Why, suddenly, is my blog all wonky when viewed in Mozilla? If anyone knows what I’ve suddenly done, please let me know how to undo it!
Let’s talk about Sugar Face for a few minutes, shall we? In the presence of her big brother, Doodles, she seems to get lost in the blog. I said to Adam last night, sometimes I think she pokes me just to say, “Hey! Remember me in here?” According to Pregnancy Weekly, I have 66 days [...]
While I make it a point to never write about my work, I would like to put a little reminder to myself that when Adam is out late and I’m 7 1/2 months pregnant and hormonal, do not, repeat, do not stay up late to proofread a nonfiction book on serial killers. No amount of [...]
It’s that time of pregnancy again. The invasion of the pillows. I’ve got the wedge pillows, the back pillow, the body pillow, and of course the normal two pillows I use for under my head. Once upon a time, our little double bed seemed huge. When Adam and I bought it, we were, ah, such [...]
Once upon a time, I was a cool person. Not the hippest. Not the most cutting edge. But I had a cool life. And now? Now I can go on vacation at a quaint farm, be in a room with six adults–writers, musicians, and generally interesting grown-ups–and when I walk outside the farm and see [...]
It’s that time of week again: blogging time. I’ve decided I’d like to write about something that has nothing to do with Doodles or my pregnancy… but I’ve been wracking my brain about it all day and I’m drawing a blank. I won’t write about work because, well, I think it’s unprofessional. I can’t write [...]
I feel like every week I say, “Doodles is more of a toddler than ever,” but I swear his energy level has soared. He’s running and screeching and stealing toys and interacting with kids and generally being your absolutely stereotypical toddler. He hates being confined to his car seat and screams when I try to [...]
For all those who were, um, disturbed that we are calling our child-to-be The Occupant, you will be happy to hear that she’s acquired the name Sugar Face, due to her obvious love of sugar. When I oblige my sweet tooth–which frankly is often–she goes wild. And as neither “sugar” nor “face” is a trigger [...]
Posts will most likely be getting shorter, as, only days away from my third trimester, the third trimester woes have set in. Which means that only a few sentences into any post, I’ve got to go pee again. It tends to make one lose interest in posting much.
Adam had a black tie wedding to attend in Long Island this past Memorial Day weekend. Originally I was going to go with him, but then we started to think about it. First of all, I’d have to buy a black tie maternity dress. Um, let’s see. I won’t spend $20 to buy myself a [...]
