October 31, 2007: Resolving not to stuff my mouth full of candy

You remember watching the Garfield Halloween special, don't you? (Oh, how I miss those cartoon specials. Is it sad that all of my childhood holiday memories include a cartoon special?) Anyway, on Halloween all I can really think about is...

October 30, 2007: About to shoot myself between the eyes *UPDATED*

A while ago I got a comment that subtly (or not so subtly, because I still remember it) suggested that maybe my baby was not napping because I was, ahem, too busy. Babies like schedules. Babies like routine. Maybe I...

I'm sitting here attempting to take advantage of PRECIOUS PRECIOUS NAP TIME, but my brain is mush. (Specifically, multigrain cereal mixed with formula, if you must know.) So I'm fluttering about the internet, as I do, and I see this...

I just found out about Free Rice through Jenny Ryan's site. How cool is Free Rice?! Indulge your inner word nerd and end world hunger! (Sort of.) Seriously. If you like words, games, competition, bragging about your SAT verbal score...

Thanks for the links, guys. I've already checked out a few and can I just say you all have excellent taste? LOVE your recommendations. In fact, reading some new sites is exactly what I'd be doing right now IF my...

October 22, 2007: What I do when I should be doing something else
Comments: 14 | Categories: Blogalicious
Instead of doing the heap of things I've written neatly on a giant piece of yellow legal pad paper and tacked to the bulletin board directly in front of me, I am doing... nothing. Surfing. Reading. Wondering why you people...

I'm giving my kid ten minutes to fuss in his crib (JUST GO TO SLEEP ALREADY) before I hop in the shower and get ready to spend the day with Grandpa, just long enough to smack myself in the forehead...

October 18, 2007: What am I missing?

I hate days like today. Where ten in the morning looks like four in the afternoon. Days like today should have warnings on the local news, you know, like when the weatherman gives you the pollen count or the smog...

October 16, 2007: Bullet points
Comments: 3 | Categories: Too much going on
Last night I was kind of sort of freaking out because I had to go to the Church Ladies mom group at 9am which is right when my kid is supposed to be napping and bring an "egg dish" which...
