I’m home alone (well, me and a pack of dogs) because Dee is at her Grandma’s house, Scott’s truck took a sh*t so he’s made off with my car, and no one appears to be on the internet, either. But I have Instagram. I always have Instagram. I’ve made no secret of my passion for this latest, greatest form of… Read more →

Things That Are Tan

Fish out of Water
After three days under the Bio-Dome of the Gaylord Opryland Hotel for the Blissdom Conference — (no, seriously…a bus driver told me that place is nine acres under glass) Sunday morning was a literal breath of fresh air as I stepped out into Nashville with Jenny and Zakary for some Honkey Tonk at Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge and a wee photo… Read more →
Life Moves Pretty Fast…And Apparently So Does a Honda CR-V
(via) Ever since a tantalizing ten seconds of a present-day Matthew Broderick as Ferris Bueller hit the web last week, speculation over “Super Bowl or Sequel” started spreading like wildfire. And then yesterday morning when the full spot was revealed I was all: “Oh, I am ALL OVER Ferris Bueller today”. But I never expected a two minute super bowl… Read more →
Park Etiquette and Picking Up Mom Friends
It’s one of those things there should be a book about. In the hospital, they show you how to get a good latch and change a diaper, but they don’t say boo about the challenges you’ll be met with as you and your little one venture out to the local park. First off there are the basic questions. Are you… Read more →
Cool or Crazy? My Gold Turban:
I’m at BlogHer, gave my first Session of the day, and am still freaked out. But more importantly, I bought this gold turban on a whim from Ban.do and I’m not sure which side of my Cool or Crazy line it falls on. Jessica and Lisa say it’s a go even with the “pajama shirts and poopie face” but Twitter… Read more →
Purgeday Thursday: Battlefield Bathroom
I feel like them theme song from psycho should be playing right now (the Game Boy is Scott’s, I swear) but that’s (was) my [guest] bathroom drawer. This is it now: Dude, not bad for a 45 minute solo effort and $12 at Bed Bath and Beyond, right? I THREW AWAY SO MUCH CRAP. We have two bathrooms, and I’ve… Read more →
Skymall never fails me.
Dog. Poop. Vacuum. Wait, wait…before you puke – think it over. It’s approximately the size of a leaf blower (that’s what she said) and it can take down three lbs of the stinky stuff in a single bag-load (wait…that’s what she said, AGAIN.) I’ve done the math. It’s roughly 8 lbs of combined vacuum and feces. If you can handle that, then… Read more →
I carried a watermelon.
Me and this blog have been having a bit of a stand-off lately. (And by lately, I mean for going on about eleven months now.) It has a lot to do with the postpartum depression I haven’t really talked about, and the crippling, silencing shame I felt while lost in that abyss, but the way it’s manifested is totally weird… Read more →
