On the left side of the sanity bell curve
Cara got a toddler bed yesterday. As you can see from the picture, her crib is still up. I figured I was doing good by just getting the toddler bed put together. Actually, I was a fucking rockstar! That bed has eight slats. Each one of those slats has a peg on each end of… Continue reading The Bed
We have had issues with eating out with Cara since she was a tiny infant. Actually, that’s not totally right. Other people have had issues with us eating out with Cara since she was a tiny infant. When Cara was an itty bitty baby, I would breastfeed her when we went to dinner. Since I… Continue reading An Evolving Battle
Friday, glorious Friday! Actually, I don’t have that unnatural love/devotion for Friday any longer since I stay at home with Cara. Don’t get me wrong, Fridays are fine but it’s not like I get to leave “the office” for the weekend and come back on Monday. I’m rambling now aren’t I? Sorry. It’s Fuck You… Continue reading F U Friday
I am awake. I have been awake since 5 am. Cara is awake. Cara has been awake since 5 am. Do you see a correlation here? Not only did she wake up but I could here her bouncing in her crib and couldn’t help but hear the earsplitting screams. [Cara, is the screaming REALLY necessary?!]… Continue reading Short End of the Stick

I woke up at 3:45 because of an extremely screwed up nightmare involving my ex-stepfather’s house [again] and a very creepy ghost cloud thing. It took me until 5 am to calm down enough to go back to sleep. I managed… Continue reading Call-In Interview Thingamajigs
I am not an economic genius; I am a writer. [I also like to state the obvious and use brackets a lot.] The obvious having been stated, I do know that the economy sucks ass right now. Gas prices are at an all-time high, food prices are through the roof and the mei-tai that I… Continue reading She Works Hard for the Money
Cara and I went to Millington yesterday. Apparently, I am incapable of being away from Tucker for longer than 24 hours. Just to be 100% clear here, I’m not dependent upon his dumbass for my happiness but things are rather boring around here when he’s gone. [Glad we’re clear on that one cause I was… Continue reading Pool Edges and Bug Guts
I had one of those crazy hormone induced pregnancy dreams last night. This is new territory for me since I haven’t ever been one to have the three headed baby dreams or the dreams where I give birth to a cat or anything weird like that. [The only “strange” dream I can remember from my… Continue reading Bloody Dream
