On the left side of the sanity bell curve
So many things to write about today. Topic #1: My TV is possessed. Yesterday morning Tucker got Cara out of bed and turned on the TV to catch some cartoons before he got ready for class. When I finally got my ass up and made my way into the living room, Tucker and the kid… Continue reading Demon TV, My Cervix and a Big Ball of Solidarity
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
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
Vote St. Louis so that I’ll only have a 4.5 hour drive next year with my pissed off husband, pissed off toddler and pissed off infant. Click here to vote! Here are the voting results in order from lowest number of votes to highest: Omaha – 26 Las Vegas – 52 San Fransisco Bay Area… Continue reading Vote St. Louis!
I have been relatively sane for a while now. I attribute this temporary sanity to the fact that I’m pregnant and pregnancy seems to agree with my brain. Sure, I’ve been a tad more angry than I normally would be but it’s not like I’m constantly pissed off [just on Fridays from now on]. But… Continue reading My Website is Aptly Named
I try telling myself that I’m not constantly pissed off this pregnancy, but alas, that’s a big fat lie. Something about this fetus makes me ready to go at the drop of a hat. [Don’t fuck with me; I’ll cut ya.] Hence the post about the baby shower and hence this post. We went to… Continue reading Family Bathroom
Oh my Jesus it’s been one of those days! My OB appointment was uneventful as expected. My weight hasn’t changed since three weeks ago which prompted my OB to finally measure my fundal height [Why does that sound dirty to me?] and lo and behold I’m measuring just fine – 1 week ahead to be… Continue reading On a Day Like Today
I am so utterly pissed right now. Pissed and hurt. To make a long story not as long, my dad sucked as a father. He missed “his weekends”, probably molested me and he stalked my mom. I’ve gotten (or am getting) passed all of that as best I can. Several years ago, Dad remarried. His… Continue reading Stupid Dad
I’ve got a story for ya. When Mom got here on Saturday, I very quickly explained our routine with respect to Cara’s bedtime. Bath at 7 pm. Boob and then bed by 8 pm. No matter what. If she woke up in the night, I was to be the one to check on her. Mom… Continue reading My Mom Rocks!
Dead car batteries suck. Plain and simple. I rented that carpet cleaner yesterday and I had to take it back today before 11 am. Of course it had to be raining, so strapped Cara into her seat and then went back for the carpet cleaner. [damn thing weighs a ton!] We got to Home Depot,… Continue reading Dead Car Batteries Suck
I turned off the baby monitor this morning. When? Yeah, not so sure about that little detail. I know that I turned it off after midnight since that’s when I broke Harry’s spell on me. I woke up this morning at 7:30 and Cara was pissed! Her door was closed and I could still hear… Continue reading Worst Mom Ever!
