Stumbled on this blog today because, frankly, Todd and I had a chat last night about the necessity to put (kidding here) some rum in Monkey Butt’s sippy cup. Man he was being a poop.
Digression.
This blog post is awesome and I actually got teared up reading it because she did such an amazing job talking [...]

This is fantastic. Bad Mommy Moments captures the pre- and post-child dilemma perfectly.
The other night my husband turned to me in bed and said, “We were really stupid before we had children. What did we do with all that time?”
I couldn’t help but agree with him. We are unanimous in our agreement of what we [...]

My grade on my final was posted – 220/250… 88%. I was simultaneously thrilled and then, yep, the perfectionist showed up in me and I thought, “What? How did I MISS 30 points???”
I know.
This glass is 88% full, not 12% empty!
So my final grade for the class was a 95.4% – firm A.

Today I am [...]

I can’t help it. I’d love to say that I’m not concerned about how the personality test went, but the fact is that I keep wondering if it suggested to them that I’m a complete mess.
And I say this because I don’t know how the darned test works. I do know that I answered it [...]
For a good time, call….

Just tweeted. I twittered. I was one with the tweets.
Yeah. I know. Time to eat – obviously the sugar-low is overtaking my brain.

I am a lazy, lazy writer when it comes to it, but lately I’ve been feeling the urge to see how [...]
The Tipping Point

I can’t even begin to think how to blog this. I’m at a point in my life where it may change drastically. Will I look back on April 28th as that moment? I don’t know.
I saw the hiring manager (KW) on campus today. It was a nice surprise to see him. He told me he’d [...]

On a sleepy, gray-cloud day, here is something beautiful from a blog I love.
Insomnia blog, edition number ?

A combination of rich and (sadly) salty food has me awake. My head is stuffy too, so perhaps that’s contributing as well.
I have a nice mug of fresh water and I’m sitting here contemplating Kate Bush. Why? Well… I love her music and it just hit me that I haven’t listened to it in a [...]

Had a lovely dinner with my guys tonight. I had to talk to Todd a bit, in between juggling the needs of the little one and keeping the big one focused. My current job is great for a parent. It offers relative flexibility and a lot of independence, even if it is career suicide staying [...]
