My 15 month old daughter, N, picks up the baby doll we bought when my son was her age. I bought it in defiance of standards and expectations for boys. I bought it as proof that boys could nurture. I bought it so when his future partner remarks that he’s good with children I CAN [...]

Things I think when you ask: How are you, Alex? Dreary and futile. Doin’ the butt! WAHWAHWAH So tired I’d like to scrunch up your head like a pillow, slam it to the floor, and sleep on it. Dude, is my phone on? Where are those voices coming from? Karate CHOP! Hungry enough to go [...]

My husband has been getting psyched up about this night for weeks. Tweeting and Facebooking it up. Or he just wanted an [...]

Okay I NEVER wear thongs. And I won Best Butt back in 1995 at my summer camp so it’s not because I can’t shake it with the best of them. But I cannot handle the INFINITE WEDGY (said in a echo-y voice like in the Muppet’s Show PIGS IN SPACE). And any sentence that ends [...]

Yesterday at nap time, I read to my daughter. Like I usually do. (I’m told the award is in the mail.) We picked (I picked and she didn’t try and beat the crap out of the book to get me to drop it) Touch & Feel Baby Animals. It pretty much goes CUTE ANIMAL WITH [...]

Cracked.

June 22, 2010

in Marriage, Resentments

Me: Is that a crack in my windshield or a drop of water? Scott: Oh that’s a crack in your windshield. Me: When did THAT happen? Scott: What? I don’t know. Me: What did you do? Scott: NOTHING! It happened while you were driving. Me: No, I would remember something like that. You were driving. [...]
