I know the stench of wet carpets
We opted out of ringing the NY with another family. Between Occupy Couch and the recent flooding of their downstairs I passed on fungicide exposure. I’m a rebel.

I'm Talented
I can piss off Tres in my sleep. And then he makes me breakfast. I struggle to understand this man.

3:30
That’s when The Rooster woke up coughing. Two glasses of water and cold medicine haven’t kicked in an hour later. Tres is blissfully sleeping. The rat in the attic isn’t.

2011 Can Go Suck An Egg
Most of it isn’t worth rehashing. Some years are like that. Maybe it’s because I lost my narrative voice for awhile. Maybe I’m just frustrated by being reminded how small that voice is from down here in Whoville. I’m satisfied that other years were far worse and there are no real horrors to cast away this time.

littlerobothead replied to your post: Men. You are just as perplexing as women. “Bacon. A little time to figure shit out. The space to fail hard. A weird hobby. Kids. A hot wife or girlfriend who’s cool with all the weird shit we’re into. Morning nookie. Evening nookie. Clean plates when we cook. Um, I think that’s it. Bacon.” …except for the morning part.

Karma Intervenes
I wrote out my feelings and thoughts. I saw what was and is. While I waffled on posting, tumblr crashed on me, taking the choice out of my hands. Fine.

Pissy Hormonal Bitch
What part of this exhausting, hand-holding, space invading week makes you think I’d be horny at 7:30 this morning? Don’t you have to go to that job (you were happy to remind me) that pays our bills? This post may self-destruct after my second cup. Probably not.

You notice I’m a violent blusher. I have no poker face.

All The Pretty Colors
I had moment alone in the lingerie department. So much variety; something to suit your general fancy. I was tempted by something red and simple. Then I got the Bat Signal and went back to work/home. Something Slipped (away) Thursday.

Four Days Of Occupy Couch
  I managed to wriggle free of The Rooster’s snuggle long enough to pick up some groceries and a thermometer.   Tres rolled his eyes when I told the boy to take his own temp. 103.4. Guess who looks like a schmuck for yelling at the kid for vomiting at the table last night?

I'm Loving All The SST STM's
However, I’m kind of gal you have to connect the dots for if you’re trying to flatter me. Speaking of dots, how about them freckles? ;)

It's As Fake As My Tree
littlerobothead replied to your post: We could fit half of tumblr in here. Wow. That was pretty fast, all things being equal. It took me two weeks to tile mine :) They sent one guy. He was smaller than me. My years of DIY and hours at the gym were checked and found lacking. It is for the best. My plumbing skills are matching only by my typing and proof reading. :/

An Open Letter From The Twins
Mr. Repairman, we are at home on vacation. We had to do laundry to find a clean bra to wear during your extended two day visit. Please leave soon so that we maybe released from our bondage.

Just Keep Swimming
I signed up for Meet-Up alerts years ago. I’ve tried a few playgroups when the kids were little, but I find wrangling a group of toddlers isn’t the social glue I was seeking. Other groups appealed to my interests, but these pesky bedtimes and Operation Always Deployed just never meshed with their plans. Bedtimes are later and Tres can manage to tuck them in. And I need a wider...

It's unnerving
Sitting on my bed, fresh out of the shower, I opened tumblr. At least three of you were smiling directly in the camera. I had the uncanny feeling that you could see me tumbling naked. I found myself squirming in modesty. My imagination gets the best of me.

I Have Two Options Left
Tres just sent pics of what he’d like for his birthday: a Boston Creme Pie and a wheel of shrimp. If my cooking skills fail, well, I have other talents. ;)

I have 13 days to figure out what to buy Tres for his birthday. My plan and all alternates have been nullified by his new iPod. Thanks, Uncle Flirty-Friend.

You were a victim of fat-finger texting. That’s what I get for trying message someone on tumblr. Sorry for the confusion.

Why I Have A Draft File
You know that thing where you start a project that leads to editing another project that makes you wonder what happened to your editing skills and you start down a rabbit-hole of run-on thoughts that don’t quite explain what you’re thinking?  Yeah, I really need the water back on so I can flush this shit away.

Tumblr Killed My Grammar
My over sharing has lead to some remarkable gaps in conjunctives, subject-verb agreement, and just plain ham-fisted typos. I cringe when I see them when you guys are nice enough to respond. Considering how brilliant you all are, I take it that you like me anyway. Thanks.
