What A Man Wants, What A Man Needs (edited)
Sorry for abusing the title of a Britney Spears song, but I thought that it was appropriate for today's post. I came up with the idea for this post as I was about to go to sleep last night/this morning, in a seriously sleep-deprived state, and decided to go through with it this morning (after on...
Sucks when you know it's a potential looming out there, isn't it? I hope the shadow passes you by this time. You've had enough.
Thinking positive thoughts my friend.

Icons and Inventory: I Can't Be Their Dooce to My Postpartum Depression
Did you notice that? A flash. A glimpse? An unexpected swell. Olive is due within weeks, if not days. All of my emotions have settled directly into my chest and occasionally push the breath right out of me. When I least expect it, they flood upward, into my face. They cloud my vision and f...
I'm copying that Roald Dahl quote right this moment. So true.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Tea & Talk: Sue Hammond
Hello sweet friends! This month's tea & talk is here and I am so excited to have the lovely Sue Hammond here with us today! Perhaps you are already familiar with Sue's photography? Or perhaps you remember falling in love with this photograph? Wouldn't you like to learn...
What?! No hunky Aquaman? I used to think he was dreamy.
And of course now too I'm going to be thinking about that Chris Rock skit for the rest of the day. If you don't know it, you have to check You Tube. Funny stuff.

Everything My Kids Needed To Know About Life They Learned From The Justice League
Back in December, my brother-in-law gave my son a Christmas gift: a Justice League DVD. Almost instantaneously, it was lost in a massive pile of holiday debris: brobdingnagian plush polar bears, princess dresses, Lincoln Logs, multi-billion piece Lego sets, blahblahblah... plus, not surprising...
We teach our kids sportsmanship and hard work all the way through youth sports and then what happens? This why I'm a little league mom--sports in its pure state.

Things I Learned From Brett Favre
Full disclosure: I spent my 20s in Minneapolis, and loved rooting for the Packers to tweak my friends and colleagues. Church was usually canceled when the Vikings played the Pack, and whether you wore a block of cheese or blond ponytails on your head you had to respect No. 4. But that was the...
i know that feeling all too well

Should've Worn A Diaper
I'm sitting in a rocking chair in a room. The curtains are drawn, the lights are off, and a white noise machine on a nearby shelf is busy forming a protective barrier against any outside sounds that would seek to disturb the slumber of this room’s inhabitants. In my lap lays my youngest son. Thi...
Oh just wait! I went into my bag for a pen at a mtg and found a cup. As in a protective cup for one of my sons.

I Have A Mom Purse
As a working mom, I have to look relatively professional in the morning when I head off to work. Pants that aren't jeans or meant for a workout, a nice top of some sort, and shoes with heels. My briefcase may be a bit overstuffed and full of papers that I shuttle to and from work night after n...
So glad you were giving them the right advice. We're dynamic people and we like developing relationships.

"Moms Who Tech" Birds Of Feather Session at Web 2.0 SF
I was excited to carry on the conversation we had at SXSW about "Moms Who Tech" that was so lively, we just had to keep it going. On Thursday April 2, 7pm at Web 2.0 (Not to be missed conference in SAN FRANCISCO) I moderated the Birds of a Feather "Moms Who Tech" session. Details were: This ses...

I confess...
I think I am a very average mom. I do some things very well and others I don't do at all. I am usually fine with this, but every so often I feel the need to apologize, or at least confess. I confess that my toddler only gets a bath every other day, if that. I confess that I have, more than on...
