OK, NERDGASMS! MAKE ME FEEL GUILTY, WHY DON'T...

You know how I feel when I get what I want?
Guilty!
The bigger the victory, the greater the guilt.
Amen sister, but you forgot ‘afraid’!
Guilty and afraid.
Because you didn’t deserve it in the first place and it’s eventually going to be wrenched from your panicked, undeserving hands, you lie awake at night, eyes wide, heart beating fast wondering…”is this the...

Kaylee was looking at a very thick book as she fell asleep tonight. She started to doze and the book fell and the corner thwacked her on the forehead. She whimpered, I consoled, she told me what happened, and I continued to console, but inside I was thinking, “oh! Baby’s first book related injury! I’m so proud!”

Kaylee is going to start hosting spiritual retreats. You will read her books, make and eat peanut butter toast, and have wild dance parties.
Guys, Kaylee thought the SOTU was so boring that she jumped up and did an improvisational dance number instead of watching it. She danced to music she created by saying “boop” and “squeek” at various intervals. How could you NOT...

For basically saying what I couldn’t articulate. And while I really want to hate AFP because I’ve got a crazy crush on Mr. Gaiman, I personally am very proud of her for basically saying, “my record company thinks I’m too fat? Well then I’m going to show off my belly ALL THE TIME!” and I want to support the fact that she is a rape survivor who hasn’t let...

I can’t stop reading the PC thread. The Cat may be my favorite ever.
No one’s called you a criminal, except for the crowd of fascinating characters in your head. But you don’t just want to ‘recognise’ these things, you want to shout about them as if they matter more than any other feature of a person. That’s dreadfully rude, but then you’ve been dreadfully...
Another beauty from The Cat
People who whine about political correctness are just pissed off that they can’t be rude assholes without other people reacting poorly. Grow up.

LB dreamin'
I started to tweet this to you but twitter is too short for this.
SO - I had a dream about you the other night. We were moving and you were babysitting while we moved. So I dropped the girls off at new place and told you I was leaving you our car just in case you needed to go someplace in a hurry and needed the car seats. You said, “that’s silly! Where would we need to go?”

Pssst, Marcia
I know you haven’t been posting your daily fashion what you wore whatever lately because of your lack of bathroom and not wanting to take pictures at the gym or some other such nonsense, but I just told tumblr that you’re a really great fashion blog and it told me that if you turn out not to be my account should be suspended. So quick take a picture of your shoes or something.

I SHOULD NOT HAVE DRUNK THAT TEA, I KNEW BETTER.

I feel lightheaded and sleepy and I still need to probably study my Biology stuff.
What tea is this and where do I get it?
I have no idea where to get it but it’s called “Herbal Authority Melatonin Tea”. It’s some tea my parents bought and every time I make it, it just makes me uber sleepy and everything goes all hazy and stuff.
It’s orange-y-tasting...

Never give a 2 year old one and a half oreos or else you will be pondering ways to hook a treadmill up to halve your energy bill.
Ooooh, gurl.
Dance party?
Exactly. I’m trying to teach her old 60s dance moves. The monkey, the swim, the mashed potato …

sorry, guys. I was just trying to make my life...
Also: if I missed you, don’t feel left out. I probably just skimmed past your name when Kaylee was asking for the Moco Jumbie song.
Or at least wikipedia uses male pronouns for all of them.

As far as I can tell, they’re all dudes, AS. But I’m on my phone in bed and have never heard of them before so I may not be reliable.
Which is to say - I think I’m going to take the weekend off from here and just do more crazy peanut butter on toast dances with Kaylee and maybe see if we can teach Pippa some.

Isn't it always the way?
You have a day off and are taking a quick break from cleaning and playing to tumble and you think of something perfect and brilliant and life-changing to say and then someone yells, “TOAST, MOM! MOM! TOAST!” And you have to stop what you’re doing to have a discussion about how to properly and politely ask for something and then you make toast “WITH PEANUT BUTTER MOMMY! ...
Yeah IDK.

I just really, really, really envy people who always seem to know how to be socially “on” and just know how to not act a fool at parties and big social gatherings. It’s all really mystifying for me. I was the girl who ate lunch outside because having to find a place at the cafeteria and the idea of being rejected was really traumatizing.
Oh, same same same. When I go to the...

I am reading a book about Lenore Beadsman. No, really.
I’ve been planning on reading that book for ages now. It sounds really good!

Kaylee: Yes! I am silly! ... Mommy ... guess what?

My plans for tonight?
Babies asleep by 8:30
Fold a mountain of clothes that I’ve been putting off
Me in bed by 10:00
Guess who still has 2 awake babies and no folded clothes?

This is lovely and I’m blown away by her eyebrows! I have never seen that before.
Her eyebrows always look somewhat like that. She shaves them off then draws awesome in their place. I wish I had the chutzpah to do that!

I’m a sucker for a really bad review - what can I say? Especially this part:
Apparently Meyer went to school at Pablo Picasso High, home of the Fightin’ Cubists!
