I don't own a t.v. I do have a computer and the interwebs. I stream shows I like from Netflix (thanks, Nicey-Nice Lady!) and [gasp] occasionally stream new episodes illegally. I generally do not read or listen to the news, see commercials, or watch movie previews. My life is better because of this. The products…

– writing *huh* and *hug* have two very different connotations that spell-check cannot save you from. #gladIedited #metime #austinburgrules – I want a shirt with the word "coach" on the back. I feel like people (especially random ones on the street) would really respect my authority that way. – why haven't I tried screenprinting? It…

I highly do not recommend…

While scooping some Amish Peanut Butter out of a bowl with my bare hand (we ran out of graham crackers!) and clicking around the Interwebs with the other, I have discovered some things that might have been better left undiscovered (besides nutritionally-unfulfilling, peanut-flavored spread). HTHB reminded me about Hello Giggles. It is not interesting and nobody…

– a birthday! birthday! party for the oldest and the youngest Bratt offspring. How the hell do you have birthday parties for children whose birthdays are close together? And what the hell is a good way to open/deal with presents? I hear there are three options: have a present-opening orgy at some point during the party…

– while perusing pictures for a post last week, I discovered a few people are very confused about what Patrick Swayze looks like. this makes me laugh… george clooney maybe he's in the car? – sometimes you have to dress up like a princess and do some swivels with your tongue sticking out.…

People often say to me, "I don't know how you do it." I'm not sure it's a compliment or not or what exactly "it" is, but my reply is always, "I don't think about it." The life I have is not quite the life I expected. I never expected to have children, or even really…
