A couple of things.
One, I’m finally breaking some ground on planning Caitlin’s bachelorette party. Lucky for her, I’m not going to have any room in my suitcase for anything with a penis on it OR shaped like a penis. Yay! I’m probably more relieved than Caity is about this. The jury is out on the reason for this.
Two, Today at work I started daydreaming about saying to my boss “You know what? This is my 2 week notice right now. I’m going to go home and be a SAHM” But that would never happen. A) We can’t afford it B) I would get a little stir crazy, honestly.
Three, Today was my niece’s actual first birthday so there was a bbq. I didn’t want to bake another cake so I just baked 3 dozen heart shaped sugar cookies and iced them with cookie icing and threw on some sprinkles. The cookies and the icing were both from scratch. My sister-in-law’s friends began to obsess over how good they were. One girl said “She knew I had to be the one that made them, because I just *look* like that kind of person. Like a home maker.” I’m not insulted in any way, I just want to know what the heck?! What makes me look like a home maker? My first thought is that it’s my hair. I have a very “mom” haircut
The next thing I thought of was that it’s because I’m chubby this week.
Rob insists it’s because I wasn’t dressed like a skank.
Four. Rob is officially done with work (well, tomorrow) which means that the mother in law babysitting service can be put on hiatus for a couple of months. Thank God. I love her to death but I think some time apart will do James some good.
I’m really tired. I think I’m going to take a hot bubble bath and go to bed.
I’m thinking of joining BlogHer. It might help me network and meet more women I have things in common with. Thoughts?
Also, I want to rename my blog. Any suggestions? I’m not very creative.

I appreciate the not planning penises for the party. You have no idea how relieved. I think the cupcake thing is because you just look cute and like you would make cute cupcakes. I agree with Rob, too.

Caity, I can’t promise that no one else will bring stupid penis stuff. As long as you know that I had nothing to do with it

1. I love you
2. I think you look like someone who bakes too… but I always have haha
3. I’m not sure…. there is usually like a momsclub.org or something which will direct you to a group near you, but after my horrible experience last year I honestly don’t even know what to tell you, because I get leery of everyone now. Either they’re crunchy and you’re not or you’re crunchy and they’re not. I wouldn’t make the focus solely on other moms, I know why you WANT to, but don’t make it a “pre-requisite” either. Should I move to TX now?

I’m completely useless in the brain at the moment. But you look like a homemaker because you are a mommy full-time. :3 You think, eat and breathe love for James.

Neen, sure! Come on over!
Stacy, They were all moms too. It was weird.
