Reasons To Have Babies
1) It’s like the next step after pets!
2) Eventually, they clean up their own poop!
3) You can dress them in tiny clothing without them chewing it off!
4) For a while, you don’t even have to buy them food!!
5) You should do this so my children will have playmates. I know you want to do it.
Holidaze
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the womb,
Every hormone was stirring, yes all in full bloom.

I’m tellin’ you what. I’m working really hard on being sane this season, but it has been peppered with emotional outbursts that have me on the very verge of straight-jacket-ery. Things that would normally just have me shake my head and move on, they set me off...
Some Facebook Game...
Once you’ve been tagged, you have to write a note with sixteen random things, shortcomings, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end choose sixteen people to be tagged, listing their names and why you chose them. You have to tag the person who tagged you. 1. I really dislike cucumbers, parsley, and celery. Other than that I can pretty much eat whatever. 2. I should enjoy it very much if...
She likes to move it, move it!
She’s a mover and a shaker. Little Colette squirms, pushes, and performs some other move that seems a bit more violent, but I can’t tell whether it’s a foot or an elbow at this point. I imagine this little thumb-sucking, naked, suspended baby doing karate chops in there. You can’t do that much damage with a foot that’s an inch long so I suppose it’s alright....
WatchOh my. Who do they think they are… Colby???
And this video sure is timely. I went and renewed my license just today!
R.I.P., Bettie Page (clickety) →
And, I would like to add that while she didn’t want to be photographed later in life… she was beautiful at 80. Jeez, I hope I look half as good at 60.
(The above linked article tells of how she wanted to remain in the public’s eye the way she was).
Don’t worry, Bettie… we won’t forget you the way you were!
Arrival of the stuff
And so it begins! Colby and I had heard that people would be giving us things left and right as soon as they heard I was knocked up and guess what- it’s true! Our neighbors, the Chapas, have already given me a bag of hand-me-down baby clothing and towels and even a freakin’ crib!!! I was really afraid I wouldn’t like it. I mean, I’m uh, way picky. Turns out it’s...

…it comes from madam India. I give thee: dooce.
I dare you to read like three entries and tell me you aren’t hooked. I submit you don’t even have to be knocked up to enjoy it.
B-Log
I’m going to be putting the log in blog today. In the spirit of Christmas (and also toilet humor), since it is December and decidedly chilly for Austin, I thought I’d share the story of Caga Tió. It’s Catalonian, so you can expect it to be different from Caca Tío, the Spanish I was told it was. That’s right, Uncle Shit. You’re probably wondering right about now...
The Whee-flex
Whee-flex:
The tendency to yell “Wheeeee!!!” right before you’re pretty sure you’re going to die.
It totally happened to me not that long ago…
Why Do Women Sleep Around?
OK, I know this is like the 3rd post I’ve put up today, but it’s just so very interesting! From Jezebel.com:

Socially-influenced common knowledge — often disguised as evolutionary theory — holds that men are biologically inclined to have sex with as many women as possible to spread their seed, while women are biologically...
BUSH APOLOGIZES! (No, seriously, click here). →
Wow. I love the first comment to this story, “Feel better, Mr. President? We don’t.”
Um, yeah. Pretty much… yeah.
“Mkkay, I’ll just eat this corn here and pretend I can’t answer any more questions now… Mmmmffff”!
Personally, I would find it pretty amusing if Mr. Bush took up binge-eating in a fit of remorse and became the next Susan...
Halfway!
Well, we made it to halfway- 20 weeks! Whoever said that it’s 9 months is a liar. It’s more like 10. I mean, we’re talking about 40 weeks, so that’s pretty much 10 months. Wait… sort of. OK, so listen to how complicated this is… They count from the 1st day of your last menstrual period or LMP. (Dude caveat: yes, I just mentioned the dreaded. You’re...
