Keeping It In The Family…

Whirlwind has been really interested in marriage lately. Stupid Disney Princesses. On our way to dance class the other day, she announced for probably the 9th time in three days, that she wanted to marry her brother, Baby Bot. I told her, “You can’t marry…

The Life of A Super Model Sucks…

Around the time I got pregnant with Baby Bot, I quit exercising.   So, its been about three years since I have gotten my “sweat on”. Four weeks ago, I started exercising again. I feel really good. Honestly. Seriously, I am not feeding you a…

My Ratty Old Underwear…

I’ve been embarrassed plenty of times by Whirlwind. Like the time she wanted to talk about my Big Vagina. Or the time she kicked me. How about the time she pulled up my dress at the dessert bar? Though my favourite has to be the time she wanted to talk…

Fat Girl on Halloween…

I don’t like Halloween. It’s not the scary movies.  Which I hate.   It’s not the hangover from mini chocolate bars.  Which I love. It’s the dressing up. It is so not my thing. It’s because I grew up as a fat kid.  Halloween stressed…

Trying To Have A Baby…

The other day I was having a conversation with my Mom about, “trying to have a baby.” She said she always thought it was really funny that now a days, people talk about “trying to have a baby” or they make a big announcement about…

Lola Versus Review…

I love my job. I love pop culture. And I love that I work at such a job where it is required to keep up with what is happening. I love that I can run and tell a co worker to “Hurry and get your…

Fifty Shades of Grey…

I couldn’t do it. I could not get through it. I have failed to finish Fifty Shades Of Grey. I am a failure. I am sorry to have let down all woman kind. I mean, if anyone was going to read this book, it would be…

Dear Friend….

I’d like to introduce you to my first Guest Blogger, Catherine.  I’m not exactly sure how I started to follow her blog, the dabels divulge.  Let’s just say it happened organically.  If you call blogging, facebook, and twitter, organic.  We share a love of trash t.v,…
