Yin And Yang

If you know me at all, if you have even one shred of respect for me, do not go read this post.  Otherwise, have at it.  I should be ashamed of myself….but I’m not.

On a completely pure note that would make even Jesus smile, my good friend Kori has a shiny new, gorgeous, and deliciously ironic new dot com. There are a few tiny details to work out, but please go welcome her to the world of the big kids and tell her what a fucking fantastic job Judith Shakes did on her design.

See, there I go with the fucking first thing in the morning. Le’sigh.  The BlogHer Vancity meetup is at 1pm today, and it’s 10:21am right now, and I apparently have to go wash my mouth out with soap before this thing.  So, yeah, happy Saturday.  And thank god I don’t have Irish Spring soap in the house.  Worse than a Newport, that.

    After reading that, I love you even more. And I didn’t think that was possible.

  • Dawn

  • Jeanette

  • chicklet


    Off to read the naughty post – telling me you used the “c” word (during the BlogHer Vancity meetup) was way too tempting for me not to go asearchin…

    Thanks again for organizing the meetup. Was great meeting everyone!

    I just spent a couple hours catching up on your posts. I. love. your. writing. I’m a single woman of a certain age (but I look much younger and that IS everything, isn’t it?) I don’t even have kids and never wanted kids and yet I just love reading everything you write, especially about your adorable kids.

    I can’t WAIT until you write a book.

    :)

      @Danadd, OOPS I didn’t read that last question right. The Awl is my favorite website, not MY website. dork

    OMG! I have no idea where to begin, I am just thankful i had c-sections, but I do agree that moms rock!

  • Audubon Ron


    I will not go reading that which you have asked me not to read. Why? Because I love you. AND, (he brakes into a song in front of the BBQ pit) “Don’t go changing, to try and please me, don’t change the color of your hair…”

    Like that. You’re perfect. I don’t care what you say. Fingers in ears (HMMMMMMMMM). I’m not listening!!!!

    I recommend using a mild and sensitive soap like Dove, but if you need a really good one, Lush at the mall has some samples you can shock the female employees with by putting in your mouth right in front of them. just to test it out.
    you sailor mouth. yes, it’s early to cuss, but i’m reading this at well past midnight.

    Way to own the guest post, you are an amazing woman. Not a mommy yet but I am hopeing in the next year to have some intresting things to add about birthing babies and being a mother.. getting… well you know !! Too true about the Irish springs soap. Grams use to put it in my mouth for saying “good” words. I think if I had a choice between skol or Irish springs… I would take the skol.

    You know? I’ve been contemplating the tattoo thing at BlogHer (I just got a ticket…woot waitlist!) because I really don’t have anything particular in mind and I’m already inked.
    Now, after reading that, I think you’re even a bigger badass and I simply must join the quest to piss off our husbands.
    That was fucking awesome.

    Me on all fours when delivering my youngest? hasn’t changed a thing in the sex life except making it more righteous.

    Thanks for a great Sunday morning laugh. WAY better than church.

    Thanks again for helping out this weekend. You and Ali were my guest post saviors!

  • Kori


    And thanks for the shoutout, by the way! I am up ans running; how fucking cool is that?

  • Uli


    The guest post was Steve McQueen caliber cool. Kicked ass. Karate-chop-to-the-throat kinda cool. Levi Garrett and Guinness work well for cleaning out a shit-ass mouth as well. Color me impressed
