Things were just not going my way last night. And I would spare the internet another rant about how waaa waaa bad my day was, except it was pretty incredibly bad in a I’m-feeling-really-sorry-for-myself kind of way and need to share it with the world. Let me start by saying we had a fantastic weekend. [...]
He just got back from running some errands mainly to pick up ingredients for salted white chocolate oatmeal cookies because the nanny begged asked very nicely for them. But, not only did he bring home all of the fattening ingredients for cookies, but, in case we couldn’t wait until the cookies were made he brought [...]
I have no idea where it comes from, but, somewhere deep down ingrained in my psyche, the desire to relieve Marc from taking care of the kid kicks in every once in a while. I will be cleaning the kitchen while they are playing in the living room and I will find myself calling to [...]
Better late than never… The first day of SXSW (last Wednesday) was just Marc and me – the rest of our posse didn’t arrive until Wednesday night, giving us a chance to take a day off, together, without the babe – the first… ever? We headed to the Mohawk to see Telekinesis!, Kevin Devine, Here [...]
For being as important as I say it is, I certainly don’t treat my morning coffee with much respect. I drink about half a cup at the optimal temperature (blisteringly hot) and regrettably let the second half cool to a foul, tepid excuse for a beverage at which point it is impossible to simply refill [...]
uh… yeah. The kid can stand from a sitting position with a little help from something to grab onto. Luckily he can’t sit-up from a recumbent position just yet, but, as soon as he can it’s all over. I don’t know if a mere mortal-baby-crib can hold him. It is shocking how a face THAT [...]
There is nothing more rejuvenating for Marc and me then a trip to the movies. Even a day-spa massage brings with it a level of expectation that often times is not met. But, with a movie (at the Drafthouse) I find that even with a sub-par cinematic presentation the experience of sitting in a dark [...]
I tried really hard to be mad at Marc this morning… We had a disagreement argument OK it was a fight about the kid’s sleeping arrangement last night. We have been transitioning him from the warm, cozy, vibrating chair (a crutch that we relied on way too long), with swaddle-wrapped-kid to -eventually- the cold, hard, [...]
Once again, Marc proves to be the dad-of-the-year. I went out for drinks with Mr. Perfect’s mom (nanny-share mom #2). We had a tequila-enhanced good time laughing about ourselves, our babies and our experiences over the past five months… not a bad way to spend a Monday evening. We of course lost track of time, [...]
It is a well known fact that I married Marc for his looks – and boy is he looking good these days! Marc is a superstar dad, as I have previously mentioned, and as his reward is that he gets to go to Fantstic Fest and that his complaining wife will not be joining him [...]
