So why now?
Well, first of all, I've pretty much exhausted the facebook status update as an art form. Second, I've got some extra time on my hands. True, I have kids and a job that requires my attention - but, not that much attention. I equate my job with fifth grade math - slightly harder than long division but not quite as challenging as multiplying fractions. And my kids can finally dress themselves and [usually] wipe themselves. So, why not blog a little in between assignments and soccer practice?
So what will you get?
Truthfully, I'm not so sure. But, I can tell you what you WON'T get. Here is a list of the top things that I promise never to blog about:
1. Breast feeding - Come on, ladies. Enough on the topic already. Just do it or don't. Besides, if I hope to capture any male audience I must maintain the illusion that boobs are for their enjoyment only.
2. Cute things my kids say and/or do - True they are cute, but no one except my mom really cares. What I will do is fully exploit (for your enjoyment) the insane, bizarre and borderline demented things that they say and/or do. But, only in small doses. There is a whole world out there.
3. How much I love my husband - Also true. Also a total snooze fest.
4. Organic vegetables and pesticides - This topic has been well covered by others and no one really wants to admit that raspberries will give you dementia.
5. Cooking tips of any kind - Though I will discuss the many ways in which I burn or otherwise destroy my well-intentioned meals.
6. Breast feeding - Did I already say this? Let me just say it again... I will NOT discuss lactation, nipple sores, leakage, latches, schedules, holds or pumps. Never. Ever.
So, stay tuned, my friends. As soon as I find something interesting to say, I'll probably say it.
