I find that anymore it's too easy to lose myself in expectancies and expectations. I find an idea or a possibility and want to hold onto it as though it's somehow real. Too often I find myself discarding rational thought that would force me to realize that I can't grasp the illusive and fluid - believing instead that if I somehow cling tightly enough, sheer will alone could turn the intangible

Facebook... sigh

2011-02-15T05:00:00.001-05:00

I have a confession: I have this Facebook friend that drives me absolutely insane. You know, I think we all have a friend like her. She's the one with all the drama (and it can't be normal drama it all must be waaaaay over the top) and is constantly begging for attention and compliments. Usually I delete the crazies... but I didn't delete her. Instead, I hid her from my news feed and once a

That Moon Is Hers

2011-02-14T05:00:00.003-05:00

Last night, Bug discovered the moon. She's noticed it before and seemed interested in it, but last night she DISCOVERED the moon. That moment, as she pointed to the sky and asked, "what's that?" is, hands down, the most wonderful moment of this year so far. To see the awe and wonder on her sweet face as she stretched her little arm as far as she could and pointed. She wanted to touch that

I have an awesome friend and she's still somewhat single this year for Valentine's Day. She has six beautiful children with this douche bag husband. This dumb-ass really likes running around on her and she put him out on his ass about two and a half years ago. The only nice thing to say about this guy is that he still pays all the bills, is still putting her through college, and his SIX

Currently, I'm blogging with my tinfoil hat firmly in place. It's in the shape of a big 'ol floppy, straw sun hat. (I insist on sweet southern summer beach fashion) I also have the tv on the "snow" channel to create an annoying background noise for anyone who might be trying to listen in on my thoughts. Did you catch that? no? Watch it again but pay close attention from about 15

On My Way

2011-01-26T15:35:00.000-05:00

Like so many I know, as the new year approached I started pondering the resolutions I would make for the new year. Oh, I had some great ideas and I'd tell you all about them if I could remember them. I'm certain there was something in there about losing weight and quitting smoking (again). Definitely something about saving more money and being more organized. I vowed to list ten resolutions

love/hate

2010-08-28T05:42:00.004-04:00

Know what I hate?When it's three in the morning, I'm exhausted but can't sleep, rubbing my eyes and realizing I didn't wash my face for bed yet and that I just smeared eye make-up everywhere. Know what I love?When it's three in the morning and realizing I don't give a damn that I just smeared eye make-up everywhere, because everyone that matters is sleeping. I need some ice cream.

Witty Title Here

2010-08-26T03:24:00.007-04:00

Facebook is great... ish.All sorts of people I know, knew, met once, met on the web, and have 50 friends in common with but can't remember who they are - brought together on my wall so I can know who is taking a shower when, what's for dinner in 75 homes around the world, witness messy divorces/breakups, vague updates begging for comments, all the passive aggressive status updates I can handle,

2010-06-29T03:17:00.008-04:00

I am NOT beating my child.But it certainly looks like me (or somebody) is beating her.I'm scared to death to take her out in public right now. I just know someone will take one look at her and assume the worst and we'll have to deal with Child Protective Services or something. Or, God forbid, i run into someone we know and the rumor mill gets started. (sometimes it's like High School here on Camp

It was such the exciting night here at Hirsch Manor last night. We ordered a stroller... from Sears... online.I didn't even get dressed, yo. Don't be jealous of the party that is my life. This is just how we roll...sloooooowly.yes, this is my post.

Holy Shit Yall!I just saw that my blog reached my goal of 10,000 hits in under a year. My secret, self-indulgent goal for my little corner of the web was 10,000 in a year, but while I was off sulking and licking my wounds y'all whipped me past my goal in just over 10 months (from when I added the newest counter). THANK YOU!!I totally love y'all.

Sunday Confessional: I'm Fat

2010-02-21T03:00:00.001-05:00

I'm fat.There, I said it. I thought it might actually be liberating in some way... it's not. I thought perhaps I would feel extra motivated with this confession... I'm not. I was hoping that telling you this I would feel more secure in my own skin... I don't.I keep trying to convince myself that it's acceptable to look like I do because I've "just" had a baby. Well, I "just" had this baby

Pooping in the Field

This should TOTALLY be a TMI Thursday post... but it's not. The Marine has been gone this week field training. Hopefully with any luck, he will be home tomorrow... However, I am a realist and this is the Marine Corps and the only thing I can be 100% certain of is that he will be home, at least once, this year. It may be to gather more gear, but he will make an appearance...I hope...As usual,

2010-02-03T05:27:00.003-05:00

For some unexplainable reason I had an incredible urge to start this blog with, "Hi-de-ho Neighbor Tim" What?I said "unexplainable" don't look at the screen like that.AnystinkeyeI took like a week or so off. I needed to because I'm LAZY and while I maybe might could have had a blog idea almost... I didn't feel like sitting my ass down and writing it. NOT sorry. I really needed that week-ish

2010-01-20T02:13:00.004-05:00

You know, I'm pretty proud to say that I've made it almost 7 years without killing the Marine.This could change soon.I'm kidding ...mostly.I'm fairly certain all you normal people have something that your "other" does that drives you absolutely insane. While I feel that I shouldn't complain, I'm going to anyway because the Marine has started this new little thing that is going to land me in the

2010-01-16T00:01:00.002-05:00

This year I was going to skip the obligatory Christmas post. However, I have received several emails asking when I'm posting pictures of Bug's first Christmas and asking how it went.Christmas was wonderful. Although, I'm certain Bug won't remember anything about it, she still had so much fun with all the festivities. She's just turned 4 months old and I love this stage: everything is new and

On July 4th of this year, the Marine and I will be married 7 years. (Exactly what is it that am I supposed to be itching?)A little background?I'm not the type of girl that likes to be the center of attention.I'm not a fan of presents, they make me uncomfortableI'm not one for overtly romantic gestures.I don't really care for flowers... they die and then I feel the need to save the dead flower as

Toy FAIL

2010-01-12T00:01:00.003-05:00

Before I had Bug, I failed to realize what an endless source of entertainment children's toys are... for me. I have the most fun cruising aisles checking out all the neat things for kids. I am forever on the lookout for that funny toy that is titled oddly or just doesn't look quite right.For example:Yep... every kid needs a Peek a Boo Bee. Well, I've seen some pretty funny stuff, but nothing

4 Months

2010-01-03T01:40:00.002-05:00

I think I prefer my state of denial when it comes to my daughter growing than the actual reality that she is growing and changing so much everyday. It doesn't seem possible that she's 4 months old today.So much has changed in the 2 months since I last updated on what Piper is teaching me. She spits up a lot more and in greater quantityShe's discovered her feet and talks to them like they are
