Bob. My Tattoo. 2007-07-02 21:17:00 Yes. I name everything. Everyone, this is Bob. He's my tattoo. I'm posting pictures of him because I told Kate at Electric Venom that I would. So, here he is. Bob's on my back, right in between my shoulders. The weekend that Tucker and I got married, I decided that I wanted a tattoo. I went into the tattoo shop expecting to get a "tribal" dragon. I had no idea what I really wanted, but I
She's Asleep and I'm Sad. 2007-07-02 19:37:00 I just realized that I have been sitting here looking around the Internet and writing my "opinion articles" for the past hour and I haven't heard a peep out of Cara. I was really skeptical about the "Ferber Method". When I say skeptical, I mean to say that if you had told me three months ago that I would use it I would have said "No way in hell!". Then again, if three months ago you had told me
Scooter's Free and I'm Going on a Trip 2007-07-02 18:55:00 Lewis Scooter Libby is free! That's right, folks. No jail for Scooter. Pres. Bush has commuted his sentence. Since Scooter wouldn't be staying out of jail pending his appeal, Bush gave him a get out of jail free card. This is what Pres. Bush had to say: “I respect the jury’s verdict,” Bush said in a statement. “But I have concluded that the prison sentence given to Mr. Libby is excessive. Read more:Going
Do You Need a Hotel? 2007-07-02 17:25:00 Sponsored Content: Cara and I are going to Tallahassee tomorrow to visit with a really good friend of mine. Since it's a heck of a trek, I am considering staying the night. I searched for hotel reservations on Hotel
Reservations.com and honestly wasn't expecting anything to be available since the Fourth of July is coming up but I was wrong. I found motels and hotels starting at $44.00 and
Ashop Commerce - A Leader in Shopping Cart Software 2007-07-02 17:05:00 Sponsored Content: When I was trolling the Internet, I happened upon Ashop Commerce. Their web site said that they are a leader in shopping cart software and I had to put them to the test. Since Tucker's Dad runs his own business and I have been on him for the past three years to take his business online, I sent him to Ashop's web site for him to give their demo a test run. One of the main Read more:Leader

Doctor Bombers, Diane Rehm and Baby Steps 2007-07-02 11:40:00 So did you hear the one about the doctors who were also terrorists? It's a good one. I was watching the news about the Glasgow airport crap this morning and heard the strangest thing. "The suspect is believed to be employed as a doctor at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital". What?! Apparently Dr. Mohammed Asha, who was arrested on Saturday and Bilal Abdulla were both doctors. How's that for a Read more:Doctor

Bikinis for Babies?! 2007-07-01 18:16:00 Isn't this the cutest string bikini you've ever seen?! I was over at Strollerderby yesterday and saw the title "String Bikinis
For Toddlers". I had to do a double take. I found myself thinking, "That's for a BABY?!" If you want your daughter to wear it then that's fine for you and that's your choice. But I have an issue with putting my daughter in something with that small amount of fabric. This Read more:Babies
Wedded Bliss...or Not? 2007-07-01 14:47:00 Since I'll be married three years tomorrow, I've started thinking about this whole "married" thing and what it means to me. The whole idea that marriage is work and that no one can be happy with the same person all the time are ideas that Tucker and I hold near and dear. We both feel that if you go into marriage expecting it to be all roses and wine then you're going to be Read more:Bliss
Happy Anniversary and Stuff 2007-07-01 08:55:00 Tomorrow is my anniversary - 3 years. (This is Tucker right before I met him) It's been the best 3 years of my life. (How cliche is that?) When I met Tucker, we were both in college. The first time I saw him was at his fraternity house; my sorority sister introduced us. I remember thinking that he was the guy I was going to marry. After three months of chasing his ass, I finally convinced Read more:Happy

Blogsvertise 2007-06-30 16:49:00 Since I'm doing the whole "stay at home" thing with Cara, I am definitely not raking in any cash to help pay the bills. When I heard about Blogsvertise, I thought, "Finally! A way for me to make money and stay home with Cara. All at the same time!" As a part of the "approval/review process", I'm writing this post to give you the rundown on Blogsvertise and basically show that I know that there
Because Your Dog Needs a Shirt...or a Thong 2007-06-30 13:56:00 It started because I wanted a bumper sticker for our SUV. You see, we have a bumper sticker "fetish" of sorts and I figured that it would be extremely cool (for me anyway) if we had a bumper sticker with my blog's URL on it. BEWARE, kind reader. Cafepress.com is extremely addictive. What started as a quest for one little bumper sticker quickly turned into a smorgasbord of merchandise. So, if Read more:Needs

Spoken Word...But Give It a Chance!!! 2007-06-29 12:16:00 I know what you're thinking. Woo hoo...spoken word [read with a not so small amount of sarcasm]. BUT, give this one a chance! Come one. What do you have to loose? This is Andrea Gibson performing "Blue Blanket" and it's some pretty powerful stuff. Thanks inchoate, for posting this on your blog and getting me interested in spoken word that doesn't suck. Read more:Spoken
Going Bananas and Flinging Poo 2007-06-29 09:51:00 After writing my "manifesto" yesterday, I decided to keep today's installment simple. Five things I'm going bananas over and five things I'd like to fling some poo at. How's that for simple? Going
Bananas Over: #1 My Child Cara's sleeping through the night (finally!), she's taken a couple of steps on her own (not half bad for 7 months, 3 weeks and 5 days) and she's thrilled to see her Dad
Ann Coulter and Why You Should Quote Fairly! 2007-06-28 09:40:00 I'm pissed. I never thought that I would be writing in defense of Ann Coulter
. Actually, I'm not so much defending Ann Coulter
as I am bitching about only half of a story being told. Coulter's words have been taken out of context and twisted and that pisses me off. When that happens to ANYONE it pisses me off. I haven't read any of Miss Coulter's books and before today, I had never actually Read more:Quote
Better Late Than Never...Maybe? Bite Me! 2007-06-27 11:59:00 Kate, over at Electric Venom, has done another "Bite Me" and yet again, I am a day late and possibly a link short. So, I'm gonna do my darndest to get this amazing computer crap to work. Please stand by. Little bit of randomness...after my long post about the wonders of making my own baby food and the horrors of the pre-packaged stuff, I would like to tell you what Cara and I had for lunch. Read more:Maybe
Organic Baby Food, Puke and Politics 2007-06-27 10:00:00 I got a Gerber coupon flyer in the mail yesterday. You know the ones that are addressed to "Current Occupant"? It made me feel special. Anyway, on the back is a picture of an ADORABLE asexual baby smiling over a bowl of fruit with the tag line - Taste the Organic
Side of Gerber. To add to the prestige of Gerber's new line of USDA Certified Organic baby food was the line "Available at fine
Not Father of the Year Material 2007-06-26 09:01:00 Guess who does NOT qualify for Father
of the Year. Any ideas? Drum roll please...MY DAD! That's right folks, he's fucked up again. You have to understand that this man is an undiagnosed paranoid delusional person. Undiagnosed since the couple of times that he's been (court ordered) to see a counselor, Dad convinces said counselor that nothing is wrong with him. My youngest little brother
I didn't mean for it to be porn! Honestly! 2007-06-25 11:43:00 Bit of funniness...random...but still funny (to me anyway). On my most recent post (before this one), I put a picture of Manet's "Blonde Woman with Bare Breasts". It's a beautiful painting and was in MUCH better taste than the bondage pic. I had considered. Anywho. I was going over the different stats on readers of my little piece of the Internet and one referring link stuck out like a sore
Boobs and What I Think About Them. 2007-06-25 10:24:00 I just got my new issue of Cookie in the mail. On the cover is a glowing thirty-something mom in a micro-mini dress with a huge rock on her hand, holding an adorable baby boy. To complete the picture perfect mom there is a cute as a button blond little girl holding onto "mommy's" leg. I read Cookie because it's an upscale mom's magazine that has tons of high-end kid's products and some pretty
Snakes on a BLOG!!! 2007-06-24 10:10:00 Damn finicky snake! As I mentioned yesterday, Tucker and I bought Henry a Juicy white mouse for Henry's weekly meal. Henry showed no interest in the mouse and the lucky little bastard was set free to explore the wild blue yonder. Last week he shed off, so I wasn't concerned when Henry didn't eat last Saturday. but, when he didn't eat yesterday, I started to get worried... Read more:Snakes
You Sicko! 2007-06-23 18:35:00 On our way to get Henry a mouse, the wonderful husband and I were listening to Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me on our local NPR affiliate. It was the "Not My Job" section of the show and Michael Moore was the guest. Michael Moore makes me laugh. I may not always agree with him but his humor and editing are top notch. The first film I ever saw of Michael Moore's was Roger & Me. It was a required film in Read more:Sicko
And then I shut the door and let her cry... 2007-06-23 09:23:00 What is wrong with this picture? Hmm... could it be the pit bull in the crib? (No child was harmed in the taking of this picture) We have a jam-packed day planned, let me tell ya. I put Cara down for a nap about thirty minutes ago. I was outside talking to my mom and noticed that Tucker had Cara in the living room. Fearing something was wrong (since she was supposed to be taking a nap, I
Go here: www.TasteLikeCrazy.com 2007-07-14 05:44:00 I've decided to NOT forward this to the new site since forwarding it was causing broken links and that's annoying. But I also don't plan on writing over here any longer. SO, if you want really cool new stuff then you'll have to go to: www.TasteLikeCrazy.com
Trying Something Out. 2007-07-11 15:36:00 Since I switched to WordPress and my own domain, I assumed that I was going to loose all of my old posts or that I was going to have to input them all manually (ugg). I was wrong about that and am really happy even though some of the old posts look weird. Anyway, I pointed Blogger to my domain and was expecting a page saying that I had moved and my new site. Wrong again. So, now I'm trying out
I guess I'll use this to notify you guys if my oth... 2007-07-17 09:51:00 I guess I'll use this to notify you guys if my other site is having "issues".
It is at the moment and I'm sorry about that, but my hands are a bit tied at the moment.
This is what my host said about the deal:
esc33 is currently experiencing general unresponsiveness and service drop-outs. The techs are aware of the problem and are working quickly to alleviate the bottleneck. Services should
New and Improved for Your Reviews 2007-07-28 10:47:00 I moved to www.TasteLikeCrazy.com, but somehow people still end up over here. So, I've decided to make this a "review" blog. I am currently reading a book for Mother Talk and will be writing a review of it once I'm finished. I'll post the review on this blog so that it won't interfere with my Blogher ad agreement. Isn't technology grand? Now, go to my other site.
Getting angry at my host. 2007-08-01 12:20:00 I really didn't want to post anything over here beside reviews.But, since I'm not able to do anything with my Wordpress site, I guess I should let you know that my Host is being an ass.They are physically moving servers right now (not sure why) and I'm having periods of offlineness.So, go get a Coke and come back in five minutes. I'm hoping it will be back up soon. Read more:angry
You're Still Coming Here? 2007-08-10 10:44:00 Howdy, kids.Why are you still coming over here?You should totally be going to www.TasteLikeCrazy.com.That's where all of the new stuff is.I've finally decided that the only time I'm going to post over here is when I feel the need to bitch about my Host. And honestly, who really wants to read that?
