Life Savers
My head is ready to explode. We’re on day seventy-fuckin-eleven thousand of discussing The Process From Hell. Out of today’s 6 meetings, 4 of them are about things that should have been decided in April.
No. Seriously. Are you amazed that I haven’t been arrested for murder yet? I am. (Mr. Hot is just grateful, because he’s the only one close enough to kill.)
It’s 1:54 pm - late enough to bring the vodka and the ice bucket to my office, dontcha think?
Luckily, between banging my head on my desk, flipping the bird to my phone, and pushing the mute button to scream “ASSHOLE”, I’ve been able to look through my list of new commenters for August. They’re the only reason I’m still sitting here at my desk - otherwise, I’d be in my car on the way to Chicago to smash some heads together.
So, if you’re on this list - thank you. You saved some lives today!
- Jason from The Jason Show, is apparently obsessed with belly buttons. You MUST read his story.
- The Vaguely Vegetarian, Teeni, has beautiful barefoot sandals in her gift shop. She’s sharing her breast reconstruction in a special series.
- Jenny’s favorite roses are pink. She also writes and shares her travels with us over here.
- Soleil in her little corner also writes a pregnancy blog!
- Making me hungry every time I stop by, the Skinny Fat Chick is also a book fanatic. Great book list!
- Karen shares life on the road as a Fab Grandma. Associated Content thinks she’s fab, too.
- The immortal Claudious at Lucid Reality gives us beautiful stories.
- The Angel Forever is a stay-at-home-mom with two little boys. And the only one I know whose son asked this question!
- Daisy at Compost Happens talks about weeding, coffee(!), 3 bunnies and 2 kids. She highlights her creative writing here.
- My neighbor girl Tuli (who I’m demanding be my next blog meet-up) tells us how she picked her “Defective Typewriter” name.
- Morningside Mom Caroline is another liberal mom with my worries. She wrote a great job description!
- Whiney Momma is a woman after my Pino Grigio-loving heart. I loved her confessions.
- Now Jenn, on the other hand, hates wine. But likes green. And she recently hit 100 posts.
- Fiesty Charlie is an artist on canvas and with words. She was featured in this amazing book.
- Sally is a great grandmother! Sharing her 7 things.
- Brie knows Crown Vintage shoes. Pssssst - I think she makes jewelry.
- Completely unique Melissa wrote her mother a beautiful letter.
- Fishing Around is spending the best years of her life in the middle of nowhere. #41 here cracked me up!
- New Mexican redhead, Elise, is living an adventure. And her Etsy shop is going to get me in trouble.
- With an entire category devoted to vaginas, Kim provides laughter along with her delicious recipes.
- FH, the Fashion Hobo rants about fashion, but she has awesome taste in shoes and purses.
- Mel is a new haiku-er. On a Mission.
- Shopgirl is stalking Playboy bunnies (or being stalked by them?). Her real name is Jill and her dog is Daisy.
- Curlatini, Esq. is officially Incorporated. And fully aware of how annoying Admins can be.
- kouji is writing a haiku every day. This one sings to me.
- I guess I’ll have to believe Elizabeth when she says my cancelled flight isn’t personal. She can out-run me, but I’m stealing her running playlist.
—- And then there’s Whiney Sooky Laa Laa - who swears she hasn’t commented before and deserves some props. I say she needs to get way more creative than that. —-
