Random Tuesday Thoughts – SLAP MY ASS AND CALL ME SHIRLEY, IT’S MY ONE YEAR BLOGAVERSARY!

What better way to celebrate my very first post than to get some random under my belt. I have to get something under there, I’m still on hiatus because the doc said I’m healing too slow. Stupid uterus (or lack thereof).
So one full year. The day I launched (previously Cool Mom Guide), I wrote about 7 posts because I wanted substance. I’ll list them below. They got like 2 comments and probably are shit compared to the awesomeness of what I write now (wink, wink) but without them, I wouldn’t be here!
- He’s Not the Greatest Dog in the World, He’s A Tribute
- Kidz Bop
- He taught me to Love Football
- My First Live Draft
- I Am Entitled to Half the Dough
- My 16 Week Challenge
- I Shop, Therefore I Am (A Mystery Shopper)
I refuse to eat anything from the ocean because I don’t eat what I pee in.
I was cooking dinner yesterday when suddenly I felt like I was going to be sick. Then I realized that the one episode my son watched of Blues Clues throughout my first trimester was on. Every time I saw that episode, I threw up (the little red riding hood one). Ugh. Thinking of it now makes me want to puke.
Sign up to learn Fantasy Football. I’m teaching it. Should be interesting.
So one whole year of slapping the web with awesome. Wow.
Want to hear what my birth year means about me (according to a Chinese place mat?)
Year Of The Snake
Wide and intense with a tendency towards physical beauty. Vain and high tempered. Boar is the enemy. Cock or Ox are your best signs.
So do the Asians know me or WHAT?
I’m back from Syracuse for now. My best friend is getting married and we’ve had wedding showers and birthdays so I’ve been back and forth. I have to take a trip to Virgina Beach to speak at the New Media Convention in two weeks (NO idea what to wear) and I’m headed back to Syracuse for the last time until Christmas the second week of October for my Uncle’s 60th birthday and Nikki’s wedding. It’s funny, I started my blog talking about my cousins wedding last year and now a year later, I’m in another wedding (even thinner than before, Sha-zam!
Have I mentioned that Keely gives good random? Keeps me coming back for more, that’s fo’ sho’.
When I was in Syracuse Ryan called me and said “I keep coming home and there’s no dinner on the table. Is the kitchen broken?”
Har friggin’ har, funny man.
My kid had to drop a solid while I was at the park last week and I had to take him in the woods while he dropped trou to try to poo. He is not only an indoor pooper, but he’ll only poo on the second floor of places. Needless to say, he ripped some good farts but managed to hold it until we walked to the rec center up the street. Then he dropped a man-size deuce.
Another day, he had to go so bad I had to stop at a friend’s house to have him go (he won’t go in gas stations or restaurants either) and my friend has a ferret, Boba. I tossed Boba in the bathroom with him to keep him company and ease his stress and it eased a monster deuce out of the both of them. Apparently, it was a magical moment between both boy and ferret.
Okay, I’ve reached my quota. This is my one year blogaversary. This is how I celebrate. Give me lovin’.

Happy Blogiversary! I didn’t know you had only been around for a year. You’ve managed to make quite a splash in just a year’s time. Bueno!
I’m kinda glad your son didn’t poop in the woods. Nature’s TP sometimes has weird bug nodules on it.

Congratulations. Looking forward to many more great posts from you. I love what you wrote about the kitchen being broken. When I’m behind on the laundry my husband (and recently my sons) like to joke that “the dressers are no longer making clean clothes”

Ok, I’m Asian, and I have to say I know you. hahaha…yeah, thanks for the applause.
I can’t believe any Blue’s Clues episodes would make anyone throw up. I remember reading an article about how many moms had huge crushes on Steve (not the new guy) because he was their best babysitter. =)
Happy one year blogaversary, darlin’! xoxo
