i hope this orthopod gives me better drugs than vicodin.
if i have to go in an MRI tube, i will lose my shit.
whatever, my shit is already lost.
i should start packing for seattle/portland trip.
returning from THE TWINS trip with 24 hours to repack and head out west for 10 days.
10 days no magoo.
cue tears.
but yay, cuz i’m getting this tattoo!!!

rowan tree branch (paul's birth tree)
dad will not like that i’m putting it on my arm.
“rut ro reorge.”
i’m an inked mom.
i LOOOOOOOVE being an inked mom.
no, i don’t see myself going back to teaching.
my master’s degree will not serve a purpose in the future.
i’m a writer.
i have 4 book proposals going.
i just started writing fiction!!!
holy crap, can’t believe i just wrote that.
I’M WRITING FICTION!!!
i’m stoked.
i’m a mom.
i’m a writer.
i’m a gimp.
dammit i better not need surgery on my knee.
*big sigh*
how do people do this with more than one child?
honestly?
how?
oh, and how do people do this with their placenta???
tom… katie… suri… scientology… whut???
no, i didn’t just say that.
eyebrow wax thursday.
CANNOT forget that.
i need an agent.
really need to get on that and make that a priority.
need to call in some favors…
need to have my fuckin knee not make me want to drive an ice pick through my eye cuz maybe that would hurt less.
don’t trip over baby gates.
don’t get your foot caught on the handle of the baby gate as you step over it.
just take the damn thing down to walk into the next room.
sure, it might be more of an effort… but heed my words you parents of not-yet-toddlers.
don’t trip over baby gates.
seattle/portland bloggers, i will be out there oct. 17-27th.
let’s hang.
i think i’m running out of last minute favors to ask of my mother-in-law.
seriously. she should start running a tab on me.
i’ll have to be bed-ridden the next three days in order to help with THE TWINS come sunday.
oh i can’t wait to see my rach.
nana will have three straight days of magoo… and then return with pops to have 10 (yes, TEN) straight days of magoo while i’m out west with paul.
i’m a spoiled bitch.
can i ask for percocet?
can you ask for stuff like that? just out right ask for it?
i mean all they can do is say “no,” right? and then look at you like you’re a pill-popping-mom-junkie.
awesome.










Holy hell woman. I adore you. But you just made me need a nap. :0)
Okay, here’s the only two things I can give advice on. One, Amazon has cards and gifts and they can be sent to you IN THE MAIL overnight. No need to leave or go into a store. Two, you can ask for better drugs. Drugs that are a bit stronger. They might not give you a ton, but they will give you some.
That tattoo will be beautiful.
Sorry to hear about your knee! I’m guessing it was a attacked by a baby gate?
Soo funny. I’ve got a draft post with the placenta bear in it too…Like it would be rude NOT to somehow work that into your blog right? Crazies and their placenta keepsakes…
I love you so hard right now (and your lurvely ottomans, too). <3

Hope the orthopod can give your some relief. Definitely ask for better drugs.
That tattoo is going to be beautiful. Can’t wait to see a picture when it is all done.
You are awesome period. The way you wrote that is totally the way my mind works. Awesome.
dude. are you sure you’re not taking your pills cuz of Magoo? LOL j/k. this was interesting to read!
i may have become tired reading this…you must be fucking exhausted!
Shit. I need a nap.
Hope that’s a BIG fan. Wow.
Loving the ottomans and hope your knee feels better.
love this!
um….what’s a birth tree?
Wow. I kind of love the non-linear nature of this post. Will forgive you for the “cussing.” Just this once. Love the ottomans
Great ottomans. I hope you got better drugs.I can wait to see the new ink. I get my first tattoo soon.
I am tired now. Wow. But I love it.
And just so you know, I love the fact that you have your wrists inked. Very cool.
Hope your knee feels better. And good luck with the book proposals- can’t wait to hopefully hear all about it soon!
welcome to the inside of my head! different subject matter, though. except for the part about the percocet.
you’re a rockstar. i can’t wait to read your fiction.
thanks for the snorgles today

My head is spinning and I feel the twinge of a panic attack headed my way. Good grief hon. You are going to be BUSY!
I hope you got better meds. Also please send link to ottomans. I must purchase for my house.
Loves you.
You sound like you need some Perc. Stat.
And an eyebrow wax, apparently?
Wanna come help me with my twins, too?
Knee: Please get better.
xoxo
enjoy those twins, but don’t overdo the knee. i miss when my girls were babies.
can’t wait to see the tattoo. i still want more, but will wait to figure out exactly how i want to do it. maybe 6 tally marks on my wrist. who knows? where are you getting yours?
jealous of 10 days in pnw. i want to hit up portland so badly.
