    Heard on the street: “FYI, dude, the six year old talks.” and “…crack whores don’t usually wear knee highs to ply their wares…” and “I may be the only woman in America who is using an electric wand massager for its intended purpose.” Sing it, sister. Wow, I have found the ultimate DIY.

    Me too!!! I love surprises :) Hey, check out Sonia‘s new TV show!! How cool is that? An interesting question for parents. And here’s another one. I’m pretty sure Magoo and Chip are related. And Robbie and Mike are related to all of these children. You had me at Grandma Crotch.

    Thanks Melanie for passing along the tragic story at A Pile of Dog Bones. They just lost their 5 year old son in a swimming pool accident. I would imagine that words of support are appreciated, and there is also a way for you to donate to the family if you would like.

    First of all, the idea of boarding preschool crossed my mind yesterday, and that pretty much sums up my Sunday afternoon. Go do a tap dance or something for Jennifer. Go see if Archer is feeling any better. “BUT, HER BOOBS! THEY’RE GONE! HOW CAN SHE BE BREASTFEEDING A BABY LIKE THAT?!” Assvice at its…

Check this sweet photo that just screams “love.” The best weddings are the ones where the couples really love each other. And now some sweet mom love. I love those talks too. Yeah, that…

    Melanie, what a beautiful wedding you had! I’m envisioning a face-off of Sara and Andria. Head-to-head. Maybe a weekend kid-swap? At the very least, more-hyphens. Sure, we all know not to go grocery shopping hungry, but I have a new rule: Don’t read this post while hungry. You might end up using it as a…

    Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! You say potay-to, I say shit, that’s hot! This is something I’d like to find out first-hand.
