danger: HOT MESS

Posted on | February 25, 2010 | 13 Comments

my apologies in advance if this post is all over the place. i’m having one of those weeks where the anxiety level about things that need to be done (blog, emails to return, dishes piling up, laundry that needs to be re-washed because it sat overnight, and OMG WHO HAS A XANAX?) is at the level where i blog about needing a xanax. ::deep breath::

man. i have been busy this week. yet the house is kind of a hot mess. but enough about me. well, not really cause this is my blog, so it is really all about me, right? that’s right. now be good little readers and tell me i’m not bat poop crazy, ok?

my mamas birthday was monday. we went out for yummy chinese food and Harper decided since she is a big girl now and all, that she wouldn’t do the same thing to GG that she did last year, which was spit up all over her. yay Harper! and happy birthday GG! i love you so much mom!

i’ve been trying so hard to craft this week, but it just isn’t working. swear on johnny depp, i am going to tonight. i have my wine corkboard almost done, but alas it sits on the dining room table, begging to be blogged about in a tutorial. i have 4 million trillion blog ideas in my head but none are coming to fruition because i’m so busy searching the internet for xanax (i keed i keed). i have a few blog awards from a few lovely ladies but can’t seem to find any time or energy to properly accept them (but i really appreciate them!). what i’m saying is I’M CRAZY.

now that we’ve established that, i have a few things to say. i will use bullets to ensure my head does not explode.

  • i am buying my BlogHer ticket this week. because of you guys. i am so far beyond appreciative of your generosity. if any of you still would like to see your name on my shirt/donate a buck or two, the button is over there ———————->
  • my rooming situation at BlogHer is going to literally make my face fall off from excitement.
  • i’m number 2 on the Top Baby Blogs, again because of you guys. thanks for clicking, i really appreciate it.
  • i like cheese. preferably parmesan eaten straight up. this will inevitably make kenny from smonkyou send me mean messages.
  • feeling completely crazy because i emailed The Bloggess (who do i think i am? really.) and she hasn’t written me back and omg, what if she was totally creeped out by my email (subject: i love you) and hates me and has already called the authorities and runs screaming when i see her at BlogHer and omg I DIE!

if you’re still reading (and bless your heart if you are), here are some photos from this past week or so.

photo summary : my mom rules and is precious. nora and harper = cute. my friends are amazing.

post summary: i’m a raving lunatic. i am also over dramatic.

    I think my head already did explode… or it’s just a sinus infection, but I prefer to believe that the reason I have an oozy face is from my supah excitement over Blogher and my roomies and hot dreams of cupcake snuggies.

    That child of yours Mandy, is way too cute. Seriously I am a total creeper b/c when you post photos, I just stare and wonder how one little being can be SO cute.

    And you know what? Being crazy isn’t that bad ;)

    Oh my God, I have that SAME “I’m the craziest human ever” feeling every time I email another blogger!!! I usually preface my emails with “I’m not crazy” which in retrospect, probably makes me seem more crazy!! Oops.

    OK Dude, so I relate to this on so many levels it’s ridiculous. I have a half-painted canvas in my dining room that I’m almost certain as an inch of dust on it. I have music that I am alegedly going to record, but I don’t think I’ve picked up a guitar in a month. And I’m pretty saying this (or typing rather) aloud really isn’t going to get me fired up to do anything about it because at the end of the day all I want to do it drink a beer and catch some R&R with the GF.

    Speaking of which, how’s your man and that darling little girl of yours? I LOVED the video and the pictures above are amazing. I really like to the ’60s vibe they have too.

    Love and miss you.

    My email is borked, plus I only answer it when I’m drunk. Did I respond? Was it about kittens? Are we still talking? This is why I shouldn’t be allowed to mix with real people.

    PS. See you at Blogher! Come find me in the bathroom.
