Just like going back to work after six weeks, everyone expects you to be...

Ready. Set. Go Make Babies
Got the email to book our flights for Friday into Laguardia. Then a train into Bridgeport CT and cross our fingers that the embryo transfer(s) goes well and takes.
I’m trying not to get too excited. Wanting this for a very wonderful deserving couple is nerve racking and since the process isn’t perfect and Jen’s body could reject an embryo in her body that isn’t...

I gravitate towards conflict. I don’t invite it but I never back down from it. I will run not...

My house is music
I have two computers and an Ipod playing music. All different songs. Birthday songs. My favorite songs. Happy songs.

True story
morrowplanet:
Very likely the most amazing moment of my life was the first moment I caught a glimpse of my daughter’s head as she began to crown after a long, confusing, and frustrating labor.
Let mama rest a little, baby girl, then get moving, but don’t tear ass.
(See what I did there?)
Same. Only when my daughter’s head began to crown I said, “oh look an ice cream...
I don't know how I got home
63 miles from KC to Topeka. I laughed from work, right into my garage. I had to pull over. Twice.
