I am a 30-something single mom in the public education trenches who secretly calls herself a writer. I'm looking to be less secretive....

Leaving on a jet plane

Sunday, June, 29, 2008

Well, not really. Leaving in my car is more like it, but I'm going to the Land of No Internet, otherwise known as a house way up in the NC mountains, and I'll be away for a few days. You won't even notice. It will be like--well, it will be like it was before I started blogging here. Heh.

Meanwhile, if you are feeling the comment love and you'd like to lend a girl a hand, please have a look at the following dilemmas and tell me what to do. If I take your advice I'll bow every time I see you (or read your blog) and call you Master.

I kid. But seriously, I’d love some input on the following:

  1. If you have children, please feel their glands, particularly those in the neck area, and tell me how big they are. If you've had gland obsession like I am currently having, please give me your experiences, as I think Minerva's glands are large and it freaks me out a bit. Okay, a lot. Also, she doesn't want me to touch her neck at all, which could mean that her glands hurt, or that she doesn't want me to mess with her neck in general (the latter is a definite possibility because sometimes she doesn't want me to touch her anywhere, or even LOOK at her).
  2. If you are a SIGG owner, and if your bottle is of the painted variety, and if the paint on your bottle has started to chip, are you continuing to use it? Why or why not?
  3. I am in need of good (read: EASY BUT TASTY) summer recipes. Mind sharing a favorite?

If you haven't read it already I would like to recommend "I Was Told There'd Be Cake" by Sloane Crosley. I'm reading it now (whenever I need to a pick-me-up after reading "The Autobiography of a Face." It's very intelligent writing so I don't feel guilty reading it like I do when I read chick lit, but it's freaknig hilarious, which to me makes it perfect for summer. writeous babe

Damn it. I was going to give her the secret government name "Baby Reba". Like yours better. Stop touching her neck. It's annoying. unless it's moving around on it's own and glowing, she's fine. Hurry home!
