Mama Always Said I's Lazy

While sitting in the waiting room at the Dr.'s office today, I picked up my third magazine from the pile. It wasn't one I'd seen before -- Wondertime is the name. I almost tossed it back on the heap when one of the article titles on the cover jumped out at me, hugged me and said, "Come on in, friend."

In Praise of Lazy Parenting


I felt all tingly. I skipped from the table of contents straight to page 74, and started reading the article written by my subconscious Brett Paesel. She's my new hero. We were separated at birth. I'm sure of it. I was so into the article that I took the magazine with me when the nurse called me back to the exam room. I almost stole the damn thing, but decided to leave it behind in the hope that some other mother might stumble upon it and find out that Lazy can be a Good Thing.

The Law According to Murphy

Today we hoofed it around The Mall. Again. I am 1 part too excited about the weather to go underground to take the Metro and 2 parts too phobic to ride the Metro as the Grown Up In Charge. The last time I was in DC, I was a whopping 17 years old and being led around by the Close Up Foundation . The biggest responsibility I had was deciding what color I wanted them to make my hair at Commander Salamander . So, we walked. And, truly we're just a few block from the Capitol. However, if you've been to DC, you know that the Capitol and, say, the Washington Monument are a smidgen apart from one another...like a mile-long smidgen. And, if you know me then you know that I am the world's number one couch potato. In fact, there are many times I don't even go all the way to the couch as it's just too far from my oh-so-comfy bed. God bless Tempur - pedic . There's a point in here. I swear. I'll get to it eventually. First, I must also explain that we had plans to meet...

Unacceptable

The only solution to my blogging debacle, to date, is the revert back to a standard template, without any of the bells and whistles that make my blog MINE. What is the point of a blog that is not MINE? How ironic is it that the NaBloPoMo theme for this month is "voices"? Today's post brought to you by the discourteous folks at Google who cannot be bothered to help the multitudes experiencing this problem. Thanks. Really. From the bottom of my heart. You guys are the best. Smooches!
