Duck! Here Come the Bullets!!
I have so many loose ends and half-finished posts and disjointed thoughts that I’m stealing the art of the bulleted post from Karly at Wiping Up Snot.
- Mrs. Flinger posted yesterday on a subject very near and dear to my heart. It was also the same topic that I had wanted to discuss today. Hot men!! Anyway, go tell her your top five men.
- I AM aware of the mother fricken, g*d darned problem many of you are having viewing my site through Internet Explorer. Since I’m nearly computer illiterate, I don’t know why. I hear viewing this site through Firefox or other browsers solves the problem. You can also press the back button or refresh the page, but DON’T MOVE THE BLOODY CURSOR UNTIL THE PAGE HAS FULLY LOADED or else. If anyone knows how to fix this problem, please tell me.
- Ella is twelve weeks old today!! I have not mentioned much about her lately so as not to jinx myself. I'm certainly not going to say anything now. Maybe when she's three, I'll tell you all about how at 9 weeks, she became the sweetest baby on the planet, with smiles that could melt you. I might even tell you that when we're in public, people are always saying what a good baby I have. But, for now, I'm not saying ANYTHING.
- Am I the only one with more than just a slight crush on Alton Brown? I can’t wait for his Feasting of Asphalt series to continue!!!
- You should go read this post from Mom 101. After reading it I wanted to shout "you go girl" and snap my fingers and move my head from side to side. She made me realize that as women and as writers, we should not allow ourselves to be used by advertisers (ie, google ads). We are worth so much more.
- I haven't mentioned my mental state after this post...I'm feeling much better. I'm certain that the Mini-Pill caused my sudden, uncontrollable despair. I suppose that my happier mood could be somewhat attributed to Ella's sweet disposition. But, I'm not saying ANYTHING about that.


40 People are even more brilliant:
I have a CATEGEORY 4, STAGE CREEPY crush on Alton Brown. I have watched every episode of Good Eats about 5 times, and I'm STILL TiVo-ing as we speak.
He knows everything about everything, but in a totally ADORABLE way.
Ella is just gorgeous! Those cheeks! I haven’t seen cheeks like that since Puddin’ was that size. It makes you just want to gobble her up with kisses all day I bet. I love that top picture because somehow you can just smell her sweetness in that one.
Can I bullet my comment to? okthanks
-Love Alton and love his new show. Who knew he was a bike rider and a food Einstein?
-Love Ella! Sweet thing she just looks like shes trying to smile and knows that she is all that.
I'm reading through IE and was able to view your site just fine today.
Ella is gorgeous--but I'm not going to say anything about that right now.
Hot men?! Gotta run!
PS--You were missed this past weekend. Your name came up a few times. Hopefully next year.
First, Ella of the unmentionably great disposition (shhhh)is ADORABLE.
And second, I just might steal your bullets today. My mojo up and left last night and bullets help me focus.
Thanks for the references--I'm excited about some good readin'!
I'm not SAYING ANYTHING, but what is Ella sitting on in the bottom picture? And do they make it in adult sizes? It looks insanely comfortable..
She is such a cutie!!
Funny. I was just thinking I may have to pull a Karly and put bullets in. I am running further and further behind all my half-finished posts.
Oh, and Ella? So charming. Hard to believe that a few weeks ago she was such a demon baby. I will cross my fingers that her happiness continues.
Ella is so beautiful! Seriously, she must be the cutest baby ever!
I blame it on the 230781437 links, pics and other nicnacs you have on your blog.
You're so cute. I love that baby!
I had that problem with IE too...I removed a bunch of links with the help of SciFi Dad's suggestions...it worked. I don't have this problem with firefox.
Johhny Depp. Julian McMahon. Period.
I'm bulleted today too - isn't being half braindead fun?
As for "Ella" - totally cute, though I'm not going to mention it too loudly, lest she become a zit-faced, bubblegum snapping cashier at burger dirt anytime in the next ohhhhhh 16 years.
And seeing as Firefox is my ONLY browser, I see no problems, nor do I demand that you fix any ;)
- Hmm, I never made a list of celebrity crushes. Is this something everyone does? Am I missing out?
- No problems for me viewing your site.
- 12 weeks? What? I can't belive it. She is just the most adorable little girl. And I won't mention it, but I'm glad she (and you) are happier. ;)
Awww, she is absolutely glowing- I would have never guessed such a sweet face was capable of so much hollerin'!
Glad you are feeling better. I hate hormone pills.
Your baby girl (3 months already??!!) is absolutely delicious!
I'm pretty sure the bullets are from heat exhaustion or something...everyone needs them over the summer. :)
And your little one? Oh. mah. gawd. She is one of the cutest little girls ever. I love that first pic of her. I'm sure she's a horribly rotten baby though (so as not to jinx anything).
I wish I lived closer. I'd take Ella off your hands when you needed a break. She's such a doll and I gotta get my baby fix in somehow because I'm damn sure not having another one ;)
#1 My hubby's folks have eaten dinner w/Alton Brown! I am still jealous over this fact.
#2 Glad to hear you're feeling better!
#3 We have the swing version of your bouncy chair. Have you tried it? It worked wonders for us when Cara was Ella's age.
It's works perfectly in Firefox. Are people still even using IE? Uh... get with it, folks.
Anyway, that baby of yours is so stinking gorgeous, I don't know how you accomplish anything all day. I'd be too busy just staring at her all the time.
And I love your way of "not mentioning it." hahaha
OMG...I have a post all ready in my draft file all about my true love for Alton Brown. He has taken me through many a rough, colicky night and for that I will bow down and tivo all Good Eats episodes.
That's one sweet baby....surely she doesn't cry. I am glad to hear it's getting better.
what a sweet little baby! I just want to nibble her little bean toes. Is that wrong?
Thanks for the link to Mom101's post. I am new to this and had no idea this went on. Her response was fabulous.
Will definitely check out Good Eats!
Hope all is well.
Best,
Danielle
I swear I was JUST about to e-mail you about that IE problem, then read about it on this post. WOW! We're like, so in tune with each other dude!
After writing that last sentence, I can really see how I'm going to nothing but embarrass my children when they're teenagers :-).
Cutest baby in the world.
I don't think you have too many things on your blog.
Glad you're off the mini pill.
I don't know who Alton Brown is, but since you say he's hot, I'm going to look him up right now.
A-dorable!
MmmmHmmm. That "I won't tell you about how great my kid is" thing? yea. I made the biggest mistake EVAH to say, "Oh! He's sleeping five hours IN A ROW." Fuckme.
She's just ADORABLE. I've officially found Owen an older woman to marry.
CUTE BABY ALERT!
Also, I am totally in love with Alton Brown. I would marry him.
She is adorable. Great pictures!!!
I don't get that problem with your page on IE, but I know another blogger who was having that same problem.
Ella is just adorable! I'm so glad you're feeling more like yourself and she's getting it together ... is that vague enough so as not to jinx things?
She is such a doll!! So much cuter when she's not crying! ;)
What a beautiful baby girl!
I am not jealous, I am not jealous, I am not jealous.....
And who is Alton Brown? I guess I spend way too much time on the Disney Channel.
My celebrity crush? Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But only when he is in character as Spike. He can bite me anytime...
Yeah ... I can load your full site again ... Firefox worked ... Ella's a doll. YES!!! Looks like you might just have a happy baby there ... but I'm not saying anything either. Ash
She is a cutie and I'm also a big fan of Alton Brown. I was extremely upset when they bumped him an hour and put Emeril on at 7.
So cute! Glad she's feeling better, and as a result, you're feeling better.
Mira is also starting to turn the corner and fuss less, thank goodness. May we both continue to have little girls with good dispositions and adorable smiles.
Thanks for the shout-out, mama - and snap away! Working with advertisers is like a one-night stand. Just make sure you're getting yours too and everyone walks away happy.
Are you kidding me...I have sex dreams about Alton Brown...just don't tell DH...
Oh. My. gawd. Could she be any cuter? I really don't think so.
"I hear viewing this site through Firefox or other browsers solves the problem." That is totally my solution at work. Like every day.
And Ella is a doll!
What a beautiful baby!
Gotta go read Mom 101.... tho I don't have "real" ads on my site.
Well i won't say Ella is an adorable cutie pie ok? Makes me miss the days my girls were that small and it was't even that long ago
Ella is beautiful. Truly a gorgeous baby. Tell Tate to get a shotgun. He'll need it!
