Calling All Babywearers

Boycott these sons of bitches.

They’re owned by Johnson & Johnson. Stop giving them your money. I don’t care that Motrin has posted an “apology” on its website. They shouldn’t have run the ad in the first place.

…don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out!


State of Alaska Division of Elections Results page

Earlier today, the lead was 3 votes. That was me, my husband, and my best friend. Every vote counts.

Every vote counts. Absolutely amazing.

By the way, this is blog post 100. Neat.

-B- over at Rhymes with Dana has tagged me, so I’m here to give you seven (7) things I learned the first month as a mother.

1 — Passing out on the couch while nursing is NOT a bad thing. It’s also not always voluntary.

2 — Seeing my gruff, manly husband melt into the most sensitive and attentive father imaginable is one of the most beautiful things on earth.

3 — Boobs will never be the same after the milk comes in, no matter where it goes from there.

4 — Skin glue instead of stitches or staples is supposedly better. Still weird to have a man’s arm inserted into me up to his elbow in order to pull my son out, no matter how you close me up afterward.

5 — Water is ALL important to breastfeeding. I must have drank the volume of the Great Lakes those first few months to stay hydrated.

6 — Coming face to face with the little alien who had been kicking and nudging you for months is more incredible and loving and life-altering than words can describe.

7 — Spontaneous fits of anxiety are going to be par for the course. You have been given a tiny little life to take care of absolutely, through every imaginable circumstance. It’s okay to let yourself be overwhelmed from time to time. Ride the hormone wave. It will pass.

All of these things were fabulous to learn, and I can’t wait to go through them all again with Milla!

I hereby tag Jen at Raising Lovies, Trin at Kaffee, Kimchi, and Me, Karo at Joon Toons, and Amy at Reconciling Dreams & Mediocrity.

A New World

Posted by on November 4, 2008 3 comments

We end the night at the beautiful beginning of a new era, a new world.

BARACK OBAMA ELECTED 44TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Tomorrow will be the first day in this new, much anticipated world. Hope and reason have triumphed, greatly, over negative campaigning, bad decisions, pure idiocracy, and the relinquishment of responsibility by so many right-wing voters who stated that God will decide the direction our nation will go.

God has cast His vote, and apparently He is a DEMOCRAT. So take that. If you happen to be one of those right-wing conservative individuals who, facing imminent and absolute failure of the Republican candidate, left it up to some abstract deity — well, don’t tell me. I don’t want to be disappointed in you. Voting is a serious act, and I feel the duty of every eligible citizen. Don’t trivialize our elections. Keep your God out of my government. Get your ass to the voting booth.

I can’t begin to explain the excitement I feel, knowing that my young son of mixed heritage can enter childhood, adolescence, and finally adulthood truly knowing that he can grow up to be whatever he wants to be, including President of the United States. We have broken the final racial barrier. We have shattered it.

We have shattered it. We have shattered the final racial barrier. We are creating a new world, a better world, for our children to inherit.

The rest of the world may finally look upon our nation without disdain, disappointment, or heavy-handed sarcasm. The people have spoken, and all raise our voices to say YES WE CAN.

We just did.
