Randomness
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008The commentators on ESPN’s Monday Night Football suck.

Never get disgusted with the Steelers playing a boring/awful game and go to bed at halftime. They will invariably surprise you with an exciting second half win. GO STEELERS!

Tessa slept 8 hours straight last night. GO TESSA!

My 2 year old can out drama your 2 year old. Can too.

Can too.

I’ve had a post languising in my drafts file for 2 months about the loss of modesty when having a baby. I had more people touch my no-no areas in those 3 days than in the rest of my life combined. I am pretty sure they were lined up 3 deep to check the state of my cervix at one point. Random people would grab my boob to weigh in on the nursing issue. I think the guy who delivered flowers to my room might have even copped a feel. The strangest part of it was that by the end of my stay I didn’t care anymore – and I am pretty modest in normal situations.

I was thinking about what I might wear to Blissdom ’08 while I was showering this morning. I don’t normally think much about what I will wear to future events but my wardrobe choices are rather small right now because my normal clothing seems rather small to this post partum momma. And there are few occasions that I have the opportunity to wear an outfit that doesn’t include a 2 year old and a 2 month old as the primary accessiories. I quickly settled on something I knew would fit and be comfortable. It is probably woefully out of fashion – it has been 3 years since I visited the fall semi-professional corner of my closet. Sadly, I don’t really care. Let’s just hope that not too many of the bloggers attending Blissdom ’08 blog about fashion. Hopefully, Mrs. Fussypants will be too busy running the show to snap a photo and use me as a “don’t” example on her Fight the Frump posts.

Steve is going out of town for 3 days and leaving me all alone with the girls. I’m scared…hold me.

I find it interesting that many of the people who objected so strenuously to a comprehensive medical coverage bill because it smacked of socialism are now big cheerleaders for the $700 billion bailout bill.

The Amazing Race started on Sunday. That makes me ridiculously happy. Steve jokes about us going on that show. Ummm, no. I would totally be that woman everyone hates and roots against. I love to travel and experience other cultures but I hate the process of getting from point A to point B. I would whine and bitch to my husband. Everyone at home would say “why is that great guy married to that shrew?” Just ask Deanna about the time I threw my luggage down the escalator when we were coming home from Paris.

I was appalled to hear that Ben Rothlisberger’s contract is worth $102 million. I love Ben but how skewed are the priorities in our country when someone who can throw a ball well can make that obscene amount of money while teachers and social workers barely make a living wage at his age. The things we reward as a society (being attractive, acting, play sports well, etc) really disturbs me.
