Everyone knows that I'm 37, right? Well. I am. So, with that in mind, why do I still get zits? I mean seriously people. Shouldn't part of getting old mean that you don't get zits anymore? I rarely got them as a teenager... now? All the freaking time.

I've been crazy busy doing some writing for a contributor position that I got on another blog. I was pretty stoked about it. (no I won't tell you where, because they use my real name and you never know, you could be some crazy weird stalker person!) They published my stuff this week, and pretty much the only original thing in the article was the title, my name and some photos. To say I am irritated is an understatement. I actually had someone call me and say "When did you start talking like THAT?"
Yeah.
Niiiiccee.
Isn't a contributor supposed to be another voice for a website? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that meant they wanted more than 1 voice, 1 style of writing... 1 set opinion...isn't that why you get contributors??
I am not a carbon copy trendy writer.
Nor will I ever be.
Humph.
Yeah.

Someone recently asked my mom this: "Hey! I saw Motherboard recently. When is she ever going to have that baby??"
Ouch.
I guess I am THAT fat.
Moxie is 6 months old... actually on the 17Th she turned 6 months. Clearly I still have a long way to go before I am back to not looking pregnant!
Moxie is almost crawling! She is THIS close! I can't believe how quickly the time is flying by with her. She is still a complete delight. I hardly get anything done, because I hold her and play with her... all! day! long! I like being a mom to a baby at 37 WAY better than when I was 25. I am not so uptight, I am more relaxed and I am able to just go with the flow. Things that used to bug me? Not so much any more. I just want to spend time with my baby-- cause all too soon, she won't be a baby any more.
I wish I could bottle her for people to eat, 'cause she is just plain delicious!

I'm moody. I know this, and I actually hate it. Big time hate it!
Two of my children have inherited my moodiness... poor souls.
The other two have inherited their fathers easy going nature. Lucky devils.
I feel bad for my 2 that have my moody nature... the older I have gotten, the easier it is to control. But as a teenager? I was hell on wheels. My poor parents deserve a gold medal for surviving me. And, my sisters too for putting up with me. I am trying to figure out how to help my 2 control their moodiness...
Any suggestions??
