hahahahahahahahahahahHAH! Why is rock star #17 and politician #7? I indicated on that test that I do not like working with others, really, (like in a business/corporate snense) and that I would prefer a low-paying stress-free job over a high-paying high stress one...and that made politician #7?

I got the test from un-bad

As you can all plainly see, my plan to lock up and rest for a few has failed. But, I went to the library yesterday and checked out books. and c.d.'s and more books. I picked Ariel Gore's The Hip Mama Survival Guide (HIPMAMA), and several other less hip books on parenting. I found two cute c.d.'s with songs for parents and kids to sing together. One is poems by well-known poets like WHitmand and Dickinson put to music. Dave looked at me like I'd had a second break with reality when I put in these c.d.'s....and we started listening to this song where this infant has a conversation with a zucchini. this is hysterical. First Verse goes:

"Here we lie side by side,
I'm so glad you're my size,
Everyone is so big out here.
It's confusing because
In the world where I was
I was huge, it's the truth,
Couldn't move,
And the proof is the shape of my head.
But I get ahead of myself."


It's called "Still Life With Zucchini" from the album Songs for Parents....by Kelly Fernandi

I think baby's teething for real now. Ack. He's been in a pissy mood all morning and I stink but I don't want to run water and wake him up. Is this what motherhood is...ya just stink, all the time? I sometimes think so...

I have a few new links I'd like y'all to visit, along with my favorites. Ready, set, go:

worldgurl, heckafresh, un-bad, caronblocks, ...he's really sweet: baby-jesus, pischina, kungfukitten, I heart bloodblister, she's a British mummy, yummy, that madmummy, xcitygrrlx, she's kewl AND she could kick my ass - She's Judy!

I am simply going to have that shower now and then I'm going to go read some book. Much linking joy to you!
