To My Baby’s Daddy-
Thank you for giving me 60 shots in my thighs. Thank you for holding my hair and wiping my face when I was puking in the parking lot after the 1st IVF procedure. Thank you for holding my hand through many painful procedures and wiping my tears after many painful disappointments. I realize I'm stronger than I look and I probably near-bout →
Simmer down, Shannie!
I've been getting a bit of flack for my sappy emo-girl blog posts. So, I'm emotional. I can admit it. But, I'd like to think of myself as well-rounded with equal parts emo-girl and yes, bitchy-mcbitch. I hope the aforementioned posts don't give readers out there the wrong idea. I can still bitch with the best of 'em. So, to prove →
The ultimate list
I love lists. This is for all you lady-mammas-to-be out there. I know a few peeps who are knocked-up so I thought I'd send out an unsolicited list concerning all things essential as I see them, for the 1st 9 months. I've divided it into pre-baby checklist, newborn, and things you can wait on. I also included a list of things I did →

Perhaps one of the most easily-recognized jazz tunes, Dave Brubeck's "Take Five" just turned 50. This is an amazing song. And, "Time Out" is an amazing album.

Well, hellz bellz

My goodness, they weren't lying when they said having a baby changes your body forever. Couple that with the fact that I'm quickly approaching the big 4-0.... and holy moly, not a pretty sight! To all my HS →
Don’t ever walk the bridges….
I have this thing I do when I'm on a run-- I always, always walk the bridges. No matter where in the run they "hit"- whether it's time for a break or not; no matter what/no matter when- I always walk the bridges, always have. Friends I've run with even tend to make fun of me for this nonsensical running →
Man, I really really want this
This is the most kick-ass poster I've ever seen. Of my favorite movie on the planet: Blade Runner Fabulous It's "loooong sold out" (blah blah blah). :-( If anyone can find me one of these, I will be your slave. For life.
This made me cry
