Utter Nonsense

Even though my last blog post was met with more chirping crickets than rave reviews, I'm going to write another one. If nothing else, I can hope that someday this immortalized piece of weirdness will thoroughly embarrass my daughter.

Everyone, my baby girl is one month old today. I can't even believe that. I can't believe that I'm so in love with someone I've only known a month. I can't believe how big she's getting already. I can't believe I'm still surviving.

In this first month, I've learned a lot of important things. And possibly the most important of those things is that, when very tired, my husband may talk in his sleep. This isn't just a word or two, folks. We actually can have a short conversation until he wakes up and realizes he's talking nonsense--which usually leads to him getting annoyed at me for not understanding what he was trying to say. Even though it usually happens when I'm really tired too, it never fails to make me laugh at his expense. I think you should too.

So, I feel like I need to follow up on the last blog I wrote before I took a short (long) hiatus. "Finally!" you say in relief. "I've been waiting forever for this!"

In that blog, I said I was going to try a media fast. I have to be honest ... I did not go on a media fast. Why?

Because.

I did, however, quit playing Facebook games. Yes, friends. I played Facebook games. More than one or two, actually. Don't judge me. They were fun for a while, but I'm glad I quit. They took up a lot more time than I'd like to admit, and I'm pretty sure some of my game posts started to annoy most of my friends list. It's also nice to no longer have to worry about my farm catching fire or my little city collapsing or my puppy dying if I don't log on in time. I'm sure that has all happened in my absence, but the "Block Application" feature keeps me from knowing about it and feeling like a bad landlord to all my little virtual people.

This blog really didn't say much of anything interesting, did it? Well, as an apology, I will share the link to the most amazing piece of music ever composed. Just click here to hear it.

You're welcome.
