This just made my morning. Scroll until you see the GWB clip. Ha! Frowny face…

My dear friend Amber has jetted off to Scotland to celebrate her birthday with friends and family, leaving her husband Len and the kiddies in the dust. All hail the brave, travelling mommy! It’s not easy to leave your little world behind, but it is essential to recharge those batteries and get re-acquainted with the part of you that isn’t always thinking about snack-packs and carpools.

In the interim, she has asked a few of her fellow bloggers to guest-post in her absence… maybe wisely, maybe not… but for better or worse, her little audience is in our hot little hands… [dramatic organ music, followed by discordant violin screeches]

So come visit—we’ll be here (and there) until the 26th! Be sure to stop in, and don’t forget to tip your waitress!

No, that has nothing to do with the prize, or my hair, or my boots…jeez where was all this interest when I was single???

I just had my very first link from Boing Boing! Not so sure I’m proud of the headline, though…

More TSA fun—robot-brained airport security worker makes mother place infant on ground

Airport security tells a Mom to put her infant on the ground so they can check for a bomb in her bra.

Weblogs

But I have no clue who you are…

I’ll give you some hints, and then you’ll have to leave a comment to claim your prize:

1. You were the 10,000 visitor at 12:05:27 p.m. today.
2. You didn’t stay long, just 0:00 seconds, so I can’t say you were there for the content, but OK, you showed up and demonstrated some initiative.
3. You connect to the internet from somewhere in the vicinity of Bethlehem, PA.
4. I have the name of a network, but will not post it here—you’ll have to confirm it with me!

If no claim by end of day, I’ll move to the next IP address on the log!

Tidbits on the Kidbits

Never use the word “streetwalker” in front of a 5-year-old.

Me: [dressing for work] “Gil, look at me. I can get away with the boots, or the hair, but not both. I’ll look like a streetwalker!”

Logan: “Mom? You’re going to be a streetwalker??”

Me: [fuckity fuckity fuck] “Oh, hon, Mommy’s being silly. We don’t walk in the streets!”

Logan: [giggles]

Me: [congratulates self on save]
