Me, Me, Me
Alert reader Mr. X wrote this morning to tell me that I must have sold lots of books, because my Amazon ranking went from like #700,000 to #73,441, and that Mommy Confidential: Adventures from the Wonderbelly of Motherhood is ranked #89 overall in books about Motherhood!
*sigh*
Hurry now, because there are only two left in stock, with more on the way! There may even be free potholders. It could happen.
Favor time: if you’ve bought, borrowed, or in any way read my book, the book cover, seen a picture of the book cover, or know me at all… could you pretty please leave a review or even just a rating on Amazon?
I’m working on the sequel and it would be nice to have lots of feedback by the time it’s ready for publication. Which right now is after I win the lottery and the children start taking care of everything around the house. Maybe sooner.
Oh! Time to make pancakes. Yes, from scratch. I’ve set a high bar for those kids.
I write. A lot.
I also design stuff and collect funny things kids say. Oh, and please buy my book. It's very funny.
I also review books and keep track of them in The Mommy Blog Amazon Book Store.

My son was in the same room as me when I was getting dressed one day. I scratched the top of my left breast a little and he said, “Mommy, you are touching your —-!”
I said to him, “I just have an itch,” to which he responded, “That’s *your* excuse!”

Jax: Mommy, here’s a little piece of toilet paper to wipe the tip.
Mommy: The tip of what?
Jax: Your penis.

After being told to go outside and pick up the dog poop, he goes outside, whines and complains. He comes back in and says, “Mom, I think the dog over-pooped.”

When I woke up one morning with a sore throat, raspy voice, and fever, my three-year-old, Emilie, asked me what was wrong. I said, “Mama has a cold…” and she felt my cheek for a minute before saying, “No. You has a hot!”

Do you know how I memorized 2 x 11? I have this fake pencil in my brain, and it writes down the multiplication!!

Actually,
“I know that you don’t necessarily believe book sales when your number moves on Amazon, but…
Somebody bought both (here I’m speculating) together we’re both below 70k, only 2 left more on the way, and in addition it says that you’re 83 in books about motherhood!
...
I told you never to call me Shirley!”

mmm—pancakes… dripping syrup, melty butter, hot spongy cakes
My word is thirty, as in I remember when.

Done! I’m Readergrrl or something equally stupid. It’s ravey if not eloquent. Just like me tonight. Argh.
Now I want a favor from you - who did the adorable Dick Jane and Sally style cover for your book? I totally want one of my boys!

I did!! Send me a pic and I’ll do something!

Whew… that was rough. Now if I could just find that damn cork screw… I have a really long straw around here somewhere and a bubble bath waiting. Honestly, I love your book. I love your blog. *gushes* So I posted a darn review. It’s not pithy, nor eloquent or even witty. But its there.
Cheers!
