That sounds a little kinky. You might want to reconsider after the day you had with the spawn.

Your child must be toddler aged. All my kids went insane from 15 months until about age 4. My condolences. Some days are really hard! Good thing they are so cute.

Smiley, where have you been?

Bwahahahahaaaa! Yes, we've been told by more experienced friends that all parents should be told about the "terrible twos" and the "f#%! you threes" lol! I'm counting the days until March 14th, 2013 (her 4th birthday).

So the mother-in-law is taking the kid for the day (she does most Tuesdays), so I might attempt the synopsis again. I did have plans to go try on the super cute dresses at Hollister again, and hope that the length magically looks age-appropriate his time, but my hip is pretty stiff and sore this morning, so IDK.

Hope everyone else gets some writing done, though!

Ha! That made me smile because I know exactly what you mean! I tried on a dress the other day that college me could have rocked. When I sat down though, my butt was on the chair the dress was so short and I thought "how did college me get away with this?" I just felt silly and like I was trying to hard. Ugh, age.

Oh, I'm quite certain of how younger me got away with it...it's called being 30 lbs lighter, lol!

Oh Hollister... I just tried on a dress from American Eagle. And therein lies the problem..... The dress looked great on me. Sadly could not afford it (and had no where to wear it).

:hi: Good morning everyone. It's raining here :(

American Eagle had an awesome sale a year or so ago, and I got 2 maxi dresses there for around $10/ea. The stuff I'm looking at at Hollister is on sale, as well...around $30 per dress :D

This is one of the ones I like, but I don't remember seeing it in the store when I was there last week. And this is the one I tried on. How freakin' cute are they?!

Dorothy - P is ...well written and I like the voice a lot. I think my prob was in the first 40 pages I was learning about the world they live in and it jumps to the action and now she's trying to escape(pg 90)...It just moved too quickly for me. BUT I am really liking it and I love Elana's blog so I am hoping I'll love this.

Lisa- CUrious about?? what on my playlist?
