I have something vitally important to say

This is my 301st post!

Par-tay.

You're all invited to the party.  Feel free to COME and leave me brilliantly witty comments.  I'll bring snacks - do virtual M&Ms count?  What if they are virtual M&Ms that have MY FACE on them?

(Of course these virtual snacks will have to also have to be imaginary, seeing as I'm not actually going to bringing anything to my non-actual party.)

But I still expect brilliantly witty comments.

And possibly 6,000 more loyal blog followers.

Is that really too much to ask for?!  Absolutely not.

Also, did you notice how my last two posts were sponsored?  This blog is officially MONETIZED. 

The stupid banner ads I've had on here for years?  Yeah, they totally don't count.  Banner ads never count.  Banner ads are LAME-o.

Sponsored posts?  THE. WAY. TO. GO.  Seriously. 

So, you wanna know how I did it?  With this:


Broadcast Bloggers JUST OPENED.  Well, ok, their official launch is on June 1st, so technically you're all invited to sneak in the back door with me instead of waiting in line out front with your pitched tent and butane stove.  (But don't worry, I have the key to the back door, so we're allowed in.)

So yeah.  Sign up for a free account and use my sponsor ID (that would be that back door key we were talking about): 1068005 and you can start blogging the second all the jobs are posted in on the board (which should be ANY TIME now.)  FYI: you make at least $63 per post, or as much as $300....for one post.....yeah, it's awesome.

But, whatever you do, don't forget to leave me those brilliantly witty comments.  I'M WAITING.....

I am feeling alarmingly unwitty. I apologize. Sincerely. And I congratulate you even MORE sincerely!! And I'm still trying to figure out whether or not I want to jump on this bandwagon... (but if I do I'll use your secret code, not MMB, don't worry!)

Congrats on 301! Do virtual m&ms give you virtual calories. Cuz I'm trying to lose my virtual weight right now.

hair loss and mourning

I like Monkey's hair long.  I tried to grow out Opie's hair when he was younger, but he has always had a tremendously large head, and he also has very thick wavy hair.  You pair those two together, throw in some long locks, and you've got yourself a genuinely bonified giant-head child.  So I've learned my lesson: keep Opie's hair short. But Monkey's hair?  It's so soft, and straight (our only straight-haired child) and super super cute when it's long.  SUPER CUTE.  (Agree with me - it's my blog.)  But not many people liked the whole long hair thing.  I kept having to threaten various family members with things like, "If I come back to find him with short hair I will DISOWN you, run away with my kids and you will never hear from us again.  EVER."  (Husband was particularly sensitive to this threat.) However, I did say that once random strangers started referring to him as a girl, I would consider cutting it.  And even though ...

We took the kids to a rodeo today.  In my mind I knew I wanted to take them for the experience, but also I was thinking:  rodeo=country western torture. I've been to a few rodeos before.  The small town next to the small town where I grew up had one every summer.  It was always hot and super dusty, and everyone got to sit on rickety-ish old stadium benches that didn't have backs.  Also, you had to make sure you didn't wear flip flops, because they could fall under the benches and get trampled by the waiting bulls.  (Seriously, there were bulls below us once - I was like 9, it scared the poop out of me, I thought my shoes were goners.) But the rodeo today?  SUPER AWESOME.  I would bet money that I had a better time than my kids did.  (And they didn't even play that much country music, which is great, because I think that would have ruined the whole thing for me.) First of all, it was indoors.  And at noon.  And had special fam...
