I’m sorry for my overzealousness. → awholelotofnothing.net

This is the first, and probably not the last, of many times I will be apologizing for my *squeeeeeness* and my *ZOMGS* and all the talk I’ll be doing about BlogHer this year.

I’m sorry.

If you…

My poor children have nothing to look up to. → awholelotofnothing.net

Yesterday, I wrote about my crazy-intelligent special needs kid. Today, I have a post on Aiming Low about having crushes on girls.

It’s a wonder the kid was birthed from my loins.

Challenging Kid. → awholelotofnothing.net

Starting this post is proving more difficult than expected.

How do you start writing something that may turn people away?

I’ve written in the past about the anxiety issues with which my daughter…

5 things you should know about me. Because you care. → awholelotofnothing.net

Even if you won’t be going to BlogHer this year, you need to know these things about me. They’re things I know about myself that you may be ashamed to find out and think I DON’T know them, but…

I want you to love him like I love him. Almost. → awholelotofnothing.net

This is totally and completely NOT an “I love my husband and he rules everything in the universe so suckit!” post. It’s more of a “this will be BlogHer through his eyes” post. Also, YAY! Patrick’s…

I think I will name her Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby. She better love me back. → awholelotofnothing.net

So it’s said, when your heart goes, your brain goes.

Or maybe just in my headcase.

Since my heart is still wonkified, my brain has decided to catch up and lower the bar. I can pretty much do…

“I do believe — had you actually watched the show all of you nice bloggers out there and all the folks who sit at home trying to figure out stuff to do […]” —

Whoopi Goldberg on her comments regarding how Mel Gibson isn’t a racist because essentially, you know, she totally is his black friend.

First Whoopi’s “It isn’t rape-rape,” Defense of Polanski, some other really stupid things she’s publicly said and done, and now this. She is completely ruining Sister Act for me, dammit.

Aside from her eagerness to constantly play devil’s advocate and defend even the shittiest things that people do , what pissed me off about the above quote was the way she said “blogger” — she spit it out like it was a mouthful of shit. As if people who sit at home and voice their (sometimes stupid) opinions are morally inferior to people who get up on a fucking sound stage and voice their (sometimes stupid) opinions (IT’S NOT RAPE-RAPE, PEOPLE). Come off it, Whoopi. You get paid to do in front of a camera what I do at home in my pajamas. That makes you richer than me, not better.

Then, she proceeded to let us know, in an incredibly condescending tone, what she thinks of people who “sit around at home trying to figure out stuff to do.” Way to insult your target demographic. You are on a morning talk show, Whoopi. Who do you fucking think is watching your show?

You don’t want to read about my heart problems, do you? You do? I LOVE YOU. → awholelotofnothing.net

The week started off innocently enough.

I went out to dinner with my skank-whore friends to one of my favorite cheesecake-themed restaurant. I ate too much, took stupid pictures, and scared a cute…

I’m not one for bathing.

That doesn’t sound right.

I don’t normally bathe.

Let me clarify.

The opposite of the cleaning-of-the-body-with-the-falling-water kind of bathing. The kind in a…

I hate posts that just link to other posts.

Like this one.

But I’m not in the mood to write a whole uninteresting post about the woes of my achy breaky knee (yeah, found out it’s a stress…
