May 3
Thursday, May 3, 2012 at 1:27PM Thank you guys, for all the birthday wishes yesterday. Also, thank you for not responding to my whiny post with "Awwww, poor puppy!" because that's what 90% of people did in the Real World, and those people all suck.
NEVER MIND THE DAMN DOG MY HARDWOOD FLOORS ARE WARPING.
Anyway, my birthday was good. I had sushi, a pedi, and derby. Those are all things my 38-year-old self requires for a successful celebration of That Fateful Day.
I've come a long way.
Anyway, every day in May I am going to blog. I'm going to do this because I miss you guys, and also I have a lot going on in May so it will make me look cooler than I am. So that is a Thing I Am Attempting.
(Note...Attempting. Not Doing. Because we all know I will fail at this somewhere around Day 5.)
(Yes we do know that. Don't argue.)
I'll more likely than not be Attempting this during my lunch hour at work, which means my posts may be fragmented and strange. Just what you've come to expect!
Actually, I think work is why I haven't blogged much lately. I do a lot of communicating, all day, really, massaging of data and opinions and tweaking of emails and having meetings and talking on the phone, and then I pick up a 4-year-old who wants nothing more than to ask me questions and communicate more, and then by the time I get my precious hour to myself, the last damn thing I want to do is communicate. I don't even want to talk to Alfred, I just want to sit on the couch in my pajamas and watch Torchwood.
Communication is fun until you have to do it as a job.
But I still want to be A Blogger, and anyway I've run out of available episodes of Torchwood. Those are both good reasons to take inspiration from Becky and blog every day this month.
Aren't you glad I started off with such brilliance?

I admire anyone who makes the attempt. I, of course, will be following your success and thanking every deity that I didn't sign up for a month of blogging.
Yay! So happy to have your posts to read again!
And...happy belated birthday. :)
Woohoo you're back with a vengeance! Happy belated birthday. I owe you a glass of wine or two. Or 10. I lost count. Gulp, gulp.
Happy day or two after your birthday. Mine is Saturday. Not to change the subject tooo much, OMG Captain Jack is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo awesome. I'd totally spend the Big bad Day with him also.
Happy belated Birthday!!
Glad to see you back here and hope to see more entries past Day 5.. :)
Cheers!
Yeah, my first thought would not have been poor puppy. My first thought would have been where's the d@mn dog?! I'm gonna kill it! (remember that's the thought not the action...)
I'd be glad to read a Daily Un-Mom story in May. It's always fun.
Why did I not know it was your birthday? WHY? I read the blog! I read the twitters! Happy freaking Birthday! And may the fourth, etc.
I'm glad you're blogging every day in May. SubMat did that in April, and it made my reader so much more enjoyable.
Oh my gah, it's the 6th and I just now figured out you're posting every day! Hurray! Hurray!
I know what you mean about that precious nighttime hour. It is sacred and holy. So by all means, use work time to blog so you won't have to do it at nigh!
