And thus it begins!

Hello! It's far past my bed time (yes, as a mommy of a 6 month old, I have a set bed time.), but I wanted to at least get something published on here before I lay my head down. How much I type out will probably be determined by these factors: 1) how long the caffeine I've consumed today will hold up, and 2) whether or not mommy-brain strikes.


What the hell is "mommy brain?"


I know what it is, but I think it has struck, so here's a definition from UrbanDictionary.com:


Mommy Brain - The phenomenon known to mothers where their brains become useless piles of goo after being around their children for too long.


I love the internet. I swear since I gave birth I haven't had a complete thought. At least not one that didn't involve poop or feeding schedules... or sleep schedules... or whether or not I should vaccinate my child... augh! LA LA LA! I'm not listening! This is not Babycenter! (aka Sanctimommy central)


Anywho! So, as most of the population, I suppose, every few years I get the strong urge to start a blog. And I hit it head on for like... a week or two. And then it kinda just fades into the dark reaches of the interwebs, never to be seen again until someone (admittedly, me!) randomly Googles me or my internet handle to see what pops up. Do I think this will be another one of those blogs? Probably. Or hey, who knows, maybe I'll actually keep up with it for reals this time and end up with a few followers other than my BFF (shout out to Fae! <3 Who I am blaming this on, btw. She started to blog again. And somehow that made ME want to do it.) or other high school friends? Eh. Who knows? :) I have no plans to become attached to this thing. Maybe that's the key though? Setting high expectations often leads to pressure and the inevitable let-down that follows. We'll just keep this blogger-to-blog relationship relaxed and see how it goes this time around.


By the way, I'm going to go ahead and apologize now for any future typos/run-on sentences/incoherent thoughts. Spell-check can only do so much when fighting Mommy Brain. ;)


And I think, with that, we'll call it a night. Tomorrow (or whenever, ya know, keeping this chill) I'll get to the introduction of myself and why I feel the need to share my life with random strangers on the internet. We'll talk about how I got here and all that jazz. Until then, toodles!
