Speaking of reading blogs
My aggregator [NetNewsWire Lite] is ancient and annoying in that it doesn’t even read Atom.
So I’m currently downloading version 2.0.1, which was just released a week ago.
I’m a versiontracker whore, I admit it. I’ve got more stupid freeware than is right or necessary.
Update: It’s beautiful. All [well, most of] you Blogger users, I […]
Blogher Action Items!
Updated with corrected links.
Well, I couldn’t go to the conference. I’m coming to terms with that. But what I can do is catch up on what happened and do my part to broaden the discussion about women in the blogosphere, give other bloggers a hand up, and work on giving more women a voice by […]
I’m already planning the wedding
Owen and his girl at Rock’n’Romp. If you can’t tell, he’s planting a baby kiss on her shoulder. Baby kisses involve a lot slime, so props to her for putting up with it.
In a perfect world
Been following the BlogHer conference by proxy today, as part of the live chat, as well as stalking Flickr, del.icio.us and Technorati. I had a frisson of utopia, of all of us bloggers gathering our political potential into one firestorm of grassroots euphoria.
And I also got to meet and talk to a lot of really […]
Duckfaced
Oh, Owen m’dear. You crack me up. You have this duck that you enjoy chewing on, right? As soon as you see it, it’s in your mouth, head first, with its little duck butt hanging out. Then you go about your business, duckfaced. It’s really cute.
You’re getting your second tooth now. The first one […]

What a difference 6+ months make
I’m re-reading Dr. Sears’ baby book, having not touched it since March [when I called him a stupid hippie]. When I read it then, the words all seemed to make this sentence: YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG, YOU IDIOT.
Tonight, they make this sentence: HERE ARE SOME IDEAS TO TRY, YOU SEXY THING, AND I LOVE […]
Alpha Mom: The Martha Stewart of Parenting
This woman, Isabel Kallman, is everything I would hate to be.
If she seems frightening, perhaps it’s because she’s so unlike our own mothers and operates so counter to both instinct and emerging wisdom. To all the best-selling scolds who say that Mother should slow down, that we expect too much of her, the new, […]
Weetaboy
— My new nickname for Owen. It’s mommese, derived from the English “little boy,” meaning “kidbutt whom I love ever so much.”
Not so little boy, though: He’s 18 lbs 8 oz, according to the doctor, and 27[!]” long. For those of you counting at home, that’s 7 inches in 6 months. Christ. But I had […]
DIY iPod wallet
Wherever do I find the time to make things like this?
Well, I’ll tell you. It’s those valuable hours after the baby goes to bed at 7:30 p.m. and before I finally, finally triumph over insomnia at 2:30 a.m.
Pictures and a how-to are here.
