Can I Go Back To Bed Now?
Ever wonder why you bothered getting out of bed on a certain day? In my case it’s not an option. I have to get up to get the kids off to school. That being the case, today I had the “why exactly did I get up today?” Without getting into specifics, it’s because today has been not much fun. So far.
So there’s hope. I have a whole afternoon left.

Wherein I Bash Parenting Blogs On A Parenting Blog
I’m not familiar with the parenting blog EarlyMama, but it sounds like the author, Michelle Horton, gets her chops busted a lot for having kids when she was in her early 20′s.
I have some thoughts to share. Generally we call these rants. It’s not really a rant, per se, but calling it a rant makes things easier. Read more »

Laurie Berkner is Stuck in my Head
For reasons I cannot explain, I have the song “Me and My Energy” by Laurie Berkner stuck in my head. (Note: the actual title appears to be “My Energy.” See? I don’t even know what the damn thing is called.)
It’s been there for three days.
The only lyrics I know are these:
“This is me. This iiis me. This is me, and my ehhhnergeee. This is me. This IIIS me. This is ME and my ehn-ER-gee.”
That’s it. There’s more I think, but I don’t know it. My kids don’t even like Laurie Berkner. I don’t think I know any other songs by Laurie Berkner.
I have nothing against her, I suppose. I think she’s vastly over-rated. She’s not even better than Raffi, although I guess she’s not Canadian, and is therefore at least a little less annoying. And the idea that she’s “hot” is almost disturbing. Dads who think that need to get out more. Or watch some TV that isn’t for kids. She’s not ugly, she’s nice looking. But “hot”? Really?
No matter what else I can say about Laurie, having a song of hers stuck in my head is not something I would choose. Especially not a part of a song. Over and over and over again.
