WWMBD: On Double Lives

OK, so I kinda thought this whole What Would Miss Britt Do thing would take off a little more. I mean surely there are people out there at crossroads, desperate for answers and guidance, confident that I am just the person to provide both.
Dear Miss Britt,
I have a… friend… yes… he’s a friend… who seems [...]

A Cease Fire In The Mommy Wars

You know what is my favorite thing about Mother’s Day?
Level playing field.
All of us. Whether we’ve got 12 kids or one. Whether we’ve been doing this forEVER, or are expecting our first. Whether we’re homeschoolers, urban goddesses, potty training, anti-TV, pro-pacifier, sleep sharing, nurse them till their walkers, frank talking, organic food making, Happy Meal [...]

Pissed. Period.

I’m not sure if it’s just because I am running on NO sleep (well, technically, I think I may have accumulated about 3 hours if you add up the 15 minutes here, 30 minutes there, and that one really long 1 and 15 minute stretch)…
Or if it’s because I’m just a bitch.
But for the first [...]

The Secret: the cliff notes

I’ve read a lot of “self improvement” books over the years. In fact, I’ve read enough that I think I am now qualified to not have to actually read the new ones that come out. I am confident that a brief synopsis that I can pick up from the book jacket, asking others who actually [...]

at the risk of this entire blog becoming a pity party

I’m overwhelmed lately by the passage of time. Namely, how fucking fast it all moves.
I find myself gripped with this fear and panic, a plausible feeling that makes my chest go tight. What if I can’t get it all done? What if I miss it?
It can by any number of things. Big things, monumental things [...]

Praying for a break

Dear God,
Uncle.
Seriously.
The last few months? Have really kind of sucked. And yesterday? Between the car dying, the drain backing up, and someone eating my left over stir fry… well, I just don’t have it left in me to get up early enough to fix my blog.
Listen Lord, I know I’ve got some bad karma coming [...]

I still got it

Work has been rough lately. As in, I’ve been questioning my own abilities and thinking “maybe I am not worth a shit as a sales person”. I can’t go into why. And why doesn’t matter. It’s just been… rough.
And then at about 7:30 Thursday night I got a text message.
From my old boss.

The Weight

For the second morning in a row, I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to find something to wear that would hide the little spare tire I’ve been carrying around my waist.
For the second morning in a row, I finally had to give up and make do with “good enough”. And the last two [...]

I got nuthin

Do you know what I did last night?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Unless you count watching a Grey’s Anatomy marathon because I have the entire season saved up on TiVo because that is how friggin’ long it’s been since I got to watch TV.
And sleeping on the couch.
And that’s it.
And it. was. GLOOOOOOOOORIOUS.
Of course this morning I [...]
