This is me, slowly letting my grasp on what the kids today consider cool loosen, and being okay with it.

my husband holds me, I hold the pillow. heh.

I have to confess I have a favorite pillow which is used for holding while I sleep (or sometimes while I read or watch movies). It replaced a previous favorite pillow that I had to get rid of because it was about 10% feathers anymore and 90% fabric and, as horrible as this sounds, if I got it restuffed it might not…

yep, yep and yep. I wish I had listened to my mom who said the best thing you can do for your skin is just not to touch it.

The adult me sometimes thinks the hysteria over airbrushing is a little extreme, but then I remember the 13-year-old-me who wondered how those girls in the Noxzema ads had such great skin. Cue me buying Noxzema.

how about we lay off what's best and not-best and just let new moms do the best they can.

Expect Lady Gaga's gummy fetus in about four months.
