Sorry days

In: Ancient Archives, Infertility

Well, the powers that be must’ve read my blog on Tuesday and figured I really meant what I said about being happy for people because I received four pregnancy announcements in the past two days.
I’m feeling really small and sad right now. I was up until 1am last night crying on the couch with poor [...]

New babies

In: Ancient Archives, Infertility

I finally got to see my friend’s new baby on Sunday. She’s just adorable! I always forget how strange brand-new babies are with all their unearthly squeaks and groans! But beautiful, too, in a wonderful new-baby kind of way.
Another friend of mine kept offering to take the food that I made over for me. I [...]

My god, NOW (National Organization for Women) pisses me off sometimes. I am so sick of their daycare/daycare/daycare push instead of a push for CHOICE! Reproductive choice should also include how you *choose* to live your life after reproducing! I was pissed about their take on the recent decision by the American Society for Reproductive [...]

April 2002

In: Ancient Archives

Way back when I was hand-coding my entries and so I’ve never brought them into the blog. I’m doing it now by pasting the entire month in entries — it’s quicker and easier than adding them to the database one at a time. You can read April 2002 below the cut.

About Me

I have two kids and a delightfully odd husband, Brett. My children are Noah (born to us in 1997) and Madison (born to her first mom, Pennie, in 2004 and brought to our family through a domestic, open adoption). They are my inspiration and also the reason I don't get more done around here.

I'm a writer and sometimes I get published, which is a nice thing. I write for joy, I write for money and when I'm very lucky, both things happen at the same time. My work appears in national publications including Yoga Journal, Disney's Family.com, Utne, Wondertime, Brain Child and Salon. Currently I am working on a book about my daughter's adoption and seeking representation for the proposal. I also own Smart Cookie Communications with my husband.
