    Emory is happiest whenever he’s being held. So I hold him a lot, which usually leaves me with only one free arm. I’ve spent a lot of time discovering things to do with one arm. There aren’t many. Reading a book isn’t easy to do with a newborn. (At least for me.) Cleaning is impossible.…

    Every night I wake up at least three times and tend to Emory. During that time, I feed him, pump breastmilk, change diapers, or amuse the little man until he’s tired again. (He’s been really quite good about sleeping at night. There are hours where he’d rather be held and played with but overall, I…

    I haven’t wanted to say anything about this partly because I’m worried I might jinx myself, partly because I don’t trust my emotions, and partly because Toby returned to work this week and I know things are going to be different now. I’m optimistic today but a little wary of every step I take on…

    Kids and Confidence. “This realization was the foundation of my own brand of nihilistic confidence: ‘This person is a lazy wiper. I am not. Therefore, I should silently elevate myself in comparison. Yay confidence.’” (He’s back. I hope this time he stays).

    If there’s one thing I can say about myself it’s this: I am fiercely loyal. I have my weaknesses, for sure. I’m terrible at saying goodbye. I am terrible when it comes to emergencies. I don’t like to attend parties, large social outings, or public events. And I can be pretty lazy as well. If…

    I’ve been given a new job on mihow.com. I’m no longer only Chief Irritating Officer, and founder of this Web site. I have also been given the job of Police Chief. I usually catch the nasty and/or overly disgusting comments before anyone else has a chance to read them, which is probably why no one…

    This post is also going to send a wave of paranoia over some folks. It’s not meant to. I’m not necessarily talking about you. If you’re guilty of anything I write about, it doesn’t make you a bad person or someone I dislike. In fact, I have been guilty of some of these crimes as…

    Part two is up. Y’all like it, find it useful? Be sure to let him know. (Also, I haven’t forgotten about the tutorials people requested last week. I am diligently working on them.)

    This morning I woke up to find 95 inactive comments awaiting my approval; all of them were comment spam. A couple of years ago, Tobyjoe moved my site from an engine he wrote specifically for me to Typo. Almost immediately, I began receiving a lot of comment spam. Frustrated and sick of hearing me whine…

    I have added a new section to this site. It’s called “Photos”. And guess what? It features photos. As many of you already know, Flickr did the whole switcheroo recently, forcing Old Skool members to merge their accounts with a Yahoo ID. Both Tobyjoe and I were a little perturbed by this, admittedly. And apparently…
