Seriously? Britney?

Criminey!!! Can there be a DAY that goes by without Britney Spears being in the news? I feel badly for her kids. It is sad to watch someone unravel...especially in public. She seemed to come from a fairly average, normal family and has totally lost her mind due to fame, fortune, and drugs/alcohol. Surely there are plenty of healthy people in her life who have talked to her about her actions and such, although I think I've heard that she's fired most of them and is estranged from her family. But alas, we are all adults and at some point, you just gotta suck it up and learn how to live like one. PARTICULARLY when you have kids. Lord help her. And those kids. Did I really just blog about this? I'm tired today...

At three o'clock in the morning...

Current mood: tired

You can:

~ Watch today's episode of General Hospital on SoapNet (yay!)

~ Learn all about the latest infomercial gadgets (my current faves are a ceramic pairing knife and collapsable hangers)

~ Wonder who else is up in your neighborhood by checking for lights shining in the windows of neighboring houses

~ Check out your friends' friends on MySpace to see who else you know and what they are up to
~ Laundry (if you are REALLY bored)

~ Catch up on the two foot high stack of magazines you never have time to read, but refuse to give up subscriptions to

~ Obsessively check out the GUIDE channel to see what "a-thons" you can get sucked into (sometimes Tori & Dean are on at 3am...yay!)

~ Get updated on the latest news stories in your local online paper or on msn.com..... then regret it because there is nothing happy about it

~ Change, feed, and burp your baby (duh!)

~ Wonder why more people don't email you real messages instead of just forwarding you a bunch of crap you don't want to read

~ Find more and more and more blogs to read and keep you occupied at 3 am!

J is here!

Current mood: ecstatic

J arrived on October 1, 2007 at 10:47 pm. He weighed 7 pounds, 10 ounces and was 20.5 inches long....our BIG BOY! (Especially compared to his "big" sis who was a mere 5.1 pounds and 19 inches). He was delivered via c-section and I'm happy to report his delivery was much less eventful than K's. We came home from the hospital last night (Thursday) and are making all the necessary adjustments. All of a sudden I am eating a blueberry scone at 10:30 at night as I type this b/c I will be up for the next SEVERAL hours and then will sleep through the normal breakfast hours.

Big sister is doing awesome and asks to hold "baby J" often and offers him kisses. Today she offered him a blade of grass out of the handful she was playing with while we spent some time outside after dinner. I consider that "success" in the mind of a two year old! I'll post his birth story later when I have a little more energy! Thanks for all your well wishes, positive thoughts, prayers, etc. during the past several months!
