  • Just stood by while Dad explained to the optician that "The best thing for cleaning eyeglasses is white cotton underpants." #
  • Virginia bound. It's about time this kid found out about ranch dressing and sweet tea. #
  • Must be all those years living in Manhattan, but I get a bit agoraphobic when I can't reach the toilet and sink from inside the shower. #
  • Feels like the audiences from the presidential candidate debates (and maybe the candidates, too) have started a fight club in my colon. #
  • Well it took 3 1/2 months of diligently setting a good example, but Dad just used the word "boob" as a verb. I'm so proud. #
  • Dad to Paul: "Think of your diaper as truth – you must ration it." #
  • Three good things… http://t.co/ANmWNxqH #
  • Drew – "I basically stopped looking after I found the menage a trois." Drinking with this family is dicey. #

  • Me: "I need another song." Rocco: "Did you do Karl Marx yet?" Me: "You mean Richard?" Rocco: "Whatever." #
  • Amen. http://t.co/1HeRUG0s #
  • Rocco just tricked me into watching Moneyball. I'm never watching a baseball movie without Charlie Sheen and/or Jobu ever again. #
  • Either I've taken up sleepwalking, we have a ghost, or Mildred has learned how to operate light switches. #
  • Is it just me, or does the line between courage and stupidity get blurrier on a daily basis? #

  • Cutting out dairy is surprisingly easy…when you replace it with bacon and french fries. #
  • Huh. I thought for sure that diaper would smell like asparagus. Experiment FAIL. Also, I may need to get out more… #
  • Heh. I'm easily amused at 5am apparently. http://t.co/HHnMiDll #
  • Surfing the Internet looking at the #PIPA and #SOPA blackouts feels a lot like driving around the neighborhood looking at Xmas decorations. #
  • Rocco just said, "When you say Harikrishna I think upbeat, fast tempo, and jazz hands." I got nothing, Interwebz. #
  • As per my dream last night, happiness is $6.95. Be warned, though. You need exact change. #
  • In light of my dream, I'm guessing the latest issue of Out Magazine costs $6.95. Yay @actuallynph! http://t.co/gQ5ubUQD #
  • Rocco to Paul: "You're planking, dude! You're a meme!" #
  • Rather than wasted milk,I prefer to think spit-up is Paul's interpretation of "one for my homies." #
  • Boo. Hiss. #

  • After hours of skyping with Grandma, Paul is now trying to have a conversation with a Wham video on the iPad. Yes I said Wham. #soHipItHurts #
  • The upside of having burp clothes all over the place? Ya never have to hurt your hand on those pesky twist-offs. Yay beer. #
  • Bright lights, big kiddie – Time for Paul's first trip to Midtown…and a much needed mimosa. #

    Look what I made with my vagina!

    I’m talking about the baby, not the shuke (shirt uke, obviously).  Though I guess technically my uterus made Paul.  My vagina wasn’t terribly involved in the process since he was delivered via c-section, but she did get the party started.  I guess we’ll just call it a tag-team effort.

    I made the shuke, too – just not with my vagina.  She doesn’t paint.  Welding is her creative outlet of choice.  Do you know how hard it is to find a custom-fitted welding helmet for your kayak?

    …and you thought I’d forgotten how to write about vaginas.

    In a mere 12 months time, I finished the book, incubated an overlord, sold a condo, became a minister, bought a house, moved further into the wilds of Jersey, scored an agent for the book, hatched said overlord (with or without the help of my vagina), and (just under the wire) learned a small theater company in NYC is going to include one of my posts in the December 30th production of their Blogologues series .  Tomorrow I’ll be visiting my other favorite Paul (also known as Aloysius), who will hopefully tell me I can add “reached three years in remission” to that list.  Sadly, I also managed to accumulate almost 12 months worth of dirty laundry, dust bunnies, unanswered emails, unshaved legs, and unsent greeting cards.  Neil Patrick Harris and I are still not besties….yet.

    Phew.

    It’s been a long, wonderful, terrifying, rewarding, and exhausting year – the best kind – and I wouldn’t have survived it without you.  I owe each and every one of a pitcher of margaritas.  Or seven.  And if it’s all the same to you, I think I could handle 2012 being just a smidge mellower.

    Last New Year I resolved to be a possibility – something I try to remember every single day.  I kicked that resolution’s ass.  Imma do it again this year, too.  Just as soon as I start sleeping again.

    Thanks for being a part of this crazy journey of life.  I’m amazed every day by your willingness to be a part of it.  May your holidays be rum-soaked and your 2012 possibility-filled.

    It’s motherfucking-yule-time, bitches.  Happy Merry Everything.

    smooches,

    e
