Last week I wrote The Standard Bearer\u2019s Battle Hymn<\/a> which was linked to by The Pulp.it<\/a> and NCR<\/a>.\u00a0 I\u2019m over the moon excited, but still slightly amused that the blog post before that with the half-naked cowboy<\/a> got double the hits.\u00a0 The ladies all protested that they didn\u2019t like that muscle-y man, but they sure hurried over here to see what on earth I was writing about.<\/p>\n

*I\u2019m not saying here that you should use half-naked man pictures to boost your hit count, but it\u2019s effective.\u00a0 But don\u2019t do it because it\u2019s bad.\u00a0 Really bad.\u00a0 I\u2019m shaking my finger at you.\u00a0 Shane on you for thinking of doing it anyway.\u00a0 Yes, I\u2019m looking at you with the mom stink-eye.\u00a0 Yes, you.\u00a0 Shame.<\/span><\/div>\n

Earlier this week, I was in the computer nook paying bills and listening to #7 whinging and complaining as she was waking from her mid-morning nap.\u00a0 I was kinda ignoring her in favor of paying the electric bill, they get mean if you don\u2019t pay them, plus she wasn\u2019t selling me on the fact that she was serious yet.\u00a0 Then she started shrieking bloody murder and I decided she was serious.<\/p>\n

I darted around the corner of my bedroom to see my 2-year-old hugging the baby tightly to his chest around her calves.\u00a0 Her head was near his knee caps and her fingers brushed the floor.\u00a0 He had come to his sister\u2019s aid, grabbed her ankles, dragged her off the bed, and was holding her legs with one arm as he patted her and coo-ed \u201cShhhh.\u00a0 Shhhhh.\u00a0 It\u2019s okay bay-bee.\u00a0 I love you.\u00a0 Shhh.\u00a0 Shhhhh.\u201d\u00a0 She didn\u2019t seem very reassured or comforted at all.\u00a0 I guess being dangled upside down immediately upon waking is upsetting to 7 week olds.\u00a0 I\u2019ll make a note of that.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Have you seen the presidential candidate Vermin Supreme?\u00a0 The guy with the boot on his head?<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

He\u2019s promising money for time travel research, mandatory teeth brushing because there are people out there with rank breath and ponies for everyone.\u00a0 #7 heard that, pulled on her sock, and decided to join the revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Free ponies?\u00a0 I\u2019m in!<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I learned last week that I can hide shredded sweet potato in anything with tomato sauce. I hid a huge potato in the spaghetti the other night.<\/p>\n
