Just because some of us have OLD AS HELL websites doesn’t mean you idiots should be trying to hack them all day. Trust me, there is NOTHING HERE. Some old links. That’s it.
Now Go Away. Get off my lawn. Etc. So on and so forth.

I’m in my hometown near Detroit.
The boats are on the water, kids are in bathing suits at every lake, and my family is near.
With a Ford in the driveway here, and a Chysler parked in front of my California home, there is nothing I’d like to see more than this city and state revived.
Energy policies, economic incentives. They don’t seem to matter much when you’re helping your sure-of-foot 5-year old down his first wobbly, Michigan dock.
I miss this town. I’m still proud of this town.
I am happy to be home.

I’m listening to my mother and my brother discuss my daughter, and I can’t decide if I am thrilled or offended.
“She’s going to give you a run for your money.”
“She’s going to be the wild child.”
“The life of the party, breaking all the rules.”
“Battle of the wills. My money is on Princess Peanut- Erin, you’re going down.”
I just kept on slicing eggplant at the counter while they went on and on and on.
Needless to say the past few days with my 3-year old have been…let’s call them trying.
I’ve written about this before.Oh yeah and here. Oh…here too. And about 20 other times.
But she’s THREE.
3 sucks.
3 is worse than 2.
3 has phases.
3 can bite me.
3 can #suckit.
And so on. And so forth.
As I type this. our darling daughter is being sassy to her grandfather who made the mistake of trying to help her go potty.
NO.
I DO IT MYSELF GRAMPS!
And my Mom and brother are snickering from the couch and mentally pointing and laughing in my direction.
Everyone seems to be finding my ANGEL’s temper HILARIOUS.
High comedy.
The subject of very genuine belly laughs.
Me?
She might be more vocal than her brother before her…but no more difficult.
She’s certainly got more flair than her sibling…drama, shall we say…but no more difficult.
She is three. And three is killing me.
However…and this is a big HOWEVER…
I wrote the book on difficult.
The student must learn to respect the master.
The student needs to acknowledge the master.
The student still has a lot to learn about sass and manipulation.
If nothing else, Little Miss 3 needs a wait a few years before thinking she can take over the throne.
Once again, I am amazed

Your Mom is So 2.0 – She Blogs From the Car
July 13, 2008 by 13 Comments
We’re ramping up for BlogHer!
Yes, it’s Cannonball Run, 2.0 style with Sarah, Devra, and Meagan joining me live TONIGHT on Ustream.
I fully expect silly to occur.
We might actually talk about important things too. Like how your mom probably never did a sponsored road trip with wifi in the car, while webchatting with friends and twittering.
But let’s be clear…
They are without their kids, making their way to San Francisco in a hybrid.
They’ve already invoked the Blues Brothers.
Silly will occur.
This is going to be fun. 8pm Pacific. Don’t miss it.
