Remember this post? No? It seems that you aren't alone!
Is it because I have posting like a squirrel on crack lately and it got buried? Am I that big of a loser that no one wants to know anything about me (sniff sniff)? Have I already revealed too much?
Well, despite the fact that only 1 person posted a question, I'm going to give it another try even though I have 4 other posts swimming in my head and partially finished in my Drafts. So here's the deal - you want to read my posts about why I hate all other mothers, especially stay-at-home moms? You want to read my post about why I suck and so does Weight Watchers? You want to read my post about how I am a capitalist pig who turned $3 in to $307 in 5 days? I'm about to go run errands, one of which involves beating a Circuit City employee to death with a Blu-Ray player....that should be good for a post as well.
So here is the point in the blog where I hold my breath until I turn blue and tell you that you that you can't read any of those posts until we play MY game (or I get bored of waiting and start posting the other stuff anyway, secure in the knowlege that none of you give a shit about me)
So let's play.....anything you want to know about me...just ask. Leave your questions in the comments. C'mon....The New Girl got a ton of questions, as did all of the people that she stole the idea from. Don't third-generation thiefs get anything?
And I know your first question....could you possibly whine a little more? The answer to that one is: Yes - and it ain't pretty!
Rhonda
What is your favorite meal to cook for dinner?
Vampy
Please tell me how you turned $3 into $307 in five days so that I can do the same!
Why do you feel you are whining? I feel you are quite normal and put a fun twist on life as a mom (and working from home at that!)
Most of all, how did it feel to flush the hermit crab?! LMAO here
No really, if there was one thing you REALLY want us to know about you, what would it be?
Vampy
What's love got to do with it?
What's the most fun idea you've come up with when the weather is bad and the kids are starting to climb the walls?
What is the most intense conversation or post you've ever experienced online?
Have I asked you enough questions (nosey little f'r aren't I??? ) Am I playing the game correctly???
Vampy
One more question....What's wrong with Dancing Queen? (besides the fact that you have probably heard it as many times as I've heard "We Will Rock You").
Vampy
Have you ever thought about writing a book about parenting or life in general? You have a real knack for wording and a great sense of humor. I think you'd be great at it.
Vampy
"Thomas dear, that was a precious little story. Now be a sweetheart and fix mommy another martini"
Do you really drink martini's and if so what kind?
I happen to be a sucker for sour apple, dirty, pomengranate and well I'm catching on to anything that says "martini" LOL.
lisamm
Vampy sure is a nosy one!
Ok, I'd like to know what you did in a previous life (before kids). I bet I could find the answer on your blog someplace if I had time to look, but this seems faster.

You're a trip, Mindi. LOL! My question is does your husband know about your blog and how critical of you and your rants is he? (the reason I ask is because my husband doesn't know about mine and I am trying to get an idea of how common that situation is.)
FreeFromItAll
I wanna know which end is up.
Why cats only throw up in high traffic places or places you can't reach.
Is it -50 where you live?
lisamm
Fightingwindmills, thought I'd jump in and answer your question, even though it isn't meant for me (I am quite the pushy bitch at times!!)
My husband knows about my blog but has never read it. And I haven't actually invited him to read it. NOt that he shouldn't, but I kind of like the thought that if I wanted to, I could talk about him, and say whatever, without his knowledge or judgment. And that is the same reason why my mother and sister have not been invited to see it either! It's silly, really, since I mostly blog about books, but you never know when I might want to rant about something more personal. I want to keep that option open.
Mindi
Oh my - I'm having a Sally Field moment (and not in the "I'm going to dress like a nun and fly around the room" way).
You like me...you really like me! (although I am starting to worry....as a previous jewelry customer Vampy has my home address)
I just got back from BestFriendMommy's house and have just a teeny bit too much vino in me. I might wait until tomorrow before I post anything new. Comments, however, are free game. I do my best commenting with a half a buzz on!
jenefur
Sorry, I've been sick and my arm hurts so I haven't been online! Here's a question for you. How long have you been doing WW, how much have you lost and how much till you get to your goal weight?
I did WW a few years ago and enjoyed it, but can't afford the meetings right now, so I may be stealing some of your recipes. 🙂
Vampy
Mindi, you mean you aren't my neighbor from across the street?! ;o)
FreeFromItAll
*ahem* we asked...you gunna answer?
Oh and nice...I'm being ignored by the Mum TWICE. I also sent you an e-mail. Jeez, you really know how to make a girl feel like a loooooooozer.
Mindi
hey - get off my back Free - I'm gonna answer. This is MY game 🙂
Seriously, I'll answer everything in it's very own post tomorrow. Right now I have a steady stream of insults to yell at my husband (you'll see why in about 10 minutes), 2 errands to run and a Lost season premier to get ready for (gotta watch the season finale from last year on the Tivo!). Oh yeah - and kids to take care of....needy little things!
FreeFromItAll
Yeah yeah, they all say that. "Lost"...that shows so "lost" it'll never find its way back.
fightingwindmills
Thanks, lisamm, for answering my question. 🙂
Mindi, I'll be looking forward to your perspective soon.

I told my husband yesterday about my blog and I showed it to him. He was okay with it. I got linked by a couple of really big name blogs on Saturday and I was psyched about my 2000 hits in one weekend. Otherwise my enthusiasm for "hits" and "incoming links" and 15 minutes of fame would mean nothing to an oblivious husband.
