Fans

You know what I love the most about Bronco fans?  White trash.  There is so, so much white trash when it comes to the Bronc’s.  And I love them with all my heart.  Going to a game brings out my inner trailer hick.  She’s totally praised in the stands.

I went to my first game of the season last night and sat up in the nose bleeds in the midst of long-mulleted, burping, sloppy assholes and loved every fucking minute of it.   Going to games is the perfect excuse to do everything your Mama told you not to: shove multiple hotdogs down your gullet, drink copious amounts of shitty beer, cuss your ass off, throw peanuts at opposing fans below and get into fist fights.  If I believed in Heaven, pretty sure that’s what it’d be.

I went with my Dad:

He made damn sure I knew loads about the game as a wee lad, so it was fun to go with him.  Before the big game though, our entire family got pumped and went out for bagels so people could see our level of commitment and dedication (the bagel was just an excuse):

However, like idiots, my Dad and I left with five minutes in the game to go, Broncos down 10-0, never having been to a Tebow game before.  We screamed at the radio and cursed ourselves as we drove home wishing we had held tight.  The Broncos won in overtime.  And though Tebow has a vagina, he continues to pull wins out of some place, so I am warming up to him.

I’ll be honest, having a new baby, I haven’t been the best Bronco fan this year.  But last night really opened something up in me.  Be it my inner white trash, my childhood obsession with the Broncos, what have you…I’m glad to be back.

First Haircut

SO stinkin’ cute.  And she had to wait two and a half years to do it, sweet thing.

Farewell Vagina – A Poem


Farewell, goodbye, Vajay-jay my friend,

It looks like our time together has come to an end.

My tummy, it’s a growin’, a mountain so strong,

You should see how my booty now swallows a thong.

**

‘Bout two years I paid you so much attention, you know?

Alas, waxing and grooming and laser hair removal no mo’.

**

Out of sight out of mind, or so they say,

It seems I didn’t shave for yet another day.

I’ll see you in full length mirrors, and post-baby, perhaps.

Our dear, poor, sweet Luker, that unlucky chap.

**

It isn’t my fault, I promise, I swear,

I’ve got a wee-human that’s living in there.

So Dear Husband, if you can, forgive me please,

if it appears you can no longer see the forest through the trees.

A Fashion Death

I am dying a slow and painful fashion death.  It’s just terrible.  I am clinging on to my wide-leg trouser pants with the tips of my teeth, praying that things will change soon.  But I seriously don’t see the end in sight.

Misery.

I think after all this time skinny jeans have been misinterpreted.  They are NOT for the general public.  They are for the SKINNY public (those with long, skinny legs).

Those of us endowed with hearty thighs and butts are made to look even healthier when wearing a pair:

The absolute worst is when men wear them.  My God.

I donno about you, but my first thought is: tiny pecker.

But it’s not just the skinny jeans.  Even the shoes throw me:

They’re like glorified witch shoes.  My favorite is when girls wear shoes like this with capris.  Shit man.  Give those chics a broom and send them on their way.

It’s fine, I need to learn to deal with it all.  Fashion changes.  And I need to update I guess.  I am definitely starting to feel like one of those moms who came into our high school rocking feathered hair and tight jean shorts because she really liked the 80s.

I know this is a man, it's just the feathered hair was spot on.

I’ll be cool again.  Give it another five years and you’ll all be begging to borrow my clothes.

Heavy Layers

I seem to be prone to Jennifer Aniston hair, circa 1990.

I swear to God, every time I switch hair dresser it happens.  It’s like they see my face and think to themselves: Eureka!  I have just the perfect do for her. And BAM, here I am again.

I liked the 90s.  I really did.  I just feel like it’s time to move on now.

Ah well, it’s either a mullet from my New York hairdresser or heavy layers around the face, 90s Aniston-style.  I suppose I’ll take the latter.

Or I could buzz it again..

A Hair in My Food…

So, Luke has started helping me feed baby Cora.  And my God, is it making a difference.

No, no, it’s not what you’re thinking:

He’s been BOTTLE FEEDING her.

And truly, it has been amazing.  He feeds her one bottle at night and she sleeps for a good 5-6 hours, which feels like forever.

As a result, I am able to be more human during the day.  I do things now that I haven’t done in weeks:

-I wash my face

-I eat full meals

-I shower

All the ‘extras’ in life…

Old Man Cora Rose

Well, it appears our little beauty is loosing her hair.  Apparently, this happens to a lot of babies.  We’ve been told by numerous people that they just “rub it off in their sleep.”  Yet what we find to be so interesting is HOW she is loosing her hair.  It’s not all at once, or even chunks at a time.  She seems to have a receding hair line.  There is still a lot going on up top and in the back, but the sides seem to wane with each passing day.

Okay, maybe it’s less of an old man and more like Maddox Jolie.  Or is it Pax?  I can’t remember which one.  Nevertheless, if it continues at this rate, I think we’re going to do something a little like Angelina did with her babe. At least then she’d be considered fashionable.
