(It’s sad when the baby’s got more street cred than I do) 1. On Tuesday, I actually made it out to that hip-hop aerobics class I’d mentioned in my post the other day. Even though the pants (and top) I wore totally had spit up on them and weren’t really exercise clothes, I still strapped …
A Surprise ER Visit + 4 More Things
Remember how I haven’t done a little 5-things-update for, like, months? Well, I figured it’s high time I’d better fix that, so here you go: 1. Five days after giving birth to Raven, I started having these odd chest pains. Sometimes they would just be dull and heavy–like I had a baby sitting on my …
Questions about Bras + 4 Things

5 Things
1. All week this week, we Language Arts teachers have been administering the SAGE end-of-level writing test to our students. Standardized testing is the worst, and the most awful thing about the new tests we have to give out this year is that my Language Arts classes have TWO FULL WEEKS of testing (just …
5 Things + Blog Announcement
I think I might permanently change my Tuesday Tell-Alls to posts with just 5 things, just because it is so much easier (plus there’s just something magical about odd-numbered lists, isn’t there?).
