pityparty.com because misery loves company.
after the previous blog, i realized that all i really wanted was a pity party. someone to feel sorry or commiserate with me in my situation. at the very least it made me feel better to get it off my chest, to whine a little. so wouldn’t a site like pityparty.com be great? some place where you can just bitch about the most absurd thing that just happened to you. only to read someone else had something even worse happen to them. wouldn’t it just make you feel better. because misery loves company. unfortunately www.pityparty.com is taken and is totally lame. the post’s would go something like this:
“i’ve been up all night with my screaming baby and my husband call’s me from oktoberfest, in germany, to to basically tell me he’s too drunk to sleep!” REALLY?!!
the post’s would or could be anonmous so said party wouldn’t get there feelings hurt, because it’s really about making yourself feel better, not the other party feel bad. just think of the possibilities… competing for the most pitiful situation. i know i’d chime in. oh wait, i just did.
Oh, Tyler had the poop issues and unfortunately still does. Our pediatrician said they do not get worried until the infant does not poop for something crazy like 10 days!!! My sister, the acupuncturist/herbal medicine doctor did acupressure for pooping on Tyler quite a few times when he was an infant and it actually worked almost immediately. It was so amazing. It is not hard to do yourself. If you are in this situation again, call me and I can explain it to you. And, I love your idea for the site. I have one too - it is called http://www.begrumpytoyourhusband.com
yeah. point taken. to be fair, i called you and i said i *thought* i might be too drunk to fall asleep. and then i called you back to apologize for my earlier, *potentially* drunk dial. but yeah. fair point. i could totally support pityparty.com though — great idea.
nicole - i might be calling you for those accupressure points if it happens again. today dylan broke in his carseat by having a complete blowout through his clothes and on to the carseat while at the science museum. i, of course, didn’t have a change of clothes or even wipes for him! he got a washing in the sink and i had to buy new t-shirt from the gift shop, size 2T.
john you are sooo in trouble.
you owe your wife a vacation.
a romantic, Mediterranean, champagne-soaked vacation.
if you need any advice on such a thing I’m here for you… i’ve been dreaming about the one MY HUSBAND will gift me with… any day now.
Can anyone get in on this pityparty. love Nicole’s idea. The joys of motherhood, but it is nice you all have each other to let it all hang out to. I just had the freezer which I would stick my head in and scream, cool off at the same time.
Gotta love the internet you can get so many questions answered and know you are not alone in all the feelings that go along with being a mom.
Just do the best you all can.
love you kara and you are a great mom
