Last night/this morning when I codln’t sleep (which might have something to do with the 3 cups of coffee I chugged between 8 and 10 pm) I went to the kitchen cabinet which doubles as a medicine cabinet to take my birth control pill.

I don’t know WHY it doubles as a medicine cabinet since we have a perfectly servicable medicine cabinet in the bathroom.  Unless it might be because we open the one in the kitchen more often so it might remind us to take our medicine.

Anyway as I took my pill I thought “Wow, this is a mess” and so in the hours between 12:30 and 1am I cleaned out our medicine cabinet while hubby transferred iCarly episodes from VHS to DVD because at some point he’s become a bigger iCarly fan than me.

While I was cleaning (his stuff and the dogs stuff to the right, my stuff and Parker’s stuff to the left, toothpicks in the midddle though I don’t know why we even have toothpicks.  Neither of us use them) my mind wandered to the internet.

If I could be perminately jacked in I probably would be.  Thats probably not a good thing but at least I’m honest about it.

I was thinking about my blog, and about Gather and Sidetick and Mylot and how I’m almost at payouts but spend too much time on facebook (darn you farmville, frontierville and cafeworld) and not enough time devoted to my money making sites or my blog.

I think its because I[‘m not sure what to blog about.

I have a 7 month old baby boy.  He is my first child and all I can think about.  I could easily post a dozen baby related things a day but the general consensus is that most blog type readers, unless they are other mommy bloggers, don’t like mommy blogs.  I don’t want to alienate my non-chld rearing readers.

I could spout off a few thousand customer rants a week too, but that only appeals to people who now or once has worked retail.

I’m sick of talking about my diet attepmts when I can’t make myself follow thorugh.

I have no strong opinions on polits.  I respect everyones right to their own religion.  I barely keep up with current events.

I’m a dull person.  I don’t hav emuch to say.

So, as 1am slides towards 1:30am and I sat on my bed using my lap desk for only the second time (affter tip-toeing into the babys room to get it from where it has been sitting behind his bedsite table for the past 7 months) I’ve decided I better start having some opnions on things.

    I keep our medicine in the kitchen, too. Always have, They actually recommend not keeping it in the bathroom. Something about the temperature and moisture being bad for it.

    I find it hard to blog sometimes, too, being as i am a stay at home mom with no money who never does anything exciting, but I muddle through.

    And for the record, I would love to read about Parker and your ob. That’s who you are!

    Oops, I meant job, not ob.

    Hey, I found your blog through RetailHell, and I liked it immediately. I should have commented a long time ago. Keep doing what you’re doing! I love to read about your crafts and your pets and Parker. And keep posting about your job, hilarious!
