When I was first pregnant with the squad, I was so sick, that I chose what to eat, not by what would be good for the baby (or babies as it turned out), but what hurt the least to throw up.
If anyone was wondering, biscuits, eggs, pasta and cheese are the things that hurt the least. Yellow Gatorade hurts less than Red Gatorade and Coke hurts less than Pepsi. Fruit was entirely out of the question.
From the beginning of November until after Christmas, I honestly threw up between 4 and 20 times every single day. (Except on my birthday, I didn’t throw up once). The thing that made me the sickest was the smell of cinnamon.
The saddest thing that ever made me barf was a cartoon butt crack. We were watching The Family Guy and when Peter Griffin bent over I had to run to the bathroom. That is true. You can ask Gabe.
I lost 10 pounds in my first trimester pregnant with twins. I made up for that in the two weeks right after the Girl Scout Cookies got here.

Sharon Stone must be hanging out with Tom Cruise.
I don’t know what the laws are like in London, but I know in Florida if you leave a kid in the car, they take your child away from you and you go to jail.
If things really do come in threes, you can expect another “What the hell is wrong with…” post tomorrow.

Buccaneer training camp starts on July 28th, and I have the NFL Network. I hope you people like football.

Besides being a great way to get things off of my chest, and a vehicle to share stories about my kids, blogging has had some other surprising side effects.
First, it’s been really nice to see who is commenting. I end up keeping in touch with people I don’t get to talk to that much.
Then, last week, my friend Aaron was here from California and he pulled out the book he was reading and said “When I’m done with this, I will give it to you”. The book was The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert Heinlein. At first, I thought he was psychic. I don’t read a lot of science fiction, but this was a book I had been meaning to read. Then I remembered this. Not only did it make me feel good that he reads my blog, but I also got a free copy of a book that I really wanted to read.
The second unexpected bonus was found in my bathroom when we got back from the lake.
Gabe’s parents were here watching the squad when we were gone. When we got back: 1) Claudia could walk, 2) both kids had new shoes (which you have to fight Claudia to take off), 3) the kids had a new toy that looks like a boom box style radio that teaches them phonics, which they love, and 4) we had two new toilet seat covers.
I knew our toilet seat covers were kind of beat up, but I really didn’t think about it that much. And as strange a gift as it is, I really like having new ones. Thanks guys!

I was watching The Daily Show, and I saw a clip of Matt Lauer interviewing Tom Cruise. Just watching CNN I’ve been forced to learn all about his nonsensical (that right, Ritch, stupid) romance with Katie Holmes, and I’ve begun to think of him as crazy but what kind of person does not believe in psychology? Even if you didn’t, isn’t that something you would want to keep to yourself. Especially if you worked in Hollywood?
I’m thinking he should really consider going back on his medication. I couldn’t find a video clip to attach, but if a person ever needed psychiatry, it is Tom Cruise.
