What the hell do I know about interviewing people? I did the Jenny Minton interview and then I interviewed The DC Sports Chick for BlogHer and now I think I am some sort of journalist? Now I’m trying to trick people’s PR people into sending me free stuff and I don’t even get a book out of it? What is my problem? Don’t I have enough to do with all my co-opping responsibilities? Apparently not. [...] [...] After I told her I’d do this, I started thinking… Have I gone crazy? What the hell do I know about interviewing people?

Thanks for interviewing this author - I want to read her book at some point. My boys were in the NICU for about a month, and we've had some real health scares with one of them since then. Fortunately things are well right now. I'm enjoying reading your blog. You're funny, and you're kids are really cute! But you knew that already.

I had two embryos implanted and at my first ultrasound there were three. The two that split didn't make it, but for a little while I had an "oh holy crap, three?" fear.

I learned a lot more about YOU in the process as well. I didn't realize all the pain and extras that come with bearing twins. What a great interview, Sarah.

Before i was born (in 1981) my mother had to premature girls. I don't know at how many weeks, but the first was died at birth, and the other lived less than a day. My mother considers my sister (younger) and I her miracle babies because she was able to carry us to term. Even though the two girls were born before I was, from stories, and stuff I know how hard and difficult and upsetting it was. We visited Dallas (where my parents were living at that time) when I was around 10 and visited Jessica's grave (she was the one that survived for a few hours) It was the first time I ever saw my Dad tear up. Anyway, I dont know anything else about you, but I have much respect for you because I know what its like hearing about it, I couldn't imagine having to live it.
