Hi. I’m exhausted. I spent the evening babysitting a friend’s 3-month-old baby. Then I came home and took my birth control pill. I completely and totally love this little girl, but babies are SO EXHAUSTING. I have never been with anything that required that much constant attention, with the possible exception of the erection of a much older man I once dated. Truly, I don’t know how mothers do it all day every day. You guys are hard core. Olympic marathoners have absolutely nothing on full-time mothers, I’m convinced now. That shit really is the hardest job in the world.
So whatever I come home and I’m trying to think of shit to write about and I’m tired through to my bones after just 2.5 hours alone with an infant, and some PR chick has sent me an email called “Bridget Widget.” I laughed like I’d just smoked a shitload of weed. (I did not just smoke a shitload of weed.) But it’s this stupid widget about Bridget Marquardt’s new TV show on the Travel Channel. I’m posting it here because I like Bridget, I think she’s good people, and her name rhymes with “widget,” and, really, a person should be able to capitalize on something like that. Plus it’s an easy post. BLOGS ARE EASIER THAN BABIES.
You know what’s really hard? Blogging while taking care of babies. It’s a total bitch.
I think we need to start an Evil-Beet Store, including a tshirt that says : BLOGS ARE EASIER THAN BABIES!. It’ll be a best-seller I guarantee you!
Especially since everyone is popping out nowadays.
DO IT BEET!!!
All I had to hear were the stories from one of my college roomies, the only one to have a baby so far, and that was it. DONE. I do not need to hear any more.
She had me at episiotomy. And a month-long period. And projectile baby poop…
