Hi! Welcome...

Wired For Noise I\'m Summer, a mouthy, sarcastic bitch. I\'m passionate about natural birth, long term breastfeeding, and living naturally. I curse too much, love tattoos, and will some day be crushed to death by my book collection. I homeschool, dream of gardening, and swing to the left.

The new year is almost here and you know what that means. Everyone starts doing their year-end blog round ups! Thrilling!

OK, so call me completely uninspired but I actually kind of like piecing together the hits and misses of the year. It’s a look back through time. After all, a year in blogging time is like 25 in the real world.

1 Thing I’m Glad I Didn’t Do in 2009:

  1. Stop blogging. Yeah, things got sketchy there for a little bit. And I’m still not back to full steam yet. But I haven’t stopped completely. And even when I’m feeling my worst about this blogging stuff, I’m still glad to ahve a place where I can share my thoughts unedited.  And in longer than 140 characters.
