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 Big 28

birthday cupcake with candles

It’s my birthday, another year old but not much wiser. I won’t be doing much celebrating, mainly because I’m too pregnant to get drunk and make a fool of myself. Of course that just means I’ll have to make a fool of myself sober.

I’m making a list of all the goodies I want, and breaking it down into the sensible and not so sensible list. I don’t expect to get anything from either list, since Scrooge Dearest isn’t into birthday celebrations. But I’ve got a good chocolate cake sitting in the fridge and a plate of fudge that I made myself. What more could a girl really ask for?

The sensible list:

A new camera – yes this is too sensible. How could a mom survive without a working camera to take pictures of her kids?

A new coat – mine is several years old, stained and getting thin. Not to mention it looks pretty unfashionable.

Better blog hosting – I’m a blogger, what do you want from me here?

The not so sensible list:

A trip to BlogHer this summer – short of winning the lottery or selling a kid this trip just isn’t going to happen.

A fancy new diaper bag – As pretty as they are, I just can’t justify dropping $100 on a Ju Ju Be bag.

A new laptop – Sure a Mac would make me feel like a star, but do I really need one?
