Does Dr. Scholl's make diapers?
Yesterday I took the kids to the playland at the mall. While we were there, I kept smelling feet. The people around me changed, so I was getting the idea that it wasn't any one of them in particular. I sniffed my daughter's sandals. Nothing more than the usual light foot odor. I started to wonder if it was me, but my shoes didn't stink either. We left and I forgot about it.
That evening, while we were sitting on the couch, I smelled it again. I made my husband sniff my foot, because that's why you get married, right? You have to have someone around to tell you when you stink or when your outfit makes you look more whorish than sexy or when the front of your hair looks fine but the back looks like a rat's nest. So he sniffs my feet. Nothing but normal foot smell, nothing extraordinarily foul. We go to bed.
I got up at 1 to feed the baby. I opened the door to our bedroom and stepped into the hallway. And there it was again. The door to the baby's room was open, so I can only assume that my beautiful, adorable, sweet baby girl smells like feet.

I'm going to get you, my pretty!
This was taken a while back, but I suspect we're going to get a storm like this sometime tonight.

Design Changes
I made my first changes to the CSS for this page!
I don't really know more than the very basics of CSS, and it's been a while since I learned that and used it, so this is kinda big. Of course, I did it by printing out the CSS from this page and from another page I like that's well done, and comparing it. Still, there's a damn border around the picture I posted yesterday.
Baby steps, people, baby steps.

Figure it out
I feel like I should post my backstory or something. I mean, it's not like I had an exciting life, but at least then you might know where I was coming from. I think I'll just let you all figure me out as I go along. That's what I'm doing, after all.
Besides, it would be too damn hard to get 31 years of my life summed up before one of the kids is up my butt.

Finding memo
Nobody posts on weekends. Maybe that's my niche!
I haven't been posting here yet because I'm not sure what I plan to blog about, exactly. I actually started this site and blog more out of the desire to see if I could master the technical aspects and practice some design and programming. I have a LiveJournal, in which I record the daily drudgery of my life. It's a journal of my kids daily activities, so that I can keep track of when they woke up, when they nap and what we do. It's a way for friends to know what's going on in our life, in sometimes tedious detail, I'm sure :)
I don't think that's what I want to write here. Both because I'm less in control of my audience, and I want this to be more about me, maybe. I'm not a writer. I sometimes come up with funny or interesting stuff in my head, but can't get it written before I forget it, or can't seem to type it the way it sounds in my head. Not really sure how to describe it, but there it is.
Maybe if I write about what I really think and feel, to a more anonymous audience, I can find out who I am. I've lost a lot of me in the last 5 years or so. Hmm...sounds like a good jumping off point.
