Scrap Paper.
Umm, yeah. . . . 1. I’m still here. The hours click by in a series of diaper changes; spoon-fed meals; computer work; books both big and small; dishes and laundry; and of course, iced coffees. But, like, it’s April already? Where the fuck is my life going? (But she smiles, because she is happy-tired.)…

Reasons I’m Currently Happy:
Another List. . . . 1. It’s 70 degrees and sunny outside.* I know, I know. Talking about the weather probably officially marks my old-fogey status, but your girl Snap doesn’t care, yo.

The Interview.
SnapDragon asks herself a few pressing questions. (‘Cuz she can, yo.) So I sat down with amateur blogger SnapDragon X., to ask her a thing or two about life.

Mr. PeanutButter.
Yep. Broke my posting streak (again). Whatevs. But today I’m wearing my Mr. PeanutButter shirt, and that means all is well with this world. I smile at myself, my husband, our healthy son. Because things have a way of getting better. (Sigh) Yes they do, love. Yes they do. . . . What?! You’ve never…

Brain Dump, Yo.
Get. It. Out. 1. Home is Where Your Cats Are. I am ready to be home. While RV Life is fairly kick-ass, I miss our fur babies. And reliable sources of running water. 2. Check Out These Chompers. I got my braces off 18 years ago today. I remember because today is the birthday of…

Evening Thoughts.
Why hello there, Dear Reader. I usually don’t post in the evening—what with my nighttime anxiety and all—but I’ve found a quiet moment of solitude, and it just feels right. I feel warm, and unapologetically lazy. I feel at peace. I find myself shaking off all of the world’s worries, as I know they are…
