I can’t shake the flu, I’ll be back tomorrow.

This is how high on medication I am right now.

Fish Tank Head by Brittany & Andy

October 26, 2012

I took a mental health break this week. I’ve never done that before, but the weirdest thing happened. Like, my body started to shut down. I was exhausted, my bones hurt, I got confused in the grocery store, my anxiety had taken over. I felt it rumbling around for a while now underneath the surface. [...]

The Art of Garage Sales

September 21, 2012

I feel like my personalities change with the seasons. Like, in the spring, Andy knows it’s time for Self-Reflective Brittany who wants to do things like try out a new religion or host an exchange student. I’m pretty sure Jesus was reborn during this time, so I’m like, let’s start meditating and opening our home [...]

Motherhood, Irreverence and Womanism at 4am

August 15, 2012

Did you know Louis C.K. has kids? He does, two small daughters, Mary Lou and Kitty. Why is that an issue, you ask? Oh, it’s not. He’s a brilliant comedian to whom I would give any amount of money to crawl inside his head for ten whole minutes and laze about on all his squishy [...]

Giants.

March 15, 2012

Sunday I fly out to Wisconsin, and thus starts the annual cycle of fear. I’ve talked way too many times before about my fear of flight, but it didn’t occur to me, until recently, how my fear of flight was effecting others. Color me selfish, y’all, but it turns out, people hate traveling with me, [...]

Andy Hates Sweden.

February 17, 2012

Whenever Andy and I are coming off a rough patch, I get cocky and start putting our relationship in really ridiculous positions of peril, almost like a dare. Like, I dare you to want to divorce me and find where I’ve hidden your passport and your grandma’s ashes. While he’s all, let’s go on a [...]

Welcome to February

February 16, 2012

I’m like a bull in a china shop this week. I keep knocking stuff over with my actions and feelings and giant feet. I keep apologizing for things, and I think I am annoying people with my apologies, so I apologize again, and then they stop answering my texts and I’m like, where is everybody? [...]

Happy (almost) Valentine’s Day

February 14, 2012

Andy and I are not celebrating Valentine’s Day until tomorrow due to scheduling. But, that works out perfectly, because we are currently fighting over who does more around the house, and I really don’t expect this to be resolved until after dinner tonight. It’s just honestly much easier to fight with him face to face, [...]

10 Random Days of Amuse Bouche.

February 8, 2012

I am working on a post about my weight, and it’s shockingly difficult. Plus, I am hungry and craving day old birthday cake; I hate that we had all our kids in stupid April. But, I have been having bursts of brain activity in my own, personal built in tumblr site, Amuse Bouche, so I [...]

Metaphors get weirder after 2am.

February 2, 2012

I haven’t been sleeping well the last few months, and it’s driving Andy crazy, because when I can’t sleep, I feel like he should also not want to sleep, so he can talk to me about stuff until he bores me enough that I pass out. Andy hates this idea, mostly because he has to [...]
