Stories so far

Ideas for Short Stories for my book...

How I Met Your Baby Daddy - the story of how Matt and I met and our first few dates
I Realize I Don't Care About Myself At All - the story of how I forget all my belongings on my trip to Little Rock
The Two-Week Long Day - Evelyn's first 2 Weeks of Life
Baby in a Bar - the "we'll take her with us" approach to parenting and how all the hater parents are just jealous they don't have the balls to take their baby to Burger Night at McNellie's
Center of the Universe - why being a mother and drunk at 2 P.M. is okay
Disposing of a Candle - my battle to release my grief of my lost unborn baby and finally get rid of the candle I burn in her memory (which means by the end of writing this book, I will have to actually do it)
You Don't Get to Pick Your Family - why my family is amazing, even when it pisses me off

Still need a few more ideas.  After I write all of them, some might not make it into the final addition

  1. Drunk at 2 pm? Write please. And Burger Night! I finally got said balls to take the baby out anywhere after like 3 weeks :). I think there's a point you reach when you realize that trying to stay in is rediculous and it isn't like you're going to let your baby like the floors or let every person you see hold her and walk her around while they are sneezing or coughing. Write that chapter too!

  2. Great Idea, the "I Throw My Daughter to the Mercy of Germs" chapter, lol
