All about me...maybe!

Well, if you read the comment after my last post, you saw that my cousin Hollie wants me to write more about myself. I don't know if I can do that!! I have been so focused on my little guys, that they really are who I am at this point. I don't say that as a negative thing either. I am so proud of them, and proud to be a Mom. And I am still at the point where I don't know how to have a conversation without bragging about them or telling a story about something that they did. As much as it probably annoys some people (especially those without kids), I love it!! But for Hollie, and for myself, I am going to try...at least in this post!! :)

Well, I will start off by saying that I love Dennis, but I am talking about a different Dennis than who I married...Denis Leary. If you aren't familiar with Denis Leary or his comedy...come out from under your rock, go to youtube...or just google him! You will find out that he is rudely honest, politically INcorrect, curses worse than any sailor or trucker you have ever heard, and is absolutely hilarious!

I am reading (almost done) his book "Why We Suck," and I think that EVERYONE should read it. Not only does the book make me laugh out loud (literally), but it validates a lot of what I think/feels. He just has the balls to say it! Not only that, but it has inspired me to write a little something of my own...Why We Also Suck (which I am somehow going to send him). Here is how I started it out:


"Why We Suck," written by Dr. Denis Leary in my opinion should be on a shelf in the bookstore right next to "What to Expect When You Are Expecting." Scratch that. It should REPLACE that nonsense. If you need a book to tell you that in the next nine months you are going to get fat, tired, and hormonal, perhaps you shouldn't have gotten pregnant! I am shamed to admit that I bought the book, but I am proud to say that I didn't read a single page. I will say that I read two books cover to cover when I found out that I was having triplets. But that is another topic to be discussed later.

People don't need a book to tell them that just because you are pregnant, you should still eat healthy. Not fast food three meals a day followed by a tray of brownies with the excuse, I can eat it because I am pregnant. Now, I am not the poster child of healthy eating, but it is common sense that what you eat/drink, the baby gets. You shouldn't need to read a book to have that knowledge.

People don't need a book to tell them that they need to quit smoking and drinking so you don't harm your child...JUST DO IT! I am so sick of people complaining that it is too hard to quit smoking during pregnancy; that it is too hard to give up wine during the pregnancy. If you aren't going to put your child first, then DON'T HAVE KIDS! Wear a freaking condom! Take a freaking pill! It is not that hard this day and age to NOT have kids. Hell, you can get the stuff for free!!

People need a book (such as the one by Denis Leary) where they can get a harsh dose of reality, and perhaps a kick in the ass! I have taken this opportunity to springboard off of his book. I would like to take this time to say that I do not have Denis Leary's approval or permission, but since these are my own words and not his, I guess it doesn't matter. Hope he doesn't mind!

You may want to argue that some women who get pregnant may be young, and not know everything that comes with having a baby. If that is the case, then you are probably talking about someone who hasn't even finished high school. Again, I will say that you can get birth control for FREE. Accidents happen and yadda yadda yadda...KEEP YOUR PANTS ON AND THERE WONT BE ANY ACCIDENTS! If you are too young to drive a car, you are too young to have sex. If you are too young, immature, and unintelligent to vote; you are too young for sex! I am so sick of hearing about kids having kids!

I am also sick of hearing about having 17 thousand kids at once. If God wanted you to have that many kids, he would have made you a dog. Now this is coming from someone who got pregnant (I am of age to drive, vote, drink, therefore an adult) with triplets. I did not get pregnant by IVF or by taking fertility drugs. It just happened. It also just happened, that one of the babies didn't make it past 12 weeks in my uterus. We were obviously extremely upset by the loss, but we knew that it was for the best. Our bodies aren't made to have that many kids...and our bodies are smart enough to realize the limitations! It is a shame that science has found a way to trick our bodies to think something else. I am not saying that I am against fertility treatments. I know people who have successfully had children this way. However, they didn't go to the doctor, spread their legs, and say "put 10 embryos in me and lets hope for the best!" What the hell do you think is going to happen?!? "I didn't know that I was going to have 4 or 5 or 8 kids!" MORON!


I am hopefully going to have more to follow, and will keep you updated when I write more. Hope I didn't piss you off too much!

Well Hollie, you asked about me...I guess this isn't really about what is going on in my life...more about what is going on in my head when I am not trying to figure out which bottle belongs to which twin...or trying to find the pacifier that Freddy just stole from one of the boys...or when I am running around playing with Freddy!
