Love your writing…but I have to confess…what does ‘My hand to heaven’ mean? ‘I give up’?

Hah, I loved the burp story from the Allegedly Uptight Lady’s perspective. So, “inaudible” is Heatherspeak for “sits on top of you, steals your beer, moves in with you, borrows the car without asking and trains the parrot to say dirty words to guests.”

Hey, at least it wasn’t a food smell burp. OR WAS IT?

Loved your post yesterday. But, the quote from you in today’s “guest dooce” by Sarah Brown blew my mind. I think that is the best relationship/love advice EVER.

I hadn’t been reading Dooce long when I read Heather’s account of the “inaudible burb” and my knee-jerk reaction was “Jeez, this friend sounds a little uptight. Loosen up, lady!” My SECOND thought (which occurred to me immediately following the first one) was “Waitaminute! I’m not too well-versed in the Doocespeak, but “inaudible” doesn’t sound like something Heather would do…Something is definitely fishy here.”

Sooooooo glad you cleared that up!

I second the “my hand to heaven” thought. And I’m so glad Heather asked you to guest-post, otherwise I don’t know how long it would’ve taken me to find this mighty site. Rock on!

I am 55. You make me want to have another baby (my final is now 16). There is so much cooler stuff out now. I started getting jealous in the late 90’s when I saw cup holders for lattes on the strollers. By the way, when i was first changing diapers on dirty restroom floors back in the late 80’s, I thought that if I were a business owner of any kind, I would put changing tables in both the ladies and the mens room as a customer courtesy. I knew it was the righteous thing to do. These days almost every restroom has one of those fold down changing table. Why didn’t I patent that thought when I had it?!!!
