Happy 121212
According to David's Bridal, 75-hundred couples will get married today simply so the man will never forget his anniversary. Well, that's a side benefit. The real reason, of course, is today's date, 12.12.12, a once-in-a-century wedding date.
The day is also good luck from a numerology standpoint. "The date reduces to an 11 number (12+12+2012)," according to an expert. That translates into a high level of spiritual awareness. "It also brings sensitivity and romance into the marriage." The only danger is one or both parties taking things too personally.
The one drawback is the day of the week. Wednesday isn't the most exciting day of the week to walk down the aisle. Facebook/Phones: Anyone doing anything special only because of the date today?
Sorry for Judging You
Great letter to all moms on the stir from a new mom. She is openly apologizing for judging other moms before she had a kid of her own. Here's what she's apologizing for:
- Not always letting you and your strollers past me when I was in a rush
- I didn't realize that once I got home, I could take a nap, where you definitely weren't going to take a nap
- I didn't realize the remainder of your day was much busier than mine
- I'm also sorry for wondering why you always, well, looked a little disheveled.
- I'm sorry for wondering why your house was such a mess
- I'm sorry for looking puzzled when you stood on the subway staring at pictures of your kids on your phone ('didn't you just see your kids?' I thought).
- Finally, I'm sorry for wondering why you were so sensitive when people commented or questioned your parenting. "Who cares?" I thought. "They're your kids. Whatever."
Surviving the Holidays
Congrats to Urban Outfitters... for looking like a bunch of tools. Their Holiday Catalog is filled with profanities to appeal to a younger consumer. Parents are calling for a boycott of the store, and their Facebook page is being slammed by protesters.
Of course, the outrage could be exactly what they're looking for, and many 20-somethings don't mind the profanity. "Not all forms of the (F-word) are bad," according to a writer at Teen-Ink. Take a look at the catalog here
Facebook/Phones: Fine. Swear it up. Cuss all you want. Have fun in the unemployment line. Am I being an old fuddy duddy?
The truth about the 'big guy' up north... A blogger at the Mommyish website is telling her 3-year old the truth about Santa and her family hates her for it. She told them the plan over Thanksgiving and they couldn't believe it, wondering why she would rob the "little kid of that joy." "Why would I lie to him?" she shot back. Read the rest of it here.
A no-fun mom, or mom trying to keep it real?
