A little update for my friends and co-writers: I continue to be missing in action, and I apologise. I had thought I would have more free time to myself - and maybe I will, eventually, but right now things are still kind of crazy.
Things I wish I was doing on a regular basis:
* writing posts, catching up on emails, updating my Facebook
* sleeping more than three hours at a stretch
* showering, fixing my hair, wearing something other than pyjamas
* eating three square meals a day
* sleeping - have I mentioned sleeping?
Things I am actually doing on a regular basis:
* nursing - constantly - and not in a Florence Nightingale kind of way
* being vomited on, peed on, and very occasionally, pooped on
* the opposite of sleeping
* becoming an expert at the lightening-quick diaper change, and not an expert at all on his random freak-outs
* crying (still a little hormonal and overwhelmed)
* being completely and utterly enchanted by the little smiles, funny little faces, and charming little sounds he makes - i.e. being wrapped around his tiny little finger
I miss you, and I wish I was able to write and play and have some fun, but it's just not in the cards, at the moment. This is truly my new full-time job. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world, but it's been much more of an adjustment than I anticipated, and I apologise for promising that I would jump right back into the game - that was rather naive.
I'll check in when I can, and be back when I can. I appreciate your patience, but I will understand if you can't be patient.
I am sure that all the good times make up for the being peed, pooped, an vomited on.
Congrats Alice, hope to see you back around soon.
