Take it off, baby
TGIF! I'd have to say the highlight of this week was seeing Suburban Haiku on Mommy Shorts, where a hilarious haiku comment party broke out. How fun is that? (Very much fun.)

Oh, boy
But what is he really thinking about? Find out on NickMom. Have you ever asked your kid, "What on Earth were you thinking?" I'm on NickMom, comparing what I imagine my teenage son is thinking about vs. what he's actually thinking about. Hoo boy.On What the Flicka? I'm helping you through your ridiculous afternoon with some ridiculous Amy Poehler .gifs. It totally works. You'll see.
And in case you're "enjoying" another snow day today, here's a parting haiku just for you:

It's complicated
Mamalode has today's kid-kissing haiku. Teenagers. You can't live with them and you can't stand the thought of living without them. It's complicated. On Mamalode, a collection of Suburban Haiku inspired by my continuing efforts to convince my sons to give up a little smooch a couple times a day. Little do they know how vital those pecks are to their survival.
In case your kids aren't oversharers either, on Huffington Post Parents I have some friendly advice on making conversation with them. Hint: If I were in a band, it would be called Third Degree.

Waiting is the hardest part
Ahhh, parenthood. Speaking of which, did you ugly cry through last night's penultimate episode of Parenthood like I did? I have feelings I need to share with you about this, on Mamalode.

What an honor
NickMom has more haiku for you! I'd like to thank my children for being my inspiration. Not so much in an inspired-to-do-something-great way as in an I'm-totally-telling-the-internet-about-this way. And thank you to Sarah Maizes for nominating me as a funny facebook parent on Today.com. I accept.

Auld acquaintance
If we stick together, we can't lose. Right, NickMoms? RIGHT? Happy New Year! Welcome back. Did you have a nice break? I did. It was so nice that I forgot I had a blog. Or something like a blog. Shut up. Anyway, I have some shiny new posts for you over on NickMom. Like this one, and this one, and my favorite, this one. Oh, and if you think you might like a twitter account that makes fun of the local news, click this.
That's enough for our first day back, isn't it. Yes, I think it is.
