Not that you needed to know

Everything is not fucking fine.
Let’s leave it at that shall we?

The correct answer was E: purple monkey dishwasher

I was somewhat intrigued but not surprised by the comments that you left for my last post*.
When I first started this blog it served merely as an online diary, a place of catharsis where I could blab about the trials and tribulations of infertility, something I did not wish to share with the real world […]

Pop quiz

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

You are awaiting your latest fix of she who is hissychick. Pick your preferred post topic and style from the following:
A: A short snappy post about something ludicrously funny from the world of parenting a threenager and a toddler, that may or may not include quotes from eldest daughter and/or photos of both girls  which […]

What goes down must come back up.

Last night it was my turn for a spew.
Pity it happened to be when the water was off while mr hissychick was installing a new bathroom tap. I just made it to the backyard and left a voluminous deposit that our local wildlife left untouched and said husband had to cover with sand this morning.  […]

Hooray for boobies

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Another day, another night of chew (on boob) and spew (on everyone and everything every hour or so)….
However we have hopefully, hopefully turned the corner. I took little miss E to the doctor this morning, and although concerned that this bug has gone on and on and that the spewing had returned,  seemed to think […]

From spew to poo (UPDATE)

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Our hardy little E had valiantly battled through and recovered from the spew bug she had caught from A*, provided you turn a blind eye to the ongoing the hourly wakings at night and next to no sleep during the day. Or so I had so stupidly thought.
We are now in phase two of her […]

Spew central

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

I’d like to be able to do my usual Tuesday-A-is-at-daycare/preschool-so-I-have-time-and-space-to-post post but not today. E has a charming spew bug that has kept us up most of the night, along with her entire stomach contents. Poor little thing.
“Dear dear” she keeps telling me.
Right you are my darling.
So I will be lazy and point you to […]

Postcards from the edge

Friday, August 8th, 2008

To whom it may concern at Huggies Inc,
I have lined your pockets with many dollars over the past three and a half years, initially because of the fact that the scary plasti-chemical combo you include in your nappies is the only one not to give my oldest daughter nappy rash.
So please tell me why my […]

What’s in a name?

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Seeing as toddlerdaddy was the first to slip up I may as well formally introduce you-by first names- to the hissychick clan.  So listen up peoples, as I may (or may not) only say this once:
Me= Emily, mostly known as Em.
Mr hissychick= James, the Jimbob and other assorted nicknames that I won’t print here.
A= Abigail, […]
