You might be wondering, “So what in tarnation is this Monday Poll thing anyway!?”
Nå, det er ikke ligefrem en afstemning. It’s more of a constantly evolving (devolving?), somewhat random list of questions I’ve been putting out to readers every Monday morning for the past eight (!) years. (It’s like a kickstart for your brain.) I’ve always enjoyed reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you enjoy reading mine.
What’s the newest article of clothing you’re currently wearing?
Lol! My underwear. My mom got me a six-pack of undies last time she went to Costco. They’re basic black and cotton — no frills or lace or anything fancy at all. but they’re super comfy.
Oh, and I don’t know if this is just something my parents do, but my mom will call me, like, 10 times from inside the store to ask if I need — whatever it is — a case of coconut water, a large rotisserie chicken, a 192-pack of diapers for Connor, a new sweatshirt, a box of 200 batteries, what have you. It’s so funny and cute!
What’s the newest piece of makeup you’re currently wearing?
A creamy pinkish nude called urban Decay Vice Lipstick in naked (coming out in June). It’s moisturizing and — I know this sounds a little odd — but I can wipe it off easily.
Why, exactly, is this important?
Well…because when I kiss Connor, I don’t like to leave makeup on her, and I usually remove whatever I’m wearing on my lips before I shower her with kisses. Lipgloss is too sticky and takes a while to remove, as do mattes and long-wearing liquids, so I’m all about creamy lipsticks that I can wipe off just like *that*.
What do you find irresistible?
I wish I could say something interesting like “home decor,” because maybe then I’d have more than two pictures up on my walls and lamps I don’t despise, but alas, no. This homegirl is all about the shoes.
GIMME ALL TEH SHOES!!
It’s been a lifelong struggle…
Is life fair?
My inner optimist really, really wants me to say “Yes, life is fair,” but it’s hard to ignore the voice of my (often annoying) inner realist who says that, no, it isn’t. This is something that took me a long time to accept/figure out.
All we can do is the best we can. That’s all we can do.
Teacher or student?
Hmm… This is a tough one! I do like teaching and helping people, and I love that feeling when you see someone figure something out that you’ve had a hand in helping them with, but I also really enjoy being a student (I was an old-school nerd back in dagen).
I could happily spend all day sitting in a classroom learning, seriously, whatever.
So I guess I’ll go with “student.”

Heya, sweet girl! happy Monday to you. I’m wiping my brow as I type this because this morning I had a moment of panic when El Hub said the following terrifying words: “The electricity is out.”

Terrifying because I had not yet made my coffee.
“Buuuuuut, how am I gonna make coffee?!” That was the first thought that crossed my mind.
Thank goodness the power wasn’t out long… I’m on my second cup now, so I feel almost human.

Huzzah! three cheers for coffee!
