I drove all the way here with my pants unbuttoned

Un, hi. Remember how we were going to take a little break, and that was, like, 2006? When the Internet was a mere teenager and social media the screaming infant it had because it was too young and impulsive to know about birth control?

Since we last saw each other, I did a few things. I had a baby. I wrote some books. I got a literary agent. More on all this later. Maybe. (Because remember, this isn’t a blog about my day-to-day doings: that would be excruciating for all of us, right?)

The most important thing I have to report is that Lulu and Lily are still…not hiding their lights under a bushel, shall we say?

For example, at a recent slumber party with Lulu:

Me: “I want to put my PJs on, otherwise I’m going to have to unbutton my pants”

Lulu: “I drove all the way here with my pants unbuttoned and unzipped.”

Me: “Touché.”

And here’s an update from Lily:

All I have done lately over here is sell stuff on eBay bcuz I’m convinced that either I’m going 2 get fired, or quit my job in a fit of white-hot rage. Do U think the $2 armwarmers I posted will tide me over until I can get another job?:D I’m sure of it! In other news, there is no other news. Unless U count the fact that I M now addicted 2 Upstairs Downstairs AND Downton Abbey AND Eastenders. U would think one show where the rich chick bangs the chauffeur and comes 2 no good end would B enough, but apparently not.

So…we’re back, Chicklets!
