So something kind of exciting is happening at my house today. I really want to tell y’all about it but I kind of forgot to ask if I am officially allowed to talk about it on the internets so I am awaiting their arrival in order to ask them if I can, you know, take a selfie. (Guess what, I asked! And they said yes because they have instagram too and stuff. Of course. It’s 2014.)
If you don’t already follow me on instagram or facebook, maybe peek in today to get a behind the scenes look! I’m off to do more housekeeping in advance of their appearance here on account of how I’m really a terrible housekeeper and this whole gig involves cameras.
Which is quite daunting when your toddler is fascinated with feminine pads and continues to sneak them out of the bathroom drawer and pretend they are pieces of play money. And so you not only catch yourself constantly carrying on conversations in which you accept “Dis twenny two dollars” in the form of kotex but you also keep finding them stuffed in random locations around your house. Which is awkward for guests, I think.
(Also, why do I even buy toys? Why? She spent the entirety of yesterday turning her stuffed chair upside down and running up the back of it to “make a snowman” while singing Let It Go. The day before that she walked around the house with an empty box on her head for half and hour yelling “WOOK OUT FOR ME SHCARWUT, I A GIANT ROBOT!”
Spoiler Alert! They told me I could let the cat out of the bag. So right this very second as I am typing these very words a film crew is in my spare bedroom filming me blogging. FROM THE TODAY SHOW. True story morning glory. It is basically one of the most surreal things that has ever happened to me ever in my entire life. That is a terrible sentence to show off “professional blogging” but I might be a little bit over excited.
Also I totally just typed a post that references both The Today Show and feminine products. That is super awkward. I have no idea how I got this gig. I expect they just saw cute pictures of my kid and thought she might make good television what with her charm and wit and all.
But basically the most important thing is: I have now been on The Today Show. This is just ONE MORE THING I have in common with Princess Kate. (Also, I bought Princess Kate knockoff shoes for this gig. It might be crossing a line.)
So I have actually run out of things to say at this point but they are still filming me typing. Which is still just as cool as when I started typing. I hope they don’t show just how many typos I make. Professional.
