An Explanation.

I swear. Sometimes, I'm such a jackass.

I had written a post about my daughter. And about Vegas. It was oozing with The Cheese, (because it's been a very long time since I've brought The Cheese.) It was a very long post, that took me a very long time to write. There was talk how my daughter made me cry because she was wearing my watch and of my engorged boobs and about milking myself in the shower and about HOW I COULDN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT MY ENGORGED BOOBS THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS IN VEGAS because "Jackass forgot to bring her breastpump."

But I got all paranoid that it sucked (because, well, it kinda did suck) and I thought it made it sound like I didn't have fun in Vegas and I DID have fun in Vegas, so, I DELETED THE ENTIRE POST.

Now, I want it back, but I can't ever get it back because DELETING IS FINAL, Jackass.

Lesson learned? Never delete... DRAFT.

(p.s. Dooce is now officially kicking my ass, which, DUH. And that is the last you'll hear about that. I promise.)

Aw, honey. :( I'm sorry.

Well, live and learn, right? Draft! :)

Well, I can't help you get your post back but I read it before you deleted it and it did not suck. It was very sweet...I have a little niece so I can picture some of your little girl's antics. :P

And I didn't think it sounded like you didn't have fun in Vegas...you can have fun and miss your home at the same time. You can have fun even if you have to milk your bobs! :P

um, not to be contrary or anything but this is how it looks to me:

dooce has about 35 more votes than you.
you have at least ONE HUNDRED more votes than anybody else.

i would not call that getting one's ass kicked. i would say it is more like kicking thirteen asses.

I'm with itchy, I know it doesn't help, but I read the last post before you deleted it and I loved it. Hm. I don't know if that's actually going to make you feel better or worse, come to think of it.

I caught the last post and thought it was great... the only thing it possibly lacked was pictures of Gabby, because those pics are always awesome. What a cutie!

Well, at least the engorged boob talk was funny. Funny to me, anyway. You could have been stuck with a bunch of prudes who were like "Why is she always talking about her boobs?" But no. You were with us. And when you exclaimed "FEEL HOW HARD THE BOBS ARE!" we felt how hard the bobs was. Because we're just that awesome.

That was a good post, I'm glad for RSS.

Plus you have a more interesting blog, and you take better pictures and I bet your camera didn't cost 2K. I don't know that for sure, I'm just guessing.

Some people have it, some don't. You have it.

We're all voting for you. Kick ass, mommy.

Could some of you guys not criticize Dooce in order to support Yvonne? There's absolutely nothing wrong with Dooce, but if you have a preference for Yvonne, then you're obviously in the right place.

And, yesterday I voted for Yvonne; today, I voted for Suburban Bliss. She has an expensive camera (but not 2k, so it's okay to like her) with a big lense. It's hot. Heh.

Oh, and I liked the Vegas post too. I hope you visited one of our local Starbucks and thought of me.

I've done like FlippO. Yesterday I voted for you, although today i voted for Dooce. I like you both, and i simply couldnt choose. Tomorrow, i'm not sure who i will vote for. I love reading you for some reasons, and her for others. I just depends on which personality I am today. lol

oh- and good god, who the hell buys a 2k camera?
I can find so much more I need other than a 2k camera. There is just so much more my poor ass can do with 2k ! But then again, who the hell am I to judge?

Oh- and you dont have all the advertisements on your site that some other sites do. I like that. But i would still read you if you did.

Um, I came here thru Autumn. I have never heard of this voting thing..I dont care for Dooce..I am just sayin!!

And I dont vote, everytime I do the damn repulicans win anyway:)

I've never commented here before, but I've been reading for a while. Keep posting a little link about the blog awards. It's a good remnder for me to go and vote. :)

About Y
My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
