But if you're the one looking for "sex toys cheese balls" you probably shouldn't say anything.

I'm curious.

How did you find my blog?

I'd love to know how people have found their way here. (ESPECIALLY if you're one of the MANY people who found it looking for "Pooping during childbirth.")

I actually found you by Googling "childbirth during pooping".

Posted by: K'vitsh at January 9, 2006 01:56 PM

I found you at one of Buzzstuff's online drinking parties.

I found you through a comment you left at Sarcastic Journalist.

Posted by: Kell at January 9, 2006 02:15 PM

Boring answer: Oh, I've been reading your blog for about a hundred years. I think I originally found it through mindy's.

Posted by: christina at January 9, 2006 02:16 PM

I honestly can remember exactly how I found you...I'm guessing it was through BlogBlogBaby....

Posted by: gc at January 9, 2006 02:17 PM

I found you through girl :)

Posted by: reese at January 9, 2006 02:20 PM

I went to yours from a link Ninakaye

Posted by: ashley at January 9, 2006 02:21 PM

I was looking for "hot latina pregnant twat." cute, eh? that was when it was still aged and confused, and i was still a little, ummm. "frustrated."

this is one of those questions i'll be sure never to ask.

Posted by: Sarah at January 9, 2006 02:25 PM

I'm not sure, but I think it was from a comment left on another blog. Now I'm here at least once a day!

Posted by: Tammy at January 9, 2006 02:27 PM

I don't remember. I'm just very thankful that I found you, because you are a fantastically great person and I adore you. I started to say one of Genuine's Bashes but I know it was before that.

Posted by: Mamacita at January 9, 2006 02:28 PM

I'm pretty sure it was a link from Joelle at Tenth Muse.

Posted by: Melissa at January 9, 2006 02:32 PM

Probably the Purple goddess in froggy pajamas. link....or I was looking for another blogger form La...

Posted by: jamie at January 9, 2006 02:35 PM

I found you through Nancy- In Nancy's Book- about 4 years ago. She no longer blogs, as do a lot of people that I started reading way back then. Glad you're still around.

Posted by: Michelle at January 9, 2006 02:36 PM

Found it from Echo's blogroll and might i add that yours is one of the funniest blogs i've ever read.

Posted by: Nina at January 9, 2006 02:38 PM

Pretty sure I linked it through your friend Melly, whom I linked from Sarah Brown, whom I linked through Sarah Hatter, the first blog I ever read. Yours is in my favorites now!

Posted by: lindsay at January 9, 2006 02:47 PM

Gosh...I don't know! I followed links from blogs to blogs...I have no idea! And I agree - it is one of the funniest I read!

Posted by: Lisa at January 9, 2006 02:47 PM

I just found you recently, but I have definately gotten hooked. I come check out the blog almost daily. I think I found your blog from a comment on someone else's blog, but I really can't remember (must be from all the "partying" I did when I was younger!)

Posted by: Diva*Licious at January 9, 2006 02:47 PM

So far, mostly through other blogs. Awesome.

I was hoping for at least one "I was searching for tittymilk!" but who's going to admit that, really.

I know I would, but then again, I talk my vagina, so, not everyone is as free with the information as I am. ;-)

But hey, it's still early. There's still hope!

Posted by: Y at January 9, 2006 02:56 PM

I haven't found you, yet. But, I'll let you know when I do.

Posted by: Busy Mom at January 9, 2006 02:59 PM

I was looking for a recipe for "hot stuffed enchilada" and whatya know, here I am. Now you can't get me to leave....

Posted by: ben at January 9, 2006 03:02 PM

Ah, stuffed enchiladas. I KNEW that was you!

Posted by: Y at January 9, 2006 03:03 PM

I can't tell you what I ate for dinner last night, let alone how I found something back in 2003.

So I say I found it through your "other" site you know, the porn one?

Posted by: Sarcastic Journalist at January 9, 2006 03:13 PM

Whatever, SJ. I know you remember every detail and that you actually wrote a story called "The Day I found Y" but you're too embarassed to tell me because then I'll know how much you really do love me.

And you're afraid that will make you vulnerable.

It's ok. I know.

Posted by: Y at January 9, 2006 03:23 PM

Umm... I cant remember which one, but I had clicked a link on another blog one day.

Posted by: Jenna at January 9, 2006 03:28 PM

i found you thru miss melly :)

Posted by: ratty at January 9, 2006 04:18 PM

I found you via Rori :)

Posted by: Lucky at January 9, 2006 04:31 PM

my ex started me on reading "words for snow" at her old blog... and i beleive i found you in her links. you've become one of my favorite blog writers. you're awesome!!

Posted by: Jessica at January 9, 2006 05:01 PM

From Macca's That's Incredicrap! blog

Posted by: Randi at January 9, 2006 05:14 PM

Hmm, I did a search for "rubbing bushes". Just kidding.
I found you through different blogs, and now I read you daily. Damn you're addicting.

Posted by: mr.c at January 9, 2006 05:16 PM

I found you through a funny comment you made at Ben's. And remembered to come back here through another witty comment you made at Philip's.

Posted by: Katie at January 9, 2006 05:28 PM

Found it through Robyn many many years ago! :)

Posted by: Stacey at January 9, 2006 05:40 PM

You are on my sister's blogroll - which is weird because she isn't a mom and honestly, your blog doesn't seem like something she'd read! But I love you so that's that.

Hey guess what! Alison finally graduated and got her sappy ass outta that house today. Good Riddance!!

Posted by: danelle at January 9, 2006 05:42 PM

I found you through Mindy's blog.

Hooked ever since!

Posted by: Vixen at January 9, 2006 06:05 PM

I have *NO* idea how I found your blog, but I've been reading you every day (assuming you POST every day!) for about a year.

Posted by: RisibleGirl at January 9, 2006 06:08 PM

I found you when I was clicking through people's blogrolls, a long time ago. (okay, like 2 or 3 years, but it seems like forever now.)

Posted by: NinaKaye at January 9, 2006 06:09 PM

Damn, Y. mikey asked this same question not long ago and I couldn't remember for him either. I have been reading you for so long, that I have no idea. I probably saw you on someone's blogroll.

Posted by: Girl at January 9, 2006 07:00 PM

I don't remember how I found you but boy am I glad I did!

Posted by: Valerie at January 9, 2006 07:23 PM

I found it through http://wordsforsnow.org. Don't know how I found them, though. :)

Posted by: Jenny at January 9, 2006 07:33 PM

I gotcha through the Web Blog Awards. Very happy to have stumbled this way.

Posted by: gtc at January 9, 2006 08:08 PM

Delurking to say I found you while searching for the term "pighunter". ;) I wish it were that exciting. It was really just a link from another blog.

Posted by: J at January 9, 2006 08:27 PM

I found you thru Busymom and think you are both fabulous. I have been reading 'Joy Unexpected' for about 6 months (i dont have a blog yet) and always have a laugh....and sometimes a cry, thank you for such an honest, REAL blog

Posted by: kaz at January 9, 2006 08:34 PM

Through browsing the designs at Moxie... it may have been their beautiful design that got me here, but it's your beautiful writing (and baby girl!) that keeps me here! :-)

Posted by: stephanie at January 9, 2006 08:57 PM

I've been reading you for a couple years, you've been on my blogroll forever. I think I originally found you through Joelle.

Posted by: Mia at January 9, 2006 09:48 PM

I can't remember - it was through a comment you made on someone's website, and I thought O how funny and traced you back...so glad I did!

Posted by: daysgoby at January 9, 2006 10:02 PM

I think it was through a link from another blog; now I refresh like a mad woman looking for updates.

Keep it up, you are hilarious!

Posted by: Hope at January 9, 2006 11:18 PM

i'm sure i found you through another blog as well. don't remember which one, but back then it took me to "agedandconfused" and i got hooked :)

Posted by: kim at January 10, 2006 01:40 AM

Hmm. It was either Tenth-Muse or Moxie. I was with you at the old url! I think we first bonded (one sided-ly) over Jay Mohr. I used to wish I had a man that looked like that. Then I did. Then I didn't and was better off.... A story for another time!

Anywho, since then we've had a virtual iced, soy, white, mocha or two... mine with an add shot.

Posted by: daniel at January 10, 2006 01:41 AM

I followed a link on some elses blog. Can't remember whose now, sorry!

Posted by: Mellissa at January 10, 2006 02:44 AM

An unknown force drove me in here... either that or I followed a link from wildscorpy's blog... I always confuse the two.

Posted by: CNL at January 10, 2006 02:50 AM

I found you through Bren.

Posted by: Oh at January 10, 2006 05:27 AM

DeLurking for the first time.

I've been reading you for about 2 years.

Found you through BlogExplosion.

Thanks for the laughs.

You are fantastic!

Posted by: tlc6767 at January 10, 2006 05:40 AM

I found you through a comment you left on another blog....... just cant remember which blog that was.

Its been too long for me to remember.
I love your blog though, and read every day!

Posted by: Heatherg at January 10, 2006 05:47 AM

Googling for the lyrics of "Something Smells" by accustic bluesmen Cephes and Wiggins. Never found the diddlydang lyrics, but it goes something like:
What is that smelllin' like fish here Momma?
Pootie, if you really want to know.
Smells like sardines, ain't in no can, same thing you
promised to that other man,
What is that smelllin' like fish here Momma,
Pootie, if you really want to know.

Have no idea what it matched on your blog . . . .

Posted by: Dale at January 10, 2006 06:24 AM

I, too, found you through someone else's blog, probably about six months ago, when I discovered personal blogs altogether. Sad I know, but the only blog I'd really ever seen were those political commentator blogs, with tons of ads, and boring reads. Then I found you, and you just keep me coming back for more! Love your writing, sense of humor, and true expression of self.

Posted by: Aims at January 10, 2006 07:00 AM

I found you through Mieke's blog. She was discussing a political post (can anyone say BUSH)!

Posted by: kristal at January 10, 2006 07:17 AM

Linked through John Boy. First time here.

Posted by: schmims at January 10, 2006 07:26 AM

I found you thru Melly a long time ago (before Matt even) and decided to keep you since you are so cute and loveable.

Posted by: Lisa at January 10, 2006 07:28 AM

I have no idea, either someone's blogroll or iparenting? It definitely wasn't pooping during childbirth. I didn't even give birth vaginally and I did that...ack

Posted by: Jerri Ann at January 10, 2006 07:41 AM

I also found you from someone else's blog but can't remember whose. Every time I read, I can't wait til the next post. Keep 'em coming!

Posted by: ishouldbeworking at January 10, 2006 08:52 AM

You know, I don't really remember how I found you. haha. I know I started off reading at your old address. I always enjoy your posts, so I keep coming back.

Posted by: Shannon at January 10, 2006 09:03 AM

I found you through a post on the Brides.com message boards. Someone posted a link in a thread titled something like "greatest pictures ever" with a link to the post of you and Tony's wedding pictures. The pictures were so great that I checked back the next day to see if you'd written more, then I just sort of checked back again and again. My wedding has come and gone but those pictures will last forever. I hope mine hold up as well as yours did :)

Thanks for the good reads, you got me addicted now!

Posted by: Chrissylas at January 10, 2006 09:05 AM

Yours was actually one of the first blogs I ever read. A friend of mine told me about his blog, who had a link to Melly's blog and she linked to your blog when Gabby was born. And once I saw those pictures, I was hooked ;)

Posted by: Catharina at January 10, 2006 09:36 AM

I found you from a link on another blog. So glad I did because your awesome!! Thanks for giving us all a peace of mind!

Posted by: Crystal at January 10, 2006 10:09 AM

Not sure How I found you...I was blogrolling one day, but I sure do enjoy reading all you have to say! So funny!

Posted by: Xangelle at January 10, 2006 10:18 AM

I did a search for "latina blogs", and yours came up. I've been hooked ever since.

Posted by: laurie at January 10, 2006 10:23 AM

umm... you told me?

Posted by: girl at January 10, 2006 11:10 AM

I found you through snazzykat.com

Posted by: Sarsie at January 10, 2006 11:20 AM

a very very very long time ago when i was pregnant with my daughter i guess 3yrs or more ago
and i found it through another one of the bogs we both read :)
cant stop reading it!

Posted by: beth at January 10, 2006 11:26 AM

I don't member how I found you anymore. I've been reading you FOREVER though. I'll admit. I'm one of those lurker people. Read everyday. Rarely comment.

Love you though !!!!!

Posted by: LC at January 10, 2006 11:46 AM

I found you through the weblog awards page - and voted daily for you...b/c, tho dooce rocks, you have more of The Boinking...and you make me laugh so loud I have to fake a coughing attack whenever a coworker walks past my office door. They all think I have chronic pneumonia. ;)

Posted by: Jess at January 10, 2006 11:47 AM

I can't remember how I found you, but I remember when. It was about January of 2003. In fact, I miss your old template. The one with Snoop and Ty on it! :-)

Posted by: Laura at January 10, 2006 11:49 AM

did you have another blog before this one? I think I found that first, then it shut down. I found you again from a comment you left, on Zoot's or Buzz's blog, during the pres. election.

Posted by: Kris at January 10, 2006 02:55 PM

Through THE AITCH I believe!

Posted by: Kelly at January 10, 2006 03:24 PM

I found you through a link on Missy's blog (yellowjeepgirl).

Posted by: Jen at January 10, 2006 05:18 PM

Umm through mr. & ms. yates (picklejuice) - long time ago!

Posted by: Nicole at January 10, 2006 05:45 PM


I guess no one wants to admit to googling "Black mom belt whippings" or "becoming latina in 10 easy steps!"

Posted by: Y at January 10, 2006 05:49 PM

I googled "pagina" and bam there you were. Or was it that swinger's site that you advertised on....or maybe it was through the infamous Sarcastic Journalist. yeah, maybe thats it.

Posted by: Debbie at January 10, 2006 06:30 PM

through Melly's site ages ago.. but I don't remember how I found Melly's site! doh

Posted by: shy me at January 10, 2006 06:38 PM

I found you on a blogroll at CFM.

Posted by: Chana at January 10, 2006 07:45 PM

honestly, I don't remember how I found your blog. but I can say, I was one of your first readers! my first comment was on your wha, third post ever? something like that?

for some reason, i have the urge to go sniff some dead ants now...

Posted by: mikey at January 11, 2006 12:26 AM

I'm "De-Lurking" myself. I have NO idea how I found your blog, but girl you crack me up. I love reading! Have a great week! :)

Posted by: Salena at January 11, 2006 10:13 AM

*waving* - and envoius that you're in CA and I'm hear in NC. As a Northern Cali girl I enjoy reading people "from home".

I found you via Sarcastic Journalist -

Posted by: Mit_Moi at January 11, 2006 10:53 AM

and obviously I'm an uneducated Californian who doesn't know the difference between "Here" this place, and "Hear" with my ear! *sigh*

Posted by: Mit_Moi at January 11, 2006 10:56 AM

I've been reading your blog for awhile, maybe about a year, since my daughter showed it to me. She linked to your blog after reading a blog from someone in Montreal called Sandee, with breast cancer. I love your blog, you make me laugh often! And sometimes cry.

Posted by: Marjorie in Canada at January 11, 2006 03:39 PM

Honestly I can't remember but more than likely a link from someone fabulous.
All I know is I am glad I did! :)

Posted by: Kay at January 11, 2006 09:05 PM

I just found you...on someone else's site. You are hella funny. I am adding you to my link list...I think you will be my daily laugh.

Oh, and when I read that you too have a son named Ethan... I thought a latin woman with a son named Ethan. Perfect.

Posted by: Pookie at January 16, 2006 02:42 PM

Found you through Mental Notes. I enjoy your blog- you are so funny!

Remember me?

(you may use HTML tags for style)


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".
