Babble!

Boo! It's me again. Guess what?! I got a great new job! I'm covering parenting news (just follow the smell of diapers) for Babble's Strollerderby blog! You can check out everything I've written so far right here. Look, I even have a bio and everything! I'm very proud to be in the company of the women on that page. If you're not a fellow parent but you know some annoying people with kids, feel free to direct them to my stuff! Thanks!
I'm excited! Can you tell?!

New vidz and shizz!

Oh hai. I have been a busy beaver! I'm busy making a dam out of online music videos. Here you go!
