Amy's Sayings: Fighting a baby

Sunday, July 29, 2012. And he replied coolly that he would work very hard to make sure that didn't happen.) When Mimi says that her life was "a happening," she means that she never calculated its events or outcomes. They just happened. Aron and I essentially said that you don't impose a schedule on a baby; a baby imposes a schedule on you. A baby is a whole universe of influences. Convinced that he has ever truly had a night terror, and no one I've mentioned his "night terrors" to has been even slightly.

Amy's Sayings: April 2012
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 29, 2012. Aron and I both had dreams last night that I was pregnant. Actually, my dream was of us. Maybe evolutionary instincts are duping me, or maybe, as I'm more inclined to believe, Graham is uniquely. Wonderful and these other kids are only averagely. Three adjectives that describe me are. My greatest strengths are. My most obvious weaknesses are. What I want most in the world is. If given the gift of a day with no responsibilities, I would. So clearly there is little of value here, an...

Amy's Sayings: February 2012
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 23, 2012. Storying down memory Laney. There's a story called "The Snack Station" about a college-aged girl whose hair is cut off by an evil, overly made-up snack station vendor; the vendor gets her just desserts when, after having her locks raped, the victim uses the same pair of stealing-scissors to stab a hole in to the vendor's hand. There's more to it than that, but I don't know how to explain it. So when I have time, I'm going to keep trying. That's the moral of the stroll. The ni...

Amy's Sayings: The events leading to the least successful yard sale in the history of yards
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-events-leading-to-least-successful.html
Saturday, August 11, 2012. The events leading to the least successful yard sale in the history of yards. Doing a five-minute stand-up routine has become a goal of mine:. That way. Traffic? The fact that going to school in Atlanta would require moving. So Atlanta seems daunting, but when I'm in Athens I'm not even in the mood to consider. Leaving Graham for twenty-four hours was extremely difficult—about once an hour I experienced panicky spells:. I love to indulge. If I have a philosophical affiliati...

Amy's Sayings: December 2012
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 22, 2012. Good morning, bad night. I found a lot to love about life this morning after not finding much to love about life last night. I went to bed early- I didn't go to sleep early, just early to bed. In the comfort of pajamas and warm sheets I lied there thinking about all the things that piss me off and all the awesome things I'll never be. Why did you scoff? I asked. "I didn't," he lied again. "What are you thinking? A few minutes passed. I decided I needed to defend my desire...

Amy's Sayings: The inventory of easiness
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012/07/the-inventory-of-easiness.html
Thursday, July 19, 2012. The inventory of easiness. Graham at eight and a half months. 8212;so between Graham's first and third month, Aron and I watched eight movies. It was strange to both of us to realize that. We had both felt certain that we hadn't seen a movie since I was pregnant, but in fact we've seen several. During our video store visit (which, before making the new release discovery, we thought was Graham's first time in a video rental store), we rented Carnage. We were able to watch Carnage.

Monday, July 30, 2012. Graham turned nine months old today, and we celebrated by taking a naked nap. Sunday, July 29, 2012. And he replied coolly that he would work very hard to make sure that didn't happen.) When Mimi says that her life was "a happening," she means that she never calculated its events or outcomes. They just happened. Aron and I essentially said that you don't impose a schedule on a baby; a baby imposes a schedule on you. A baby is a whole universe of influences. A baby to nap? It means ...

Amy's Sayings: May 2012
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Time magazine probably didn't start, but it certainly seems to have some interest in perpetuating, the Mom Wars. The cover from two weeks ago featured a mother breastfeeding her four-year-old and asked its mother-readers, "Are You Mom Enough? It was generally regarded as a shocking cover, but I have an ostensibly unrelated axiom that might actually apply to the Time cover: Any girl who thinks she's pretty isn't. Any magazine cover that thinks it's shocking isn't? It's easy for me n...

Amy's Sayings: June 2012
http://amylaneyhall.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 30, 2012. I think, therefore I spam. I was already half wondering about the floormat ad, so I clicked "Why this ad? And was greeted with this eerie explanation: "These ads are based on emails from your mailbox." Spies! Gmail has been reading the emails I write to myself about car accessories. Some are erotic, part of a series I call 50 Shades of, Hey, Where'd You Get that Clutch? Buick (yes, BUICK! Thursday, June 28, 2012. I believe in sweetness and light.". I once heard that it's a trick ...
