Working Mom

A friend asked me to describe the whole working Mom thing, and I wrote this:

Basically, there's no free space in my life.

Hmmmmmm

Baby Brain

If it's all about eating for two while you're pregnant, it becomes all about thinking for two after the birth. I was never good at thinking for one. Somewhere in my bag, underneath a burp towel, I've got a BlackBerry to keep me tethered to work. I've also got an iTouch somewhere to help me stay connected to my personal email. But when you need to keep track of baby diapers, wipes, feedings, changings, etc., no digital crutch will replace those brain cells that used to remember EVERYTHING.

Anyone ever notice that when you drop the "M" in mother, it's simply "other."
