No need to knock. I want you to come in here with me. In the Powder Room is one of my most favorite sites. I love funny women. I love funny, sometimes inappropriate women. I love funny, sometimes inappropriate women who dish about funny, inappropriate things.
Today my essay, Dear Smug Mom-to-Be is featured on the site!
BAM!
My friends recently had a baby and the new dad scolded me saying I didn’t appropriately warn them about how hard it was going to be. Umm, I beg to differ. If newborns could talk they’d all be suing me for slander. I have made it my mission to tell new parents exactly how shitty babies can be. (Literally, yes, but mostly figuratively.) Maybe I wasn’t harsh enough. Maybe I’m softening in my old age. Maybe my own, dear, awesome-sauce toddler is making me forget how dark those dark days were.
NO!
NEVER FORGET!
And that is exactly why I wrote this essay. So I would NEVER FORGET.
Read it and weep, parents-to-be. You’ve been warned.
Well you are totally in the right place, sister, because funny, sometimes inappropriate women who dish about funny, inappropriate things are our tribe! WELCOME TO THE STALLS! We are thrilled to have you, Shelly.
I found my people!! Seriously, Leslie, you have no idea (or maybe you do) how many much-needed laughs you all provided in those DARK DAYS. NEVER FORGET!
