Let’s get the obvious out of the way—I did not post Golden Bachelor recaps.
If it makes you feel better, I stopped watching! It wasn’t like I was watching and not sharing my thoughts, I just dropped yet another one of my proverbial balls. Between my actual job, my feral child and the second baby you all didn’t know about when you initially signed up for this Substack, I just couldn’t keep up…which is really saying something considering I think I made two posts.
So here I am, entering 2024 with a new pledge—I guarantee nothing. You might hear from me two days in a row or it could take three weeks, but I will not commit to anything concrete. Which, while on brand, might be the worst marketing strategy ever publicly presented. But hey, at least I’m honest!
I have some ideas of what I’d like to ramble about. Headed into my second postpartum journey, I feel that this might present a good outlet for my wild thoughts and baby rants (although if I’m being honest, my toddler is probably going to star in most my rants—we had our first tantrum this week, it was jarring). And I also know that my initial plan for this space, a space for longer forum tangents that aren’t conducive to the small fonts of IG, still holds appeal. But to commit to recapping some show or giving you a weekly play-by-play of my inner thoughts isn’t realistic nor does it sound that interesting.
So…stick around if you want! Behold the chaos of an inconsistent social media influencer(idk if that’s what I am?) trying to diversify their portfolio while also trying to combat their own boredom, express their creativity in a not-so original way and feed their need to overshare. Hopefully there are some nuggets of laughter or relatability
you can take away from all this. Or not. Again, no guarantees.
January 11, 2024: Pre-Baby #2 Thoughts
In no particular order, these are the thoughts I’m having in the weeks leading up to The Sequel.
What are Aquarius’ like? I don’t hear a lot about Aquarius’ which feels like…a good thing?
Will these baby be born during the VPR premiere or RHOSLC reunion episodes? Neither work with my schedule
Are my genes stronger this time or will this one also be “Bill’s twin”? (fine with that, just curious if my purposes here is just being the vessel)
Will Coco bite the baby?
Girl names…I am second guessing all our girl names, so much so that the other day I suggested Kirby Carey. I have since decided Kirby and Coco is a little to Mario Cart for me
Will postpartum be harder this time because it’s winter or easier because it’s winter and winter already sucks?
Did I use up all my easy baby credit on Coco…because I feel like she was a really easy baby and lightening doesn’t hit the same
uterusplace twiceI need Coco’s toys to go somewhere other than where they are—they are too visible for my restless mind
Will I get fluid in my lungs like my last labor? If no, can they still give me the nice diuretic that helped remove the fluid and also a large amount of weight within the first 10 days?
Gypsy Rose needs to go home, make some sour dough and delete social media. I wish her well, privately. Give her a PEOPLE exclusive once she and the hubby procreate if we need to but fame and fortune?? It’s too much. It’s bothering me
