we're not boring!

Sometime ago my friend Joyce, currently a stay-at-home mommy as well, and I were reeling over an accusation from an acquaintance that mommies are boring.

"We're not boring!" I said, trying to convince us both. "We can talk about lots of things!"

"Like what?"

"Night-weaning! Yeah, we're good on that."

I'd like to talk about night-weaning, but I'm afraid, I'm too tired to hold up my end of the conversation.

wtf is "night-weaning" anyway? it sounds like a description of a conservative elmer fudd.

H, Is there any doubt that Elmer was a conservative Republican? Don't you imagine that Karl Rove watched those cartoons and thought to himself, "OOOO that wascaly wabbit! I'D Get him!", and that is what Iraq is REALLY all about, a pudgy bald inner child trying to wreak his revenge on godless heathens who seem like they might be happy?

night-weaning = the fine art of training a baby to give up breastfeeding during the middle of the night.

My sympathies to the anonymous, sleepless poster!
