Happy Wednesday, pals!
You’ll actually have to travel to get to my post today, but I promise it’s easy AND worth it. The mah-velous Meredith, whose writing is featured in I Just Want to Pee Alone (YAY Meredith!!!), is hosting a series called I’m a Mom of the Year and my post is up today. All you have to do is click HERE to read it!
BUT WAIT! Before you go, I wanted to invite you to be a part of MY new series: Oversharing: I Ain’t Scarrred. If you’ve been reading my crazy for a while, you know all about my penchant for oversharing. If you’re new here (WELCOME!), you can catch up and learn more than you ever cared to:
My dad had crabs but not really
I said the “C” word at a school assembly
My kid crapped in some napkins
Because so many of you have expressed interest in being a part of the fun, so I present to you:
The goal is laughter and the limits are few, so I hope you’ll consider joining the ranks of my crazy and submitting your story.
Caution: this series is Rated R mostly because it’s REALLY awesome, but it also contains some-may-find-offensive language and scenarios. I won’t edit you to death, but please know that I will not accept anything along the lines of racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. Bigotry ain’t cool, ya’ll.
So, whaddya say?! Wanna play with me? Okay, I realize how that sounds. Let’s move on…
If you’re game, send your Oversharing to whencrazymeetsexhaustion{at}gmail{dot}com and let’s get this ball rolling?
Do you love all of the sports imagery I just created for you? You’re welcome.
Steph, thanks so much for your post over at my place today–it is so great! And now I’m off to think of something I can get busy oversharing on!
Thank YOU!!!!!!
And I so hope you’ll (over)share!!!
I’m heading over to read your post now, and will definitely overshare on your site! Just have to kick this cold out of our house and figure out how to get my child to nap again. :/
Take your time, Mama! A germ-free house is more important than humiliated yourself in the name of humor
P.S. I know it’s “bad,” but we said screw it to the cool-mist humidifyers and bought warm mist; SUCH a difference! If The Kid is still confined to a crib there’s minimal risk. Or, make the bathroom into a sauna: run all of the hot water and breathe in the steam. Dr. Stephanie signing off…
Sounds like fun, I love to over share.
I totally love this idea!! I just emailed you a link to a post I did about my first brazilian wax. The email came from my hotmail account and gmail tends to hate hotmail so if you don’t see it, check your spam. If it isn’t there either can you reply here and I’ll try sending it from my gmail account? Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up, Vicky!
I’ll give this one some thought Stephanie! I don’t really consider myself an oversharer but my husband begs to differ. I don’t know how to draw the line between honesty and oversharing. The other day I was telling someone a puking story from when I was 4 years old. I had eaten spaghetti and had apparently not chewed a single noodle. They all came up whole so it was a pretty traumatic puking experience trying to get all those noodles out. I thought this was a perfectly acceptable story to tell….the person I was telling it to did not agree!
Well that person is NO fun!!
I have the perfect story and although I’m a little shy about sharing it because others may find it, the fact is that, thanks to my teenager, everyone around here knows about it anyway!! Can’t wait to read these!!
