What does it mean to be a Crazy Hip Blog Mama?
This is my first writing prompt for Crazy Hip Blog Mamas. And I think I might mess it up since I am not Hip, and so new to the Blog part that I really don’t even understand why I’m doing this. And? I don’t like writing prompts, but I think I should do this one and maybe y’all will even decide to become a member of the CHBMs. Ew! Nevermind. I will always write it out from now on. (Ew!)
But here goes anyway, and if this stinks it’s ok because i’m only doing 2 such entries a month. The rest of the time I’ll be talking the important stuff like who vomited where, etc, etc.
It means I come here and write of my kids’ craziness. It means I don’t hesitate to tell you of my own craziness. (As if I could conceal it.) It’s more like I tell you about my own ‘un-hip-ness’ than anything else. But isn’t that the beauty of it? That you can totally admit you sang "Ice Ice Baby" and made your kid royally freak out on you? That’s so un-hip it’s glorious!
I’m new to Blog Land, and I adore it. I did not anticipate friends, and yet here you are. Blog friends. Crazy, hip or un-hip friends. Some that are mamas and some that also blog.
(Really wanna know why i joined Crazy Hip Blog Mamas? I saw it on someone’s site that was way cooler than me – can’t remember who. I just figured if she was doing it then I was, too. And? I really don’t know who that was, and I wonder at how impressionable I am for a reasonably confident adult woman to be so easily swayed by a little HTML in a sidebar of a blog. Scary.)
I love you.

How much fun is that! Can I play, too? I’m not ‘hip’ either.

Hmm. I’m a too-many-desserts-on-my-hips blog mama. Maybe we should start our own club?

Let’s all play and we can be un-hip together. Birds of a feather flock together -or so they say. ;D

And I was just thinking YOUR site was way cooler than MINE!
I just joined and sent in a submission, too, after seeing this on your blog.

The very definition of hip is singing Ice Ice Baby while your son takes his first steps and catching the whole thing on video tape. Oh wait that wasn’t you, that was me. Okay, talking about vomit and squirting poo, that is way crazier and hipper than anything I could ever think to do!

I was about to welcome you to the World O’ Blog but judging from your blogroll, you’re already well-entrenched! I found chbm the same way – someone way cooler than me. so cool in fact, that I don’t even remember who it was. Maybe it was you?

Um HELLO?! Look at your blog, girl.
Very hip.

Well I know I don’t fit. I’m not hip, not cool, and not even a mama. (do Papas count?)
Well anyhow I’m not one of those either.
BTW shared your blog with a friend who is adding it to her next email newsletter. Expect some traffic as they have a huge readership. I know they are all gonna love it here.

Shallow…no, hip…who cares, right on…you are. Almost 53 mother of two teenage daughters and a 6 year old son…who will probably never be hip except what protrudes below the waist, nor cool…menaupause will do that to you…
