There are lots of little injustices to pregnancy that no one ever tells you about beforehand. Like the fact that perfect strangers think touching your stomach is somehow okay. Or the fact that people ask “how are YOU?” as though there’s a greater level of significance to how you feel now that you’re growing a […]
New Layout
Playing around with some new layouts for lauraandbrandon.com. Thought we’d just got to a WordPress install for the main page. Maybe even combine the other blogs into this one main page. With Logan on the way we’ll probably need a way to get pictures and video out in a simple way and hopefully this will […]
Best typo ever
So, I’ve been absent from my blog for a while yet again. In my own defense, I couldn’t log into it because of my own technical ineptitude. Nonetheless, this was worth waiting for. Anyone who reads this blog and/or knows me at all knows my very low tolerance for grammatical errors. I’ve been floored by […]
The 80s Team Site Revision
Check out the the80steam.com. The new site revisions are up and I think it is an improvement over the old one.
Kids in church
So I am many days delayed on this, but I’ll still vent. You people who let your children bring their whole freaking toy box with them to church (and you know who you are), need to lay up off. Please, I beg you, consider the other people sitting around you. Case in point: a few […]
Here’s a little song I wrote…
…you might want to sing it note for note. Okay so there is a joke in there somewhere. Here is song I put together a while ago. I haven’t had time until now to put any polish on it. It is still a work in progress, but take a listen and tell me what you […]

The difference in males v. females
why is it that when I have had too much to drink, I am somehow still capable of putting laundry in the washing machine, unloading the dishwasher, reloading the dishwasher, hand washing everything that didn’t fit in the dishwasher, wiping down the countertops, reorganizing the fridge, taking out the trash, moving laundry to the dryer, […]
Getting ready for company…
Brandon and I have spent the last few weeks semi-preparing for the family to come to our house over New Year’s weekend. I’ve been organizing stuff here and there, baking like crazy, and Brandon succumbed to my begging and painted the guest bedroom. But everything up until this week has been kind of mundane stuff […]
Running again
Brandon fixed the treadmill a few weeks ago. It’s been broken since about this time last year, so I had a few somewhat reasonable excuse not to run…. “it’s too dark when I get home” or “it’s too cold in the morning.” Since he fixed it, though, my only excuse was the one that the […]
