GUEST POST: We Interrupt The Scheduled Programming

I am Not The Momma Damomma.

I am The Food Whore.

The Crazy Lady on the Left Coast who’s blog decided to up and freeze and make my life miserable. I’ve tried 4500 (no joke) different times to log into my account in the last week each time thinking -maybe – this would be my lucky day.

I don’t think I need to tell you the copious amounts of liquor I’ve gone through.

I’ve said before that I am ridiculously stupid when it comes to this internet game, and that was confirmed this weekend when I could not get any sort of help from the Movable Type people. Well, I shouldn’t say they have not helped me. They’ve been very helpfull telling me that they cannot help me via e-mail and have given me 45 links which I have followed and none of which make any sort of sense to me.

So I am sort of – stuck. And I am starting to think that it has something to do with the e-mail I received from a those people who offered to do my website and make my breasts the size of large mellons. Neither has happened – coincidence? I don’t think so.

At any rate, for the 6 of you still reading my blog I wanted to let you know that I am alive and working on getting this mess figured out, even if I have to go through Blogger to make it happen.

I just snorted – I am all tough and sounding off like I know what the Hell I am doing.

I don’t. But I’ve asked for help. My dear friend offered up her blog space for me to share this message. Ok, maybe offered up is a strong word. I basically said, “I am posting, ok?” Because I am a vicious beast who preys on tired pregnant women. (Thanks, my friend. I hope those oatmeal cookies were good.) And I hope that it can all be figure out nicely. Because my local supplier is running out of lemons.

Thanks for your time.

DaMomma – thank you my friend. I put this under the “Barf” category. Because that is what I feel like doing every time I sit down and try to figure this out.

Mary – Butterfly Kisses

Renny – Seriously, spatulas are not weapons.

  • Oooh! I do read and I have wondered! Thanks for the heads up! And I’m kind of dying to know what kind of camera you decided on!

  • FW, you should get a twitter account if you don’t already have one. That might help for those blogging blackouts that happen occasionally. :)

  • FW – Though I rarely, and I mean RARELY comment on your blog, I DO read it whenever I see a new post on there… so I guess that makes your readership shoot up to 7!!! WOO HOO! I hope you figure out the problem soon and those moveable type people quit being asses… I miss your stories! Hang in there!

  • I was wondering whatn was up with you! Thanks for letting us know. Good luck!

  • I read it too, FW and I don’t comment often because your commenters…well…they are fierce and scare me. But I read.

    But you scared me. Last time you posted on DaMomma’s blog she’d had a Renny. I didn’t think Eden was quite done yet, so I was freaking out.

  • I had to read this post five times before fully understanding what this meant. I was thinking, “Why is Damomma writing this, and stealing cookies from other pregnant women?”
    Damomma- I was looking at your ultrasound pictures, and I was reminded about my little boys! I have three little boys. All under the age of 6. I understand what you are about to go through. I read one of your entries, it was dedicated to Eden. I had the same worries when I was going to have my soon to be second youngest son, David. I was scared I would not show him as much love as the others, that he would think I loved the others more. Don’t worry, as a mother, you always make room for another one! I found out, about the same time as you that I was due with my forth child. Actually, I believe we are due in the same week! I am having a little girl also! My little Sarah-Beth. Good luck in the years to come.
    Much love,
    A dedicated damomma reader

  • A cross-reader, who is glad to know that the FW is alive and kicking and kicking.
    Best wishes, FW.
    And also to you DaMomma.

  • So glad to hear that there are computer issues and not that you have abandoned us FW!
    I’m looking forward to your next post.

  • Glad to see the FoodWhore is alive! I have been worried. I link to DaMomma through the FoodWhore and have missed her wit of late!

  • This is a great idea, FW! You can just go guest posting around the web. You could do Haole Girl next!

  • FW, my wife (yet another Elizabeth) and I are relieved to know your absence is not due to a debilitating fall, TG. If you decide you need help with your site I may have some contacts for you that can help. “Never, Never, Never give up” – Winston Churchill – who I’ll bet, must have been a great drinking buddy.

  • Dedicated Reader — I made an edit to the post to make it obvious that it is the Food Whore writing and not me. Thanks for pointing out the lack of clarity. Good luck with little Sarah-Beth. Getting close now!

    Everyone else — I totally agree that the Internet gets a fraction colder and more desolate when the Whore is on sabbatical. Let’s hope she gets things straightened out, but in the meantime, I’m certainly honored to have her here.

  • thanks FW, I have been wondering where you got to.

  • Yeah Food Whore – great to see you here. Thanks for stopping by! 2 of my favs together, like peanut butter and chocolate….mmm hungry now…

  • I am so happy to see that The Foodwhore is still around! Foodwhore-I can’t WAIT to see food photos from you and your new camera. I’ve been reading you for years, and while I enjoy your witty writing, I think photos will add another great dimension to the blog. I also hope you don’t slip on something and break the camera. I hear lemon drops help. Good luck on fixing the site!

    I am even happier to see that two of my favorite bloggers are friends. Thanks for letting The Foodwhore share your blog, DaMomma!

  • Thanks, Liz, for letting TFW post. Thank, TFW, for letting your fans (yes, I found you through Liz’s blog!) know you are alive and kicking. If you need some help from a semi-code-monkey-type, ask Liz for my e-mail….she should have it.

  • Good to hear from you, Food Whore. I’m a dedicated reader of both blogs and have missed your razor wit!

  • Glad we’ll be hearing more! Thanks for the update!

  • Good to see Food Whore back ! Kept checking back on her blog for new posts. Look forward to reading her and Damomma’s blog !

  • Thank you, everyone!

    I am in the process of trying to get it all sorted out. But for now it is up and running in a very plain and non-obtrusive way.

    Totally not me at all.. :o )

  • Miss FW, I was about ready to climb on my broom and come looking for you.

  • Hmmm, I use spatulas as weapons all the time. I call them pancake flippers, of course, because I’m talking to men and many of them have no idea what I mean by a spatula:)

    And I LOVE teh Food Whore! And it’s not just because she introduced me to Damomma and Haoule Girl and Lemon drops…..

  • Oh thank goodness. I love you’re blog and I’ve been wondering wtf was going on with the lack of posts lately. Seriously – I need you and DaMomma in order to resist bitch-slapping the people I work with on a daily basis. :)

  • Lumpy has been lost without her favorite whore.

  • Thanks for the update FW. I have been missing your rapier wit and was quite afraid you had finally succumbed to your stairs. Lemon Drops all around (virgin for Liz, of course) and here’ s hoping your site is fixed, post haste.
