Three brief bits of goodness (this is arguable, of course, but I think they're good (not great, mind you, but good.)) written by me:

1) A column in the local (almost) daily about the Diva and her Blankie. (Yes, it bears a striking resemblance to a previous Austinmama column. Deal.)

2) A piece in the new KnitLit 3 anthology, which bears a striking resemblance to a Knitty column.

3) An Austinmama column about the terrifying realization that I have two children. This is actual new content but also contains three errors -- two are glaring, one probably only bothers me. Sigh. Maybe I should just stick to recycling things.

In other news, my hair is falling out in great clumps. I know it is my hair because it is long, mostly gray and very curly. I also know it is my hair because I can run my hands across my scalp and come away with enough to stuff a pillow. The same thing happened three months after the Diva's birth. It is now three months after the Dude's birth, so you can do the math. Still, I'm starting to worry that I won't have any hair left. I'm also getting really tired of having to vacuum frequently, so that we don't get tangled in all of the hair and starve to death because we can't reach the phone to call for help. Between me and the cats, we've got enough excess hair to warm the nation.
