In today's blog post, I'm going to share with you some of the funniest and most awesome people I don't know in person. How about that? I wish I knew them, and I do hope, one day, to meet a great many of them. But for now, I'll just have to admire them from afar. In no particular order:
Kim from
The Fordeville Diaries. Kim's
letter from her dog, Senor, threatening legal action cracked me up. Today, Kim shares with us how she shoves her 20 weeks-pregnant body into maternity spanks. Enjoy
My Cirque du Soleil Audition
Tina from
There Must Be A Third Option. My first look at Tina's blog got me hooked when I saw her tagline that says: ...because I can't find any gypsies to buy my kids, and I'm too tired to run away from home. I used to say ALL THE TIME that I was going to sell my kids to the gypsies. Tina's son Red has a penchant for not wearing pants. And fire trucks. And giraffes. He's quite the little charmer.

Nonsensical Sense and Illogical Logic: Why it is Tough Raising Redheads
Tracy from
Momaical. Tracy cracks me up. A lot. She started our newest venture,
The Epistolarians and is just a full of awesome ideas and is simply hilarious. One of my favorite posts of Tracy's is
Shut the Fucupcakes. And her post about her
trip to the gyno with her darling children in tow is just too funny not to share. So funny, in fact, that it's featured in
No Laughing Allowed, the new blog collection put out by
A Life Well Blogged.
Joy from
Evil Joy Speaks. Joy and I have become fast friends. She's got 4 kids, a husband, and 2 pups. She lives in the Arctic Circle known as Wisconsin and has really taken to
snowboarding. She posts about her life and
her kids and her hubby and she never disappoints.
Michelle from
You're My Favorite Today. Michelle has an
obsession fascination really likes Scott Baio and was so excited when he
favorited one of her tweets she nearly
peed exploded lost her mind. She and I have similar tastes in men (I loved Chachi more than Joanie did, just sayin') as you can see from her post on
George Clooney. She never fails to make me laugh.
Nicole at
Ninja Mom Blog. Nicole opens her blog every month for the
Character Assassination Carousel, and if you remember my blog post
We're Going On A Bear Hunt, you'll remember that it was featured on Nicole's blog. She's generous, warm and freaking hysterical. Nicole was recently featured in the In-faux-mercial,
Wine-Not? One of my faves, for sure.
Paige at
Paige Kellerman. Paige recently had a baby,
Doc Holiday to add to her posse,
Butch and Sundance. She is pee-myself funny and I love seeing a new post from her in my inbox. Her
breakup letter to Oreos is heart-wrenchingly hysterical.
Jen at
People I Want To Punch In The Throat. Jen is sarcastic, snarky and funny as shit.
Her Valentine to Tina Fey is side-splittingly funny. Her review of
Magic Mike was spot on. And her post on
ultrasound parties just cracked me up.
There are a megafuck ton of great bloggers out there. These are just a handful. To see more (Jesus how much time to you HAVE anyway??) go check out
My Favorite Blogs page.
Stay snarky, my friends.
Self-promotion is not something I'm all that comfortable with, but in this case, I'm going to make an exception. A bunch of amazing bloggers are all competing for a coveted spot as one of the Top 25 Funny Moms 2013. I am not looking to even be in the top 10, as I don't believe myself to be anywhere near as talented as the likes of The Bearded Iris, Divine Secrets of a Domestic Diva, Holdin Holden, I Want a Dumpster Baby or People I Want To Punch In The Throat. They are all amazing ladies and I read them all the time. What I would LOVE to achieve is to be in the final 25 when the voting ends on February 13th. So I'm posting this link and asking that everyone who reads Snarkfest please click the link and vote for Snarkfest to try to move me into the Top 25. Right now I'm at number 30 and I'm in the amazing company of Ninja Mom Blog, Somewhat Sane Mom and Frugalista Blog. I want us ALL to be in the top 25.
