Big Pimpin'

Pimping out some more of my fellow collaborators for the new book so you'll have an idea just how funny these chicks are! First up, The Dose of Reality with Lisa and Ashley taking a page RIGHT out of my book with their discussion of the state of their households in For the Love Of God...Use the Back Door.

Next up is the hilarious Bad Parenting Moments, as she discusses the utter joy (NOT) of dining out with small children in Check, please!

One of my very good friends Tracy at Momaical just blows me away every time I read her blog and since I can't decide which of these two is the funniest, I'm going to let YOU, dear Snarklings, be the judge. First up is her new commercial, destined to win a Clio, Shut the Fucupcakes. And, IMO, equally as hilarious, is her description of her trip to the gynecologist with her two daughter in tow. Here is Gynecology Gone Wild!

Here is a gem from Jen at People I Want to Punch in the Throat. Her Valentine to her one true love......Tina Fey, in For My Secret Valentine. One of these days Jen will get to meet her secret girl crush and I hope I'm there to witness it!

Last pimpout of the evening is one from Random Handprints who is on a tirade about the number of bake sales at her kids' school. I leave you with Bake Sale Mania Makes Me a Maniac.

I hope you love these ladies and find them as funny as I do!!

Want a good laugh? Got some free time? Read on...

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. Please read 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.

Check out The Epistolarians and read my letter to Nicki Minaj

To quote my friend Tracy at Momaical, "The Epistolarians is a group of kick-ass women writers, who are letting the world know how they think, one letter at a time."  In that vein, I've written a letter to Nicki Minaj.

You can read the full letter at The Epistolarians. Then you can tell me what you think. Do you like her? Hate her? Think she's a big old bowl of nut sauce? Let me know what you think.

Lovely!
