Would it be terribly bitchy of me if ...

So I recently started getting along a little better with my co-workers (just a little; now I don't hate them completely, but I still don't want to be anyone's BFF, either; I blame the me-getting-more-involved-at-work thing). And I've also found out that, of the two recent parents in my department, one of them has a baby blog. A fucking baby blog.

Yeah, when I found out about it (and then subsequently viewed it by pure chance), it made me want to throw up a little in my mouth. I mean, yeah, oh, nevermind, there's no excuse for a baby blog. And aren't baby blogs akin to cat (or any other pet) blogging? I mean, they have the same cognitive skills at that point, don't they? And all the posts are just photos with whatever cutesy thing they happened to do that day.

Man, it made me want to start a not-baby blog (think along the lines of a I'm-not-having-a-baby shower). But what would even go in that type of a blog? Do I get a baby seat, strap in a huge bottle of whiskey, and then take a picture of it and write how cute it is? Do I get a stroller and take a 24-pack of Lone Star to the park? Do I slap a bottle of vodka around and say that's what they get for staying up past their bedtime? How best would I mock a baby blog? And should I actually do this?

You know we love the little bitchiness that is the Mando.
