I just watched the 2 "question and answer" videos I put up in the last post.
I am so embarrassed over how fucking dorky I am!!!
... Once (and still) Infertile, but still Schnarky as hell. This blog is dedicated to the daily ramblings from the mind of Nancy. It isn't about anything profound in the grand scheme of things, but it ~is~ about things in my life, schnarkiness always included. I have a second blog, listed in my profile, but the blogs will continue to remain separate.
"I'm aiming for heaven, but I'll probably wind up down in hell"
About Me
- nancy
- I am a 39 year old woman. I am the mother of two beautiful daughters and a handsome son. I am a career woman. As for my TTC world, it certainly doesn't seem like I am "infertile", but I fought for my pregnancies and my TTC/IF history is on the sidebar. I have two blogs, which are both listed in my profile. One focuses on my daily life - including IF, TTC, pregnancy, delivery and even some "children mentioned" posts. The second blog is ~soley~ posts directly about being the mother to my three children.

Haha. I laughed at you a bit too! I think you're funny though. I absolutly hate being on camera so there is no way in hell I would have done that! I really hope everything goes well w/your biopsy. Good lord do you need some good luck.
Don't be so hard on yourself. They were great and very entertaining!
I loved the videos! It's neat to put a voice to a face.
I would never in a million years film myself... I'm already picky enough with pictures.
Dork is good.
First off, I LOVE the videos. NOT boring at all!! I like watching those better than reading an entry!
Second, you are the fucking coolest. Seriously. No really. No, REALLY though. You are! LOL! You have such a beautiful personality that doesn't shine through your writing. And you are such a GIRL! lol! Not what I expected!!
Anyways, it was nice to see Nancy! oh and hear Nancy!! I love your PJ's..no wonder you get more dick than me! (oopps did i just say that?) Your boobs are just like..HELLO, there. I wish mine were as nice and well, plump as yours haha!!
I have question. If you could pack up and move, taking your job along with you- where would you live? Somewhere you have never lived before!
1 more thing, I want more videos with Karl and the girls!! :)
I loved the videos! I wish everyone would post videos now so we can see how everyone actually is in real life.
Morgan - haha - thank you! Yeah, I'm pretty girlie, I know. And I like that through these videos, you can tell I'm not actually just a bitch, like so many people think I am. (my boobs - totally worth the $4,895 I spent on em, huh?)
Do you want me to answer you here or on video?
What a neat idea! Thanks for sharing.
Jo
I already commented on your other post but, seriously, they weren't boring :)
I have a new question for you.
Will there be any difference in the way you tell your girls and Karl about sex?
Which also begs the question, how will you tell your children about sex?
love it!
oh, and i'm going to be obsessed daily post IUI :)
i don't think you're a B, i think you're clever, and it's refreshing reading someone's post who writes what they want no matter the topic!
Yeah, after my SIL had them little cells lasered off they haven't come back. :)
I love the videos! I've actually been brewing a post about regrets or lack thereof.
Oooh! I'm dying to know the answers to the sex questions!
Nancy, I love the videos!! It is so much fun to get a better idea of who you are. I swear - we should all meet somewhere in the middle of the United States!
Question: If you could spend one day with anyone, who would it be and why?
You are kinda dorky :) but we love you anyway.
I think everyone that blogs should do this...
I know you stole it from Eden...but can I steal it from you?
I loved it Nancy! I'll have to check into doing one also!
OMGosh girl! Your crazy!!!! I was laughin my ass off!!! Hayden was diggin your girls tho--better watch out!!! LMAO!!!
Too funny! Not like I had pictured you to sound and stuff!! LOL!
It was fun to watch.
I TOTALLY felt like I was at a sleepover at Nancy's house. Anyone else?
You are hilarious.
I love you.
Nice boobies!
Thank you for answering all questions. I am sated. But I still want you to twitter.
Omg cool pillowcases! SO funny hearing you say my name, fucking surreal!
And, you are tough.
And, fucking hilarious.
Omg so funny THANK YOU. More please.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
It was cool to hear your voice Nancy, not what I expected. I'm so Jealous you got to see Fugazi in concert, that must have been awesome!
I laughed too, but not at you, you are a brave woman and it's nice to see your personality in action. You are a Movie Star! and adorable.
I've about put myself on my blog on video before, but it was playing my guitar singing (how dorky is that) but DF came home in the middle of my recording. Maybe some day.
Nancy...you are the coolest! I think you would be so much fun to hang out with!
Yeah...you're not a dork. But if you were, that's okay with me since I'm one too, LOL!
Here is fine w/ me!
I now understand the "gateway drug" concept. Your blog is the gateway to your videos and we are all now hooked on the harder drug. You must keep making videos. (Hey, it's not my fault. You started it:) SMOOCHES!!!
Here from ICLW.
What great videos! I don't think you look the slightest bit dorky. :-) I love the tats, too. I hope I'll someday get the courage to get one myself.
Your voice was totally different than your voice in my imagination. Much "softer" that I had you in my mind.
You are brave to do vlogging. I don't think I could. I'm way too nerdy.
I've had a lot of reading and video watching to catch up on so just caught them now...
I think you're pretty darn hot chickie! I would never have the guts to do that - mostly cos we don't own a video camera ;)
Thinking of you today as you've probably got the results of your biopsy already.
