This is a MeMe. First write a nauseatingly perky paragraph about your life, the type of paragraph you see in alumni newsletters. Then write a franker, funnier one. I was tagged by Swistle, go read her paragraphs too!
Devan & D are pleased to announce they have 2 wonderful, smart little boys! They live in Mytown, Alabama and D loves his engineering job, but not as much as spending time with his family. They are happily married and feel so blessed to have their lovely family. Devan stays home with the boys, and cherishes it every moment. She feels so blessed to have the opportunity to spend each day with her kids.
Devan & D are the parents of two kids who don't sleep! They live in the south, far, far from family and HELP and D spends hours upon hours at work, leaving Devan at home with the kids. They are married and try to keep their annoyance with each other under control, at least while the kids are awake. Devan stays home with the boys, and wonders frequently if she would get more respect if she earned a paycheck.
If you read this, consider yourself tagged.

"At least while the kids are awake!" He he. Good for you. Musn't slip into full-blown, Roseanne-style bitching in front of the kids just yet.
This was funny! You did a good job with this!
AWESOME.
That's terrific. I love the first paragraph. You really captured that "Everything's wonderful!" attitude of alumni mags.
*applause*
I feel the same way.
Hmmm, after reading what you guys have done, I don't think I took my first paragraph seriously enough.
Hmmmmmm.
How did I not know you lived in Alabama? Or is my placenta brain malfunctioning once again!?
Great post!
That's funny. The contrast of the two is great.
