At work this week, I needed a photo of twins, preferably cranky ones, and I needed it fast. But as it was for our blog, we didn't need it so bad I'd actually pay for an image.
Enter inspiration, my capture of Hugo's stranger anxiety (which lasted a week) and my paltry Photoshop skills...
I'm really proud of the blog post because I took a current event story -- that the earth may have a twin -- and got quotes from four writers who are also all parents to twins. Three of them are good friends of mine and one just jumped out at me as someone I'd love to get a quote from (Darrin Strauss). Luckily, all came through. I'm proud of it, small and ephemeral as it is. Check it out here.
And yes, I thought of Jane over at the excellent Baby Squared. I was scrambling to get her email to no avail and began to feel a bit like a stalker in the process. Even though I needed quotes fast, I thought of leaving a comment on her blog to contact me, but I was too fried to figure out how to concisley explain why I needed her without sounding crazy. i.e. "Jane....email me...I've a dumb blog and you need to be in it."
Jane, if you're reading this, and if I need a twin 'spert in the future, I'm just going to let my freak flag fly and dare to sound nuts in your comments.
Later Internet. I'll post a new vid soon. Need to fancy this next one up a bit.
Oh and all readers should leave a comment on this post. Why? I dunno really, it'd just be nice. I see the stats so I know someone other than my mother is reading this and oodles are lurking. So leave a fake name if you want, I dont care.
Ciao 4 now Web dolls!
xoxo,
Susie
