Freestyling My Way Through Life

I'm Allison and I'm the hot mom at Mommy and Me. Welcome to my tumblr, where I turn procrastination in to an art form.

I’m not a fan.

[notoriousabz]

Not a fan at all.

I don't know what "Do werk!" was supposed to mean.

Puzzled.

Wearing My Flowered Apron

and mixing homemade muffins (and a fruit crisp) with one hand, talking on the phone to the NY Times about an insert with the other. 

Is there anything I can't do?

it’s just coincidental.

Working on a hearing.

I heard an absolutely startling fact. It was one that I was aware of but had never heard put so succinctly, in such awful black and white, before.

Artists are the one group of people where the more successful they become, the less likely they are to have health insurance.

This post makes me want to cry  - both from frustration and relief. Frustration because my husband and I, both artists, have been uninsured for the last 3.5 years, as has our daughter, and relief that someone is saying it. Did you know that the children of artists are also punished? Cayce doesn't qualify for KidCare because we choose to be unemployed by choosing to be self employed (incidentally, women in Florida have to purchase separate maternity plans if they intend to have children, because despite paying three times as much as men for a standard plan, maternity care is not included)(Florida just loves women and children). 

In July, Scott broke his wrist and tore ligaments in his elbow. You know what we did about that? Taped him up with supplies from Walgreens and taught him to type and use his camera with the other hand until he healed (or we assumed he did). 

Something needs to change.

Maybe I'm a little punchy but this made me laugh.

Jailhouse Fingers McGee.

I don’t like the sound of that at all.

Mine is Fat Money Allison. I'm going to call that a really weird coincidence and just walk away from this post.

Normally Castro and I aren't exactly on the same page, and yet... “The selection of a Republican candidate for the presidency of this globalized and expansive empire is — and I mean this seriously — the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been.”

When I was four I had a red Luke Skywalker toothbrush. He was my first crush. He was soon followed by my second crush, the brown guy from CHiPs (who never had his likeness stamped on a toothbrush)(did he?)(I'm going to feel cheated if he did). I like diversity. And apparently, heroes (of a sort).
