A Year in Review

A 2004 Meme. Thanks. (I’d link to the specific entry and possibly do a trackback, but my firewall up and decided in the last five seconds to block her pretty site. Dammit.) 1. What did you do in 2004 that you’d never done before? Started a blog. 2. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? Yes, I did keep a major one. And yes, I plan on making more. Hopefully keeping them all. Especially the one about “procreating”.... Read More

The AMAZING Jackholes

So. Why arent you watching The Amazing Race? You know it won an Emmy, right? Its not like regular “Reality TV”…it is an honest to god RACE. You should check it out. Well – last nights episode was what I like to call “A Recap Episode which makes Jonathan look even MORE like an asshole (was that possible?) than he did before”. And it worked. MAN! Dude has ISSUES. But – Kris and Jon? I am SOOO in love with them! And all the extras last night... Read More

Turkey, Dressing, Casseroles…Oh My!

Is it wrong that I spend all day thinking about eating the Christmas Dinner leftovers for dinner? I’m not sure if it’s because I was so FREAKIN’ proud of how perfect my dinner turned out, or if it’s because the food was just THAT DAMN GOOD. Either way – I can think of nothing better right now than my FOURTH serving of Christmas Dinner waiting for me in the fridge at home. And at least three or four more meals after that one…at least.  Read More

A Pause in Blog-Laziness for a Reveal

Well. One of the many sites I am behind on is officially done. Fraulein N wanted a site that was like a comic book, and I hope she is pleased with the results. Go tell her, “Hi!” and that she’d BETTER post more often now that she has a brand new pretty site. Like I should talk about posting more often… Oh. And in case you didnt notice? I switched from the Christmas Skin. If you would like to KEEP the Christmas Spirit Alive a little longer – click... Read More

Things Keeping Me From Posting a REAL Entry

“Why Zoot Has Not Updated In 48 Hours” I ate too much this weekend. I got out of bed at 6am this morning. I leave for work at 6:30 am. You do the math. I had a weird dream about being caught in a flood caused by a tidal wave with Stace and LilZoot. This has TOTALLY freaked me out considering I did not know about the Tsunami News until I got into work this morning. I’m scared of myself. Christmas was so WONDERFUL I don’t want to post about it until I can... Read More

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
