Transcript

In case anyone wants to know what my 13th reason fucking why is, I have my baby here who will not be put down. He won't go in his bouncer, he won't lay down, he won't go in his snuggle me, he won't go in a carrier. He only wants to be carried like this, okay? I'm already overstimulated because we are going on 12 hours of solo parenting and my husband's at work and now he's at a work dinner, drinking with his friends, the Uber. And then this just fucking happened. My fucking dog threw up all over the fucking rug. So if literally anybody wants a dog, he's fucking free.
