Shearwater “Breaking The Yearlings”

I always forget how much I like Shearwater’s music. Thankfully, Sub Pop has brought it back to my attention and they’ve added “Breaking The Yearlings” to the beginning of their 2012 free download compilation. Stream below, download here.

Shearwater will be coming to Lincoln Hall with Sharon Van Etten (OMG!!!) for two dates in February. Here’s to hoping I can make both if not one of these nights.

Toddlers & Tiaras Forever

If any of you think your name will be coming out of my mouth as anything other than “Honey Boo Boo Child” from now on, you are sadly mistaken.

If Your Baby Wears Eyeshadow It Probably Needs A Social Worker

I’m not sure if Facebook is trying to tell me something or if recruiters in the social work field have felt as though they’ve exhausted all other other marketing options, but this ad keeps popping up when I log in:

So…I’m confused. Did this little girl just watch Black Swan and now she needs someone to talk to? Has she been traumatized by too many seasons of America’s Next Top Model? Did she kill another little girl in the background of this picture or are those just some random legs? I need answers but I’m not willing to click on their ad for fear of that little girl stealing my soul.

This Three Year Old Is Sexy And He Knows It

I’d like to file a formal complaint with all of the parents of every child I’ve ever babysat (including my own parents because I had to babysit my siblings constantly). None of the children I took under my wing** had the talent of kids today. I mean, take a look at Marek – he’s three and can sing at least a third of the words to LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know It”.

Don’t even get me started on the dance moves! At the :50 mark he was like, I am too hot to handle, I need to throw myself onto the ground! Destiny’s Child can’t handle this bootyliciousness.

**ate whatever junk food they had at their house
