So, my ex's niece had her second baby today (I won't go back over all that drama, but some of you may remember) and there are a bunch of pics on facebook... and the baby really is not cute. I mean, the majority of newborns aren't, but Bella really isn't. (I feel the same way about my brother's ex-wife's baby boy? I mean, obvsly I'm going to be biased toward my own family, but I generally think most babies are cute! I'm not sure how to feel when I come across a not cute one.)

Speaking of babies, something that was said today made me think of this and now I can't get it out of my head: Losing a baby is hard. Burying your child is something I wouldn't wish on anyone; it's not something anyone should ever have to go through. But being there with Anthony in the days following Landon's death, and every time I've talked to him since, I'm convinced that it's even harder to have to stand there and watch someone else go through it. Maybe it's because it's been 13 years and my memory of that time wasn't real clear to begin with, but seriously, watching Anthony have to suffer is breaking my heart.

anywho. Happier things! And random other things! Which, as you probably could guess, means links!

I still have a pic up in a tab that's of [livejournal.com profile] jackiejunkies baby from NYE. It's adorable. Also from NYE, or around that time, I have this pic of Johnny Weir and his husband (do any of yall watch Food Network? B/c Johnny is going to be on some celebrity cooking challenge show or something? I'm looking forward to it being hilarious.) and this one of Bden & PWentz.

Travis Thrasher shared this small special gift with his followers. (It's a story. Also, don't worry if you don't know who Travis is, but just for reference, he cowrote Paper Angels with Jimmy Wayne. Which may not mean anything to you either.)
