1. I do not actually drink vodka. I’m not allergic or anything, I just don’t love it. Not like I’ve portrayed myself as a vodka guzzler or anything, but I thought you should know.
2. Except if it’s in a drink that contains other life-saving ingredients. Like tonic.
3. I own zero pairs of stilettos.
4. Wait, was this list supposed to be Huge Motherhood in NYC Resolutions? No? What a relief!
5. The strikeout, which appears to be a beloved blogging technique drives me Miss Daisy fucking crazy. No likey.
6. I also don’t like expressions like “no likey” “nom nom” and “ktxbi”. Thanks to Kirsten for reminding me about some of these. Ok, I just noticed that Kirsten uses the strikeout technique that I so cruelly mocked above. Will this affect our friendship? Stay tuned!
7. When I talk to Mama and Papa in Russian, I do indeed call them Mama and Papa, when I talk about them to my friends in English, I refer to them as “my mother and my father.”
8. My daughter calls my mother “Lady Olga” because her first name is, indeed, Olga, and because “Lady Olga” sounds like “Lady Gaga”.
9. Last month, gay friend John told me that he will be hosting the Blow Job Olympics this winter and I never blogged about it and it’s like an issue between us now. But this is a family blog.
10. I worry that I don’t write enough serious posts and that I am tired of calling Husbandrinka Husbandrinka.
11. This is not a revelation, but thank you. Thank you for reading and leaving comments or sending me emails. You make blogging fun for me.
