Do you have Cheerios in your underwear?

This is very last minute, but I was at Children's Book World today (buying birthday presents of course -- for kids not my own) and saw that L.A. Parent magazine is soliciting 1,000 word essays by mothers who have something to say about the hilarious absurdity that is parenthood. The deadline is Friday, Feb. 15! So if you have a funny story to tell, go to http://losangeles.parenthood.com to enter the contest. The winner will get to read with Momcelebs -- could be a way to start that stay-at-home career.
