![]() I come home and I’m like, “Have to get some work done. Yet… I still find myself- Last night I’d come home from getting the kids from school and everybody was in, and-by the way-my fail will explain what happened prior to this story I’m about to tell you. We’ve also worked through this a lot as partners. Now, this was-I feel like a little understandable at the very beginning. I am tired of being stuck in this place where the time I’d like to spend on myself or my job is still at the mercy of others. I’m gonna have a little breakdown at the beginning of the show. How am I? Thank you for asking! I’m… seriously fucking tired, guys. ![]() Just reminding me what an awesome community this is. And I thank all of you for reaching out to show your support and love to Theresa. I’m still wandering about-I might have to start filling the house with animals until I can figure out what to do next. And… I just want to say again-thank you to Theresa. Now as you all know, last week on the show, Theresa announced that they were stepping away from the show. ![]() This week I really just wanna thank Theresa. Heavy electric guitar and driving percussion overlaid with “Ohh, oh-oh, oh-oh” and “Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey” lyrics. Speaking of love, it’s time for thank-you’s. So… I think you’re doing an incredible job filling your house with love. And… there are worse things to fill the void with in my opinion. Ducks? Geckos, snakes-these are wonderful, wonderful animals. And- Ding, ding, ding! When you open Google and the very first thing that comes up is “Pasadena Humane” without typing anything in, then… maybe I’ve looked too many times! But I just think the menagerie of animals that you have at your house-ducks? When you said at the end, “Yesterday I sent an email about-” And in my mind I was like, “Pig! Pig! Say pig! Pig! Pig! Please be a pig! Please be a pig!” Puppy? Also… a viable choice. I am searching all the time-whenever I start searching the Humane Society? I know that that is like a placeholder for something else I should probably deal with. Alright? And I think the same is true for adults. And you have something to cuddle at the end of the day, too! First off, I think it’s actually really helpful to remind all of us that like… having pets, animals, in the house can actually be a real gift in terms of emotional support for kids. My kids have something to talk to and cuddle at the end of the day. So we have an old dog and we have a rabbit and we have a gecko and a snake and two ducks and a chicken and a fish-Īnd I may or may not have just sent an email about getting a new puppy, and I think maybe I’m trying to fill some kind of void with creatures. ![]() And when you’re differently-wired and you’re not sure if people are going to like you or think you’re weird or be your friend today but not tomorrow, it helps to have an animal that you can count on. And my answer to the answer is getting longer and longer because my children-I have four children who are all differently-wired. I’ve been noticing a pattern that there’s more and more creatures living in my house. Because… I don’t… I don’t have anyone else to talk to, I guess. I’m starting to wonder if I have a problem, because every time you ask a guest who lives in their house, I answer the question in my own head for myself. This week on One Bad Mother-we may need a reminder that parenting is a farce. Due to the pandemic, we bring you One Bad Mother straight from our homes-including such interruptions as: children! Animal noises! And more! So let’s all get a little closer while we have to be so far apart.
