Change of a Name

Donna Martin Graduates

I changed the name of my blog.  I don't want to be too similar to the sites like Chic Mommy or Scary Mommy.  I'm not a swacker (swagger jacker).  There's so many fucking mom blogs out there, who can keep them all straight anyway.  I'm not going to change my previous postings though.  An It Mommy is no joke, that information is all legit.  I'm still an It Mommy.  But, as any It Mommy would do, she sets herself apart from the crowd and changes the name of the game.  And her blog.


I thought of the purpose I set out to start this blog.  I just never quite fit in on any of the other parenting sites.  I'm from a different era of parenting. (And no, I'm not from that failure era of parents who's children are self entitled irresponsible undergrads and highschoolers.)  My teen years were in the 90's and my kids were born in the 2k's.  I'm a 2kMom.  Moms like me watched the generation before us fuck it up and raise worthless brats (we know, cuz we were their babysitters).  We understand the importance of 90210 and "Donna Martin Graduates", not One Tree Hill where teens get married in high school.  That shit is disfunctional.

A 2kMom is old enough to know better, but young enough to still be in the know. The Kardashians are a staple of Sunday night, not Desparate Housewives.  A 2kMom can quote movies like "Wedding Crashers", and 'die' over Rachel Zoe.  But, 2kMom's are soccer moms, do homework, scrounge for easy weeknight recipes, and wipe butts just like ever other mom.  2kMom's posts on message boards often stir up the old birds' feathers.  But, there is always another mom or two out there just like us who would concur that the Biebs new hairdo is way better than the side swoop (the side swoop is so out) while Stuffy Mommy responded with 'the Kardashians are such a waste'.  Uh, hello?  Did you see that amazing dress Kim wore?  Obviously not, you were too busy scrapbooking.

So, whatever, the name of my blog is 2kMomDotCom.  Because DotCom means it's legit.  And it's fucking ironic.  This isn't a "Mom Blog" chronicling the day in the life of yet another stay at home mom, their dim witted husband, and ridiculous kids in 'snarky' tone in hopes people will find them charming.  Hahaha, yes, it was so cute that little Bobby drew all over the walls and you screamed for a glass of wine, hahaha.

Consider this blog a guide to life.  A little piece of information to relate to.  And if you don't relate, there are a bajillion 'snarky' written mom blogs you can read.  Snarky is a stupid word.  Please don't consider my writing to be snarky, because it is not.  It's straight forward and I mean every single word of it.  This is the "He's Just Not That Into You" of blogging.
