Memories Are Forever (Especially Once Digitized)April 28, 2009
I've been writing about parenting for, oh, awhile now. Many of those pieces predate the www. So it's always fun/funny when they spring to new life online seeming as if I still have (sigh!) (of both regret and relief!) a 4-y-o and a 2-y-o. A reader (a dad) just wrote to thank me for a piece he saw on CNN.com: "What I Learned About My Husband in Bed." As of last night, it was highlighted on the cnn home page under "Latest News," which was especially funny -- and mortifying, too. I wrote it a decade ago for Parenting, about being on bedrest (with #3 of the four kids). As I recall, I sold the piece on the basis of the titillating title, before I'd fleshed out the idea! That's no doubt what got it placed on the cnn home page, come to think of it. Just thought I'd set the record straight in case anybody was thinking I was having yet ANOTHER baby! |
