@seymour: I remember you telling me about White Teeth - which I still need to watch. I know, I'm awful! >.< Regardless, I enjoyed your outtake very much. When Mr. Hero started talking about fish, I expected Jerome to comment on how it's a food he doesn't particularly like. XD michelle: It's good that Michelle has always been the responsible type, and even better that she passed this trait onto Willow and Jordan.

*Willow is vlogging, with a newborn Reverie.* Willow: Hey guys. Yes, I just had Reverie Katherine. She was born at 4:03 am. She is 8 pounds 10 ounces 21 inches long and beautiful. Yes, I had a second degree tear, but I only needed a few stitches. I had her without any pain medications, and she latched on like a pro. Vince is in heaven over our little girl. ******* Samantha: I'm on a cocktail of medications to treat my PCOS and reactive hypoglycemia. It sucks, but so does ruptured ovarian cysts and low blood sugar.

I should also tell you that White Teeth is also a book, which you can find at your local library. The White Teeth miniseries is on Netflix, just so you know.

What were Michelle's two other jobs during her summers off from college? Were they both at the hotel?

michelle: I'm glad that Willow's labor wasn't as bad as it could have been. I commend her for getting through it without any pain medication - that could not have been easy! I feel for Sam. I've had cysts before, though thankfully it wasn't anything serious. I should also tell you that White Teeth is also a book, which you can find at your local library. The White Teeth miniseries is on Netflix, just so you know. I have a comic to return to the library in a few weeks, so I'll look for White Teeth then. I searched for the series on Netflix Stream, but I guess it must only be available in DVD format. Ah, well. I'll figure it out. ^^

Maureen: I'm 27, I have my masters, I'm married, and I have a kid. Why do I still get mistaken for a high school student? Is it because I'm 5'3"? Is it because of my piercings and tattoos? Is it my long hair? I don't know. ******* Michelle: When I was 27 weeks pregnant with Jordan, I had the 1 hour glucose tolerance test done to screen for gestational diabetes. I felt like I was going to puke during the hour I waited between the drinking of the beverage from hell and from when the nurse drew my blood.

Maureen is Michelle's half-Greek, half-Irish friend, isn't she? The one that's married to the half-Japanese guy?

Yep. Patrick isn't that tall, either. He's 5'7".

Poor Maureen. It's annoying to have graduated high school so long ago, and have strangers think you're still that age. The same thing used to happen to me, until I was twenty-nine or so.
The "beverage from hell" line is great. xD Is the glucose tolerance test something all women expecting or planning to have children have done?

The "beverage from hell" line is great. xD Is the glucose tolerance test something all women expecting or planning to have children have done? The glucose tolerance test is screening for gestational diabetes, and it's usually done between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy, though it might be done earlier if the woman might be at higher risk for gestational diabetes. A couple of my friends who have kids got a higher than normal result on the one hour test and had to come back to do the three hour test. ******* *Michelle is ranting about the Google+ and YouTube comment integration* Michelle: Google. What the ickle? I like Google+ and I like YouTube, but not together. First of all, I have been getting so much spam since the comment integration started. I have spammers posting links to porn sites and to sites that give computers viruses. I feel bad for the people who accidentally click the links and a porn site pops up or their computer gets infected. I've also had gag accounts of Barrack Obama and Hitler and Jesus Christ post ASCII "art" of genitalia and swastikas. Since there is no character limit, commenters can post offensive salsa like that. I've had commenters post entire screenplays and plays. Who wants to read walls of text? Not me. And blocking their accounts is futile, because they can make new accounts. And I don't have the power to block the spammers' IP addresses. I liked the old commenting system enough, as do the majority of people. There was less spam, ASCII genitalia and swastikas, and less virus salsa. Google, please bring back the old style commenting system. No more integrating comments and Google+.

Thank you for explaining that in a way that's so easy to understand, Michelle. I hope your friends got better results when they took the three-hour test. *** Goodness, but I had no idea that Google+ and YouTube comment integration was that bad. I do hope you haven't had the misfortune of running into any of the things Michelle did. If you have, then you have my sympathies. I'm not a frequent poster on YouTube, but when I do have something to say, the most annoying thing I've run into is being given the option to use my full name. If I had any desire to do that, I would have made it my Gmail address. Get it together, YouTube. XD

^^God, yes! The new system has made me cry with frustration on more than one occasion. I don't know how to use Google+.

*November 20, 2013. Michelle is vlogging from Australia* Michelle: Hey guys! We've made it to Sydney! I'm at the beach right now, with Jordan and Hugo. I wanted to wait until I wasn't jet lagged anymore to make a video that wasn't pre-recorded. It's going to be 30C, which is 86F, today so that's why we're at the beach. I'm rocking the bikini and the belly button piercing 10 months post-partum. And yes, I've had a few Australian guys hit on me, even though my husband and baby are right there. I ******* Michelle: I'm going to be making a ton of videos while in Australia. Hugo's aunt's house has beautiful acoustics and a piano, so I'll be making singing videos.

I hate the changes made to Youtube. Everything was just fine before. Just as I finally get used to the old changes, the new ones come. Don't fix what isn't broken!
