Shocked & Appalled

Random rants

Why is it that Michael Lewis and his editors think we care about his thoughts on having children? I'm a first time parent, and I have all these observations about how life is suddenly different, and how whole new worlds of meaning have opened up for me, but I'm not so self-absorbed to think that I'm the first person to whom this has ever ocurred. And this is Lewis' second kid, I mean, come on, he must have read all this stuff the first time. I keep clicking back, hoping that maybe he'll be funny, or say something interesting but it's all just "hey, being a new parent makes you tired!" or "I'm filled with doubt over how to juggle family and work!" Wow, Michael, you may just get a MacArthur for that one.
