Excerpt:

Say “bye-bye” to randomness and everything that comes with it.

Knock, knock! Who’s there? Randomness! Ha-ha, no you’re not. You don’t exist anymore. The closest thing we had to randomness was “randomly” grabbing extra clothes without making sure they matched before taking off to the store. Which is a big deal; especially since I made sure that my girl matched in every way. Her outfit totally matched, her bib matched that outfit and her extra bib matched, because we all knew she was going to spit-up at least once. I did randomly hide pieces of candy in the diaper bag though. However, there was no randomness with me eating said pieces of candy; I ate those bad boys whenever I needed to grab something out of the bag, or when I had to put something back into the bag; sometimes when something fell from the bag. Ok, basically I ate candy constantly. Because I love candy; mostly sour candy and chocolate. And if I’m feeling really fancy, chocolate covered sour anything. And now I’m hungry. Anyone have any spare candy?
