Amalah (pron. AIM-ah-lah) lives in our nation's capital, where she makes her readers laugh and cry by obsessively chronicling her life, neuroses, pregnancy and the vagaries of first-time motherhood. Formerly a financial editor, she is now (thanks to her site's success) a work-at-home mom, who also freelances for ClubMom.com and AlphaMom.com. Washingtonian magazine called amalah.com "addictive" and davebarry.com deemed it perfect "for those who enjoy sobbing helplessly at their desks."

In a good way.
