"But I Don't Want to be a Blogger!"

Who would read anything written by me UNLESS it was emailed directly to your inbox and I fooled you into thinking it was something from your boss? I mean c'mon, really? I can think of many other things I'd rather be doing than reading (or writing, quite frankly) someone's blog. I've never done it. Nope not once. I'm a virgin when it comes to blogging.

Well, I guess that's shot now, isn't it? (And everyone said it would be so memorable . . .)

And when I write I sound like Eyore. That can't be good for readers either. Who wants to read dribble authored by a stuffed donkey or your average-Joe Seattalite? But, since you're here and there's nothing on the 500 cable channels you pay for, your dishes and laundry are done, grocery shopping is completed and your cars are washed and topped off with gas, your children are all in bed with their schoolwork completed, you have no friends or family to call on the phone or to visit, you're showered, shaved and your fridge was recently cleaned out and the vacuuming is done . . . I guess you have time to read this.

Okay then. I get it. Now I need to write something worth reading. Something insightful. Something whitty. Perhaps something that will surprise or make you laugh or whatever. Okay then. I get it.

Here you go then - I love Amy Hutchins. In fact, I adore her. No, more than that - I want to be married to her forever. She is the epitome of the perfect woman and I am the LUCKIEST man alive.

That right there should cure my Eyore-syndrome.

Mike- Welcome to the wonderful world of blogging!! You're going to be great and I am counting on lots of details on your lives once Amy moves away! I am going to miss her like mad! She truly is the epitome of the perfect woman and I love her too!
Thanks for making her so happy!
Much Love ---Kim

Oh schei toch uit! You know at least I will read whatever you write, however you sound! And I will be expecting REGULAR (as in AT LEAST 1/week!!) updates ;-).

Kus,

Ans

I think you do want to be a blogger and you just don't know it yet. Yes, in fact, soon you will probably be addicted like me and find yourself blogging about every little cute/funny/annoying thing that happens to you or maybe even post about your new addiction.

Congratulations on your engagement!

Sarah (You know, Matt's wife)

P.S. I see you have comment moderation enabled. So much for my plans to swear for shock value. It was going to be a real doozy.

I am just so thrilled for you all. And Congratulations to everyone. We'll be in Seattle (well, Redmond) for Thanksgiving--and a couple of days longer. Looks like we might miss you, since you will be in SLC. But someday you are bound to want to visit Nauvoo, and then we'll reel you all in and get to know you hook, line and sinker. Please do let us know. We have two guest rooms (unless Marci is home from BYU, and then she'd probably share!). And we live 6 blocks from the most fantastic Temple since 1846! Much love to you all.
