I read a few blogs regularly. One of particular interest to me in my professional life has been Guy Kawasaki's How to Change the World. Around the time that I moved from Arkansas to Philadelphia I read one of Guy's posts that lead me to Mama Drama, which I followed for a short time before I realized the only reason I thought the blog was funny was because of Jenny. When I realized that Jenny had her own unadulterated personal blog, I canceled my Mama Drama subscription and became a fan of The Bloggess.
I've just gotta say that Jenny rocks. Amanda and I find ourselves laughing our absolute asses off with every new post she makes. She writes like you think (don't deny that you think that way), which is somehow effing hilarious. When her cat almost died, and then was paralyzed, and then was murdered by the vet, I laughed until I cried, and then I felt like an ass for laughing at her sick cat. (RIP, Bubba. We miss you.)
(By the way, Jenny... none of your pictures look anything like the one with you blow-drying your curls on your blog page. What up wit dat?)
(Oh, and I seem to be writing this post with some vain pretense that you'll actually come back here. I'm a goober.)
So, why the big fuss? Jenny commented on my post about teaching my daughter manners. It wouldn't be so weird, because I'm subscribed to her blog, and she's an obsessive blog reader, and she could've easily followed me back here like a stalker. But that can't be! You see, this blog 'o mine is published under my redshade.net account, but I'm subscribed to The Bloggess with my gmail.com account. That would seem to take her stalking to a whole new level. She'd not only have to follow me home, but watch through my window as I changed into my alternate Internet persona (which is extra freaky because I have to wear different underwear for that gig).
So I've been Kawasakied. Maybe not by the original zen-fu master himself, but I've received second-degree honors from the inventor of the word. I feel so blessed.
In repayment to Jenny... the shirt you requested is now available for purchase:

Okay,
1. I'm totally sending that link to my husband so he can tell me that I can't buy it and we can fight about it.
2. I'm totally stalking you. Why won't you look up when I honk? Is this not you? Am I stalking someone who looks like you? What are you wearing?
3. That is totally me in the curlers, only 10 pounds lighter and 2 years younger and with significantly less clothing than normal.
You're really not the big shit, ya know. Jenny totally has you beat!
~your wife. (love you, honey!)
