Blue Eyes and I have been teasing Noel lately, "Stop with all that reading! Will you please go watch some TV?" She is fascinated by the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer, she has read all four books, each several times and she can pick up any of the books, find a favorite part and get lost for hours. I decided to read Twilight over the holiday and it all started as good, clean fun, but I left it unfinished, because it made me feel creepy, in a way that didn't have much to do with vampires...

I've shared with ya'll all of the money (you know, like the Free Box of Huggies Coupon) and fame (my Wall Street Journal interview that didn't get published) that blogging brings. But I haven't mentioned the many job opportunities. I was on Craig's list the other day (trying to sell Neil Diamond tickets in San Antonio, anyone want to see Neil Diamond in San Antonio?) and saw lots of actual paying jobs for bloggers. Amazing!

My in-person relationships are more important than my blog and I've got to save something for my tell-all book, right? But this all changes today. I'm willing to give up my Biggest Blog Secret Ever to you for just $10. DON'T READ THE REST OF THIS POST IF YOU DON'T HAVE $10 TO GIVE ME. If you are ready, only if you are fully committed, here it is...

Sarah Palin fascinates me. A conservative woman and an ambitious, working Mom. It doesn't fit into the every day definitions of how we divide the red and the blue and I love reading about how people react to her. It got me to thinking, I wonder what the Attachment Parenting folks think? I've said already in this post, that if I met Dr. Sears, the father of Attachment Parenting, I would punch him...
