Suddenly *Not So* Single Journey

May I have your attention, please?

*Ahem*  Is this thing on?

I have an announcement to make.  Some of you may have already heard…since my mother inadvertently outed me.  (She feels really bad about it, by the way.  So, let’s not mention it…)

Last weekend, I was offered the opportunity to contribute to another blog.  So, in addition to the crazy ramblings I post here, you can now also read me periodically here: Deep South Moms.  They posted my bio a few days ago.

So, yeah, there’s a picture of me.  It’s, apparently, not flattering.  (Mystery Man has spoken.  Of course, some of you may think of him as Mr. Tiffany’s of my not-a-date.)  And in answer to the question some of you are pondering, or even muttering to yourselves if you’ve been reading me a while, no, I don’t think I ever will get tired of linking to that post.  It was an amazing night…and not because of the jewelry.  See, that’s the post that is on the far end of the good side of the spectrum, while this one (with the picture of Sam and the cleansing ritual) is at the opposite end.  I’ll never tire of that one either, though for completely different reasons.  Ahhh.

At some point in time, if I’m ever having a goddess day, or feel especially shiny and pretty, or all loopy on cold medicine…I’ll take a new picture and change that one.  I can’t explain.  Whatever I have doesn’t seem to translate well on camera…digital or film.  I’m best in person…and even then you may be taking your chances.  (This is why I try to stress to Rachel the importance of having a nice personality.)

Well, I am dying to know what you think of the post on the other blog.  Please leave feedback…anywhere you want.  It’s a different experience having an editor.  Here, I can be all wild and crazy, blather on incessantly about everything and nothing.  Here, I have no one to make suggestions or keep me from making a horrific mistake.  There’s no training wheels, I simply rely on my gut.  So far, so good, I guess.  It seems that I haven’t really offended anyone or alienated large groups of people.  Everyone has been really kind.

Here’s my first post.  I don’t think it is a vast departure from what I write here, maybe a little more polished, a little more professional, but I think it still sounds like me.  (You know, single mom muddling through as best she can while exposing her soft underbelly to the world.)  And while it is a post that is original for Deep South Moms, the real me will still be here…all wild and crazy, all uncensored and real.

Have a really special Friday, everyone!  Pick an amazing soundtrack to get yourself through the day.
