Blog Crush

I have a blog crush: The Mrs. at Trying Our Best.

I love the way she writes. She's witty and her posts crack me up! Her boys say the darndest things and do the funniest things and she tackles it all with a sense of humor that I hope I have as Lil' Mootz gets older. (Her number of body fluid stories alone is enough to give me the shakes right now.) She's the wife of a Marine and quite frankly, Marines and their families scare me. However, she has yet to write "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!" on her blog or in a comment to one of my posts, so she's earned my respect rather than making me feel as if she'll beat the s**t out of me if I don't give it to her. (Yes, that is the general impression I get from Marines and their families.)

I googled "Blog crush" to see what the rest of the blogosphere had to say about this and there's quite a lot. Having a blog crush seems like a pretty common thing, so I'm glad to join the ranks of crushers.

Sizzle over at Sizzle Says was good enough to spell out what a blog crush actually is:

A) You can’t wait to read what they post next.
B) You want to be friends with them.
C) You think they are the cat’s meow. Meow!
D) You might find them attractive- physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, whatever floats your boat.
E) If you met them in person, blushing might occur.

If you have to really think hard about who your blog crush is, you probably don’t have one.


(Sizzle also named December 15, "Reveal Your Blog Crush" Day, but I missed last year's boat and I don't feel like waiting for this year's December.)

And just a side note: I do generally adore and admire most all of the blog authors who's blogs I read.

wow I am touched. Really thank you for the kind words. Its a good thing you crush over me cause the way I write and not the way I look in a bathing suit. yikes. Thats all I'll say on that one.

But as I was reading I should admit, yesterday dash-2 was wearing a little usmc shirt to bed and I was teaching him to say ooohrah! and then I moved on and was trying to get him to yell "You cant handle the truth!" It came out all gibbergabbery but still... hiliarious. Sigh what can I say, we're a Marine proud family : )

But dont worry should we ever meet in person I would never kick your arse. And I would make sure that my boys were relatively behaved.

Oh and in short order you too will have as many bodily function stories. Just wait.
