I've Been Trying To Tell You
This blog is boring.
I'm just a new mom with an especially cute baby. That's it. No gossip; no excitement; no brilliance. Just puke, and the occassional spelling error.
But now a local weekly has made it official. They're running a bit about my blog and a few of my buddy's blogs. And the verdict is:
"Reason No. 62 not to blog: You may be dull as dish soap. Someone (not naming names here, but thanks Ms. Vicious!) recently sent us a list of blogs by Orlando Sentinel reporters. And at first we were excited, hoping to read about backstabbing editors, libidinous proofreaders sleeping with Mike Thomas to get to the top, that sort of thing. But what we really found out is that these bloggers are boring. They’re young, they go to parties and drink and they think they’re about to change the world. Ah, youth…It’s more than you ever wanted to know about some of the people who bring you the Orlando Sentinel.”
The blurb also mentions a recent post about my poop hole. Yeah, I think it is bigger than it was before childbirth. I don't mind that little detail being published for all the world to see -- after all, it already was.

Things You Never Knew Were Patented
About a month ago, we reported USPTO Museum Opens at New Headquarters . However, there was little more than a press release at that time.
Check out Stephanie L. Woolford's brand new free eBook! Unreal! You can make a killing with this!

Wow - okay - so you have a whole lot of anonymous comments here just wanting to have your readers check out their blogs - if I were you, I'd delete them. But then I'm not you, so you know.
Hey - and you aren't boring.
Hey, I want to hear more about the baby! Mine is 7 weeks old....my life is probably more boring!
hey...where's the rest of your blog........
I hope you didn't listen to those assholes....you are not boring - and seriously, they are just looking for sleeze, so that's why you seem boring to them - you aren't sleezy! You don't gossip, you are REAL, and that's why we all like reading your blog!
Hope you didn't delete it all. Forget what some knob in a business journal says. I'd write my blog whether anyone read it or not. From what I can tell, only a handful of friends read mine...and bunch of internet friends I met on a soccer message board.
Crap, I write about stupid stuff like football, music, soccer and the dingbats that run the leasing office at my apartment complex.
I enjoyed keeping up with your family through your blog since you guys moved.
Bring it back!
Bring it back! My baby (of my six kids) is 12 1/2. I need my Sashe fix!
Well, a deleted blog is definitely a boring blog. But I do find it ironic that you felt it OK to divulge your thoughts and ultra-personal details on the Internet until you realized that people were reading it? I mean, did you really think that this could have stayed secret in a newsroom?
Well, I am enjoying reading about your new adventures in mommyhood. It's obvisously a world some cannot appreciate, in spite of the fact their own mothers went through it themselves. Keep being true to you.
I'm thinking the anonymous comment above mine is someone who works in the newsroom. Why can't you use your real name, pussy?
L -- I'm so sorry for all of this. I encourage everyone to send an email to the authors of that column, blasting them for ridiculing you. How dare they? You're human with human experiences, and they exploited that. I guess I'm not as mad about Maese and Tania, but with you -- you were writing about birth. It's so precious and special, and they just act like it's nothing. Anyway, I'm pissed. I already sent an email, and I invite others to do so too.
The authors are Jeffrey C. Billman and Bob Whitby. Their email is happytown@orlandoweekly.com.
Keep up the blog. Every day, I look forward to reading your posts and seeing pictures of Sasha. You're a good mom. Sasha will appreciate your journaling later, just remember that. Screw those stupid weekly reporters. They're losers.
Thanks for sharing that lovely information about your tunnel!
An interesting fact i could not have done without knowing
Someone who uses the name "Rock Chalk" should be the last person to call someone a pussy for using the term "Anonymous".
Either that or I feel sorry that you have such a name as "Rock Chalk."
your blog is definitely not boring! i enjoy reading about all of it - from sasha to your butthole being bigger! f those guys!
OK, now your anonymous commenters are wasting their time bashing on your friend's screen names... wow.
You know a person's blog can be anything they want it to be, and their names can be whatever they choose. If you don't like it, or find it booring, then move on. No one is asking you to read it. I can't beleive that there was nothing better to write about than that article... sheesh.
Li Li Li- I just wanted to thank you for your blog- when I realized it was going to be more difficult than building an airport to catch each other on the phone, I finally caved in and not only discovered what a blog is, but discovered yours. I, a nation away, feel like I see you every day again, and I can't tell you how much that makes me smile. HaHa- I guess I am the MOST boring person, because last Sunday I spent my whole day reading every single entry you have put in since you began- I am really glad I did that already. I feel close to you in a way I haven't been able to since we went to San Antonio, and when I showed my mom pictures of Sasha and the letter you wrote to Sasha, she cried. My mom never cries. If that isn't excitement, I really have never experienced that emotion. So please, pretty pretty please with a cherry on top keep posting- even if it's only for your long lost best friend in AZ. And call me if you get a spare moment!!!!!!!
