Yeah! I'm finally blogging! This reminds me of the scene in "What About Bob" where he's lashed to the sailboat screaming, "I sail! I'm a sailor!" Ok, so, "I blog! I'm a blogger!" I was resistant at first, but, hey, I resisted facebook too and most of you know where that got me.
First, thanks to my friends whose blogs that I'm addicted to reading on a daily basis: Melby Toast (my best friend from college Kristen), Jamey and Norah (my good friend Karyn), Mayberry Happenings (my friend and sorta kinda neighbor Renee) and Jennsylvania (a hilarious author whose books I read in the bathtub).
Some of you know that I recently submitted an essay for a real writing contest! It's sponsored by Real Simple magazine. I want to crawl into Real Simple and live. I love it! The essay was supposed to be about the MOST SIGNIFICANT DAY OF YOUR LIFE. Having had so many wonderful and signficant events happen recently, I narrowed it down to my life-saving heart surgery. I'll keep you posted. First prize is $3,000 and publication in the magazine.
