First of all, I have been working on this page. I hated it before and I actually still hate it so let’s substitute “working on” with “farting around with” and call it a day. Unless you feel like asking a bunch of FAQ of me in the hopes that I might answer them which is probably a good idea, isn’t it? ISN’T IT? No, you are entirely sick of it and you’re highly offended that I asked, yeah yeah I know.
Secondly, I’m speaking at BlogHer this year. The Plan is that my mom and daughter will attend with me if we can all swing it. I’m not sure what they’re thinking putting a microphone in my hand and letting me sit on a panel. My therapist will probably THANK THEM WITH A DOZEN ROSES EACH.
This month I’ve decided to nominate a Perfect Post Award (put on by these two ladies) and I haven’t done that in a while. It’s only because I can’t always remember to do it and never for a shortage of good writing. Sometimes the posts I dearly love are long and full of lots of details but this month I was touched deeply by the simplicity of my friend Jess. She and her husband are going through a separation and now they are working on a reconciliation.
Her post is entitled “Beginnings” and has a sweet picture in the post. It’s just a beautiful thing. She writes with such rawness and honesty and with all her soul right out there that it’s refreshing in the best possible sense of that word. I can’t comment much more on it than that.

Re. the “about me” page and the job title: I think “Principality” would be a good replacement for “Deanery.” Sounds Biblical even.

I think you will make a perfect speaking at BlogHer.
Which means… I have to research the whens and wheres… and see if I can swing it. How great that would be!

So I guess that’s the reason why I couldn’t get on this site last Friday, huh? I was worried for a second that you deleted your blog. Shew! Congrats on being selected to be a speaker at Blogher! I’m confident you are going to wow the audience.

Three generations of Mocha on the same stage? The concept blows me away.
On the theme of teachers (we were, weren’t we?) my post today is something that you can identify with. (I know, I ended with a preposition. Gee, it’s June!!)

I crapped a cow the other day. It really hurt. So not telling your dad is a good idea.

I will be sure to make your panel at BlogHer (if I can figure out which one it is) — seriously, did not see your name on that list, but will find you!
