Please Don't Copy. I really didn't want to put a copyright thing on my site. It seemed a little....I don't know. But it's been brought to my attention I need to remind people to maybe think their own thoughts.
You're ill? I'm sorry...but in a way relieved, since there is nothing to feel ill about over the interview. It's great.I got slammed at a ParentsPlace message board years ago for liking brown and blue together, while not my all time fave, I like that combo too.Hope you feel better-
I love the picture they used. Is that Logan in the foreground? Your chandelier is awesome, and I love how it plays off the mug(?) on the table. And then you look so contemplative and writerly. Oh, I just noticed that's a mirror in the back. So you're in front of the viewer. Way cool. Great shot, great composition.
Great interview, but I actually popped in (now that I have a typewhatever account) to tell you that I thought your post in response to MIM's thing about False Advertising was by miles the most insightful thing I read on the subject (and I blog-hopped like mad around that subject, because it was so interesting).
I spent ten years in the crazy hell of my-weight-is-myself, and you are right, when it comes to weight, there's a hell of a lot of baggage to wade through before most of us can calmly hear anyone else express a different view on the topic.
I'm sorry weight is an issue for you; been there, it sucks, full stop. I hope you can get to a place where it doesn't stop you from revelling a little your essential coolness.
As someone whose blog readership is closer to the 4 than the 4,000, thanks for the comment about the 'popular blogs.' Sometimes I feel like a little mouse squeaking in an auditorium full of people. I'll keep on squeaking, I guess...
just wanted to let you know that in honor of you, Wood made the peanut chicken recipe last night. delicious. I had two huge helpings, then felt guilty. we're going to make that once a week now until we get totally sick of it.
Good interview. It's too bad you're banned from writing about your in-laws because I suspect there are some funny stories not being told. ;)

Excellent interview. But keep the bad attitude~ a positive attitude is so overrated.
