after finding my blog a couple months ago, a friend of mine had the following reaction:
"you have an obsession with chocolate and men --
which makes you like 99% of women in the world"
hmm. i'm not sure i like that. and i thought about it a lot, actually. see? well, i probably am obsessed with chocolate. i'll give you that. i mean, with a blog title like mine, i think that's probably a given. but obsessed with men? dunno. hmmm.
for those of you who don't know me in real life, i don't know that i really want that to be the impression you have of me. and for those of you that do know me, i hope you realize that i have to write about entertaining things -- y'know, to keep readership up. but i kinda decided that i was going to change the topics of my posts.
so, i did. i haven't been writing about chocolate, like at all. (i wrote about beef, yes. but no one ever suggested that i was obsessed with beef. did they??) and i really haven't written anything about men.
... and my blog has been a little dry. admittedly.
i am getting a bit tired of trying to make my work life seem *really* interesting -- well, at least interesting enough to not fall asleep while writing about it, let alone reading about it. which is really exhausting! i'm sorry, but accounting just really isn't that exciting. (hope nobody slits their wrists because of that revelation. if so, i'm sorry for that, too.)
and so, i'm changing my mind again. we will soon be welcoming posts about chocolate, posts about men, and maybe even some posts about chocolate *and* men! ooo! this opens all kinds of doors!! so sit tight kiddies, this will be fun.
oh -- and if any of y'all want to think that i am obsessed with chocolate and men ... well, perhaps ... you might be right ... but i guess there's not much i could do about that, anyway. so i might as well just write what i want. right?

i'm ok that you're interested in men, actually i'm VERY glad that you ARE interested in men
Do you remember how we used to joke about sliting our wrists "this way"--being up and down the wrist instead of across it? We were so morbid, and funny, but I still can't share that joke with anyone else, they would think I was crazy (am I?).
I love you girl!
thanks, julie. yeah -- i'm interested in men. and happy about it. :)
and as far as slitting wrists ... yeah, i still joke about that with people. and they *do* think that i am crazy. so yeah.
...
you're right, your blog is more interesting when you are free to write about chocolate and men. but i must say that i shared your "bum" experience with more people than i have anything else. so there's that...
Well, you definitely can't hide the chocolate addiction, but as far as the men go, keep the stories coming...we like hearing them. Not obsessive, just entertaining. Hey, good luck on that blasted test. Sounds like a killer!
oh, and i've got some great stories to tell, too ... just gotta find time to write them up.
be patient ... they are coming ...
(thanks for the "good luck", we'll see how that one went. as for now, i just scheduled my last 2. one in august, one in october. i'll need luck for those ones, too!)
