What I've Learned...


Well hello.

The reunion, the explanation for my absence, the gossip from BlogHer '09, and the very important update on my greying roots will all have to wait.

What I have learned today that needs immediate attention is this:

Despite all indication otherwise, one can miss a stinky, silly, immature, belligerent, petulant, manic, perverted 15 year old boy more than a heart can stand.

I hope to god you are still wearing a feather boa on your head.

Thanks for making blogher such a blast.

Kristina P. said...

I am so glad you're posting! I miss you!

Ash said...

...and one can miss a sweet, boa wearing (evidently), slightly greying, definitely intelligent, bloggy bud more than I ever want to again.

So get to writing.

Please.

I was wondering what happened to you! I'm glad your back and I'm excited to hear about your adventures, misadventures and gossip -- but give that boy a hug first.

Denise @ Sunflowers, Chocolate and Little Boys said...

Go Hug that hansome boy and get back to writing when your done. We all miss you terribly!

Annie said...

Ok, now that you are over that, blog already!

Sera said...

I just kept telling myself about your summer blogging thing - blogging less and all that. But, oh how I have MISSED you! Can't wait to hear about Blogher, and to read your stuff again. Welcome backy, funny lady. :)

Sassy Britches said...

And if he missed you half as much as I do having known you for like 8hours, you are one blessed woman! :)

As my daughter told me once, when talking about her younger brother, "What is it about boys, Mom? They really get to me."

Deb!! I have missed you!!

scrappysue said...

ya sure can! i think my pets miss me more when i'm away, or maybe teenagers don't like to admit they miss you!

Cajoh said...

Good lesson. I'm sure some people will agree with teenage daughters of the same age as well. Ah teenagers.

Did not know you were at BlogHer. Someone's going to have to ask me to be a guest speaker otherwise I will always miss it (even though it is in my home town).

Hope you had fun.

I had a painful gall bladder removed a few years ago. Is it anything like missing that???

Claremont First Ward said...

Oh........you only missed the one? j/k. This warmed my heart.

I'll be looking for updates. I didn't know that you went to BlogHer too. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one that wasn't there.

I forgot you went to Blog Her. I'm jealous--downright green with envy.

I hear you on missing moody teen- I do too when we're apart-my moody teens that is. Go figure:)

Unknown said...

I know you will find this hard to believe. But this lil' post of yours made me uh, cry.

Okay the tears did not fall but they brimmed. Just so you know.
