One more thing

Every week or month or so, I find someone that I really wish I could be. Like when I was a kid, I wanted to be my camp counselor, Kim. Then after that, I wanted to be my other camp counselor, blank. (I can see her face clear as a bell, but her name...I have no idea.) Later on in life, I wanted to be one of those people who knew a bunch of famous people.

Now, I want to be Heather Armstrong and Sloane Crosley all rolled up into one. Check out the list on the right of my favorite blogs this week, and see what I'm talking about. Perhaps you don't think they're funny. Perhaps you think I'm weird. (Then go read somewhere else.) But I'm telling you, these girls are genius. And my ultimate goal, other than becoming one of those women on tv that elicit a "Daaamn!" from Brian Baker, is to write and be funny and not care what people think and attract a following like these girls have.

In my little, itty bitty world, these women are my heroes. Aside from you, Mom. And speaking of moms, Lucy and Charlie should absolutely go out and buy me "I Was Told There'd Be Cake" for Mother's Day. Not because I deserve it or because I'm a good cat mommy, but because I want it desperately and need it for my vacays.

Oh, and also, check out Jonathan Martin's blog on Politico.com. He's a smarty too, and not because I knew him in college and because he broke up with my former BFF (this is going to come back and bite me in the ass, but great move, Martin!), but because he just is really smart.
