Ulterior Motives

First off, in the interest of full disclosure, and all that... I mentioned in my first blog that I had ulterior motives for blogging, besides just wanting to write. Here it comes...... (Am I a sell-out???): I am starting a home business, and hope to use blogging as a way of networking and advertising. So now you know, and you can choose to read or to refrain, to become a pawn in my evil schemes or to run for the hills. Or just to read some other blog by a truly altruistic soul who has less mercenary reasons for blogging.

On the bright side, I'm going to write about whatever I feel like writing about - not just about business.

Oh, and here's the other thing. This might truly turn you against me, even if the networking/advertising thing wasn't a deal breaker: my picture. I cheated a little. Not that it isn't me, or that it's me after thousands of dollars worth of surgery, or me after a little Botox enhancement; it's none of the above. But my husband did take the picture of me from slightly above, so as to minimize the double chin and bags under my eyes. I hope it doesn't smack of MySpace desperation or anything. The picture does look the way I really look.... about 25 pounds lighter and on 8 hours of sleep a night. The way I looked for a brief moment in time just before my second kid was born, when I got into shape and onto a good sleep schedule - about 3 years after my first kid came around.

So there you have it.

Oh also, if you want to know my favorite joke, which I learned in fourth grade, and which is the only joke I can actually remember, it's this:

What do Star Trek and toilet paper have in common?








............................................They both go to Uranus to wipe out the Klingons!



I told my pastor this joke a while back and he liked it. Hope you did, too.
