Pretend it is November 1st.
If I could, I would turn back the date on this post from November 2nd to November 1st, in order to join NaBloPoMo 2009– National Blog Posting Month, where I pledge to make 30 posts in 30 days.* I haven’t posted since May, and have been in a bit of a funk, so maybe this will jolt me into posting more frequently than ever. I have a backlog of topics to cover, such as “How We Survived the Swine Flu of Summer 2009″, “What We Did On Our Summer Vacation”, “How I Kicked My Zyrtec Habit”, and “Holy Hannah, I Have a Three and a Half Year Old”. I also have a draft post I started last year about learning to play the ukulele– something else I have not been keeping up with, so maybe, just maybe I will make November 2009 the month I post every day AND start playing the ukulele every day. If my faithful readers (ha! the almost 6 month lapse in my posting probably scared off the 2 or 3 faithful readers I had!) have any requests for post topics, please let me know. 30 posts is a lot of posting, especially since I have had this blog since when… January 2008?… and have only made 68 posts to this point!
Apparently this happens every month, but in November there are prizes… which I am ineligible for since I’m starting Nov. 2nd, but that won’t dissuade me! Thanks to Laura for the idea.
*If I could really turn back the clock, I would also like to change the results of Game 4 of the World Series. How do I get that power?

Oh dear goodness, let’s all say seven hail marys and twelve our fathers that tonight’s game is better than the last two.
PS: I am SO GLAD you’re BACK!! Good luck w/ the contest — I look forward to reading all the posts. WOOT!

Wow, I think your hail marys and our farthers worked! Go Phillies!
I’m already feeling dread about coming up with 30 days of posts. I think there will be some… “Today I did the dishes” posts!

I think you were otherwise occupied! Late June/Early July. It wasn’t that bad!
