I don't know if I have a blogging style?

I guess I just write as if Max will read it when he's 21 ...

And because I write as if I'm writing to Max, it is ALWAYS honest.

But fuck. I never knew potential employers google'd your name? Wow. Praise the lord I work in an industry where we focus on the truth being the only thing to set you free :)

P.S Have you ever seen the movie 'the butterfly effect'? There's a scene where Ashton Kutcher is able to go back to his childhood with the kind of assertiveness you gain as an adult, & he says to a childhood abuser,

"listen up fuckbag ... & then lays into him, & stops the abuse".

I often dream about that :)

Going back to my childhood & saying, 'listen up fuckbag'.

Actually ... my sister & I often joke about it. Even though it's seriously not funny.

You must feel so gosh darn free! (I'm sorry, I'm just like Ned Flanders, i cant swear) I too am familiar with separate people/separate lives. It's exhausting & you're always running or hiding. Living as you do, with this kick-arse blog, so openly & with such honesty...you have set yourself (& many others, thank you) free.

I have spent too much time worrying about what others think of me, and I'm still a little sensitive. But when you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to hide from. I love that your boys are Heaven, Earth and the stars to you. I feel exactly the same way with my two. And honestly, that is all that matters. I comment on other blogs, have a little fun and the likes, but your blog has significance. (lots of humour too, but real quality). True meaning.

In honour of cartoon royalty The Simpsons, and my fave Ned "Hi-dilly-ho neighbourinos". "Okaley dokily". And something that so applies to me (& my 1 or 2 alcoholic beverages consumed every decade) "I'm not thinking straight, why did I have that wine cooler last month?"

I'm glad you didn't write a cutesy post with pictures and everything. I'm glad you are being real. I like to think that I'm pretty open on my blog and sometimes it slaps me in the face when IRL people ask me questions about what I have written. I accidentally linked it up to my personal fb page but decided to leave it. I didn't want to make a big deal of it or draw too much attention to it. I write for the simple fact of hoping that someone will read it and think 'phew I'm not the only person who feels this way'.
