Apr. 25, 2009 - Hey, wait, ain't that a splog?
So, you muse to yourself, how can this chick be anti-splog one moment and hawking something the next?
First off, I am pregnant. I can do anything I want and it doesn't have to make sense. Rational and I are only nodding acquaintances at this point. Queasy and Sleepy are my new best pals.
Second off, I am way too unimportant for anyone to be trying to get product placement on my blog. I am an influencer only in my own mind. I honestly think these are the coolest coatracks ever and if I get some of them, it will be at the stupid $29.99 full retail price. I am raving about this in the same way I would rave about my $2 maternity clothes a friend found for me at a garage sale. Not in the way Truman's wife raved about cocoa on The Truman Show.
Third off, this probably explains why I was a total flop as a Discovery Toys consultant years ago. I'll yip yap all day about things I have absolutely no investment in, but throw that business element into my personal world and I get all freaked out.
Fourth off, lots of things bother me in theory that I can overlook in myself. John Ortberg describes it thusly, "Human beings have a remarkable capacity for self-deception." Consider this my disclaimer for any future splogging if I ever do become an influencer to voices other than those in my own head.
If none of this makes any sense yet, go back up to the all sufficient reason #1.
:)
Blessings, Holly

Mar. 1, 2009 - For the ADD or time pressed amongst us
The cast of Fireproof (see my blog post below) put together this tongue-in-cheek 60 second summary of the movie. Cute!

Jan. 4, 2009 - Yes, I am aware
that my book reviews are not so much reviews as they are vague impressions followed by what I really want to say about the broad topic the book addresses. I find it more fun that way and I trust you do too. At a minimum, you'll get a thumbs up or thumbs down sense from me that will serve as a practically fool-proof guide to steer you away from bad books. Life is too short to read bad books.
My first three "reviews" of the year are further down the blog. Enjoy!
Blessings, Holly

Sep. 8, 2008 - Something you never really know until you're the mother of three boys.
Discarded cicada exoskeletons are everywhere, if only you know where to look.
