Actually, in all sincerity, thank you for reading and commenting. Because if you weren't reading or commenting, then I could just do all this in a journal. But as it stands, I journal my deep dark private stuff and I have an agreement with my friend Cindy to burn all my journals when I die (still remember this, Cin?) so basically what I am realizing is that I will have nothing that can be worth a lot of money when I die because all this wisdom and run-on sentences are left on the internet. Uncopyrighted.
Since death is on the mind, let's talk about all the things I wanted to be when I grew up, whereas now that I am grown up, I go to meetings.
- First female President (I decided this in 5th grade, and I suppose there is still a chance)
- a prosecuting attorney (what kid thinks of this??)
- a speech writer for the President
- a Supreme Court justice
- a theatre actor
- a university professor
- Mary Ann on Gilligan's island
- a fourth sister on the Brady Bunch
Notable absences from the list:
- Princess
- Ballerina
- Mommy
- Someone who could fly
How about you? (this is my pathetic attempt to get more comments. Really, I want you to write about me).

Keep writing Karin. But make it possible to subscribe. Following is irrelevant--I have to go looking. I need to have it come to my mail box, though twitter and FB posts help.
Your wish is my command! I just added an ability to receive these posts via email. Subscribe in the top right hand side of the page.
Hey! I like the new layout. And I tried to post a comment but it was during the "Great Blogger Meltdown of 2011" and it wouldn't stick. So basically, I said that I wanted to read more of your writing so I'm glad that you're sticking with the blog. My one piece of advice was to avoid the Apple blogging platform like the plague. 'Cause it is a plague - a plague of annoyance, poor performance, and lost content. Anyway, excited that you may be posting more!

Good new layout. By the way, I'm sure all of the non-Nick at Night related future jobs would have also involved meetings. Of course, I wanted to be a paleontologist.
I absolutely remember, Karin! I promise to uphold my end of the bargain. As for me, I have purposefully kept all of my journals in one, easy-to-find location so you don't have to search around for them when the time comes ;)
I read them in my reader - so you'd never really know. But now, I am commenting - so you do.
I do not think I ever knew - and still might not. Huh.
