I am a huge football fan (I know my husband was s-o-o-o glad to hear about that when we met almost seven years ago).  Right now, I’m working on my blog, trying to make the most efficient use of the limited, scarce hours I have remaining this evening.  I’m working on my blog at the expense of…

THE CHICAGO BEARS AND NEW ORLEANS SAINTS GAME!!! 

I want the Chicago Bears to win…my husband is cheering for the Saints.  His favorite phrase is “Don’t sleep on those Saints!”  But I haven’t seen but a drop of this game!  What kind of football fan am I? 

Oh, I just heard the commentator say, “Reggie Bush just showed off his speed…” but I didn’t see what he did!  “Reggie Bush picks up a first down…”  “This guy started off the year…but he maintains his balance…right there…”  Oh, my!  It’s a great game too.  What the heck is wrong with me?

I love this blogging thing.  I am finding my voice.  I enjoy sharing information.  I also want to make sure everything is right.  I know that it will never be perfect, but I still have a long way to go.  It takes a lot of time; time I would be spending doing other stuff.  In fact, Tony Hung (who is now working over at ProBlogger) talks about this with his post “5 Prerequisites for Blogging Success” (wait, my husband is saying “Watch this!  Watch this!!!”  He got a touchdown!  Yes, it’s Chicago!  So sorry, sweetheart.).  He’s so right – the writing takes time, the marketing takes time, to try to be interesting takes time…it all takes time! 

(New Orleans challenged the ruling on the field!  New Orleans thinks it’s a fumble.  No way!  The ruling is…it’s Chicago’s ball!)

Alright, I’ve had to sacrifice.  But one thing I can’t sacrifice – feeding my daughter.  Gotta go…

If you’re a football fan, I hope you enjoyed the games…

I’m going to enjoy the second game – I promise!
