not here ... over there ...

i'm not here today ...
i'm over here ... guest posting at the dayton time ...

i offered to give pamela a little bit of a break while she was "cranking out number four" (her words ... not mine.)

and then i managed to make myself apparently invisible. (well ... now ... we've since realized that to each other ... we are just considered spam.) and so not the spam of minnesota heritage.
(really ... that link takes you to spam dot com ... no joke ... there's even a spam fan club. now we know. life can go on.)

really what i'm trying to say ... is not about spam ... i got sidetracked ... it's about how pamela and i couldn't get in touch with each other.
and then she had her baby and i totally stressed that she was thinking i was ignoring her request and i was thinking that maybe she didn't REALLY want me to post ...but now ... we're all good. whew.
and i've decided to give everyone over there a few examples of a first born little in comparison to the fourth born little in a family.

and i make the claim to have absolutely no true knowledge of this ... so this may be complete falsehood. you've been warned. please consult a medical professional with any questions. these results are not typical. please eat and drink responsibly. and look both ways before you cross the street. the end.

now go and check her out! she's all kinds of wonderful!

and so is jen of steenky bee ... who gave me a wonderful shout out in her guest post ... which was posted the day before me ... and made me feel lotsa nervous because wow. it's like being the younger sibling to a mensa member. it is so hard to confidently follow a professional like steenky ... so i suggest that you run on over there and make me feel less incompetent. thanks in advance.

(and you can totally skip the first few paragraphs ... 'cause i'm so awesome at copying and pasting. and you pretty much just got that here. but that doesn't mean that you can skip the jump on over there. i'm watching you. you've been warned.)
