Firstly, I received a note from Jenny, the Bloggess, this morning that told me that she had included my website as one of the featured blogs on Good Mom/Bad Mom's "BS Sunday" at MomHouston.com. My heart did this fluttery thing, and I hugged myself with a bit of sweet joy, and then I ran to the kitchen to grab a chunk of this spicy sausage that the Palinode picked up on a trip, because this particular kind of spicy sausage is amazing and perfect for celebrating, especially when paired with a small slice of smoked gouda.

Secondly, I've started doing reviews. DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT. I am in no way going to foist them upon you here. I am just going to occasionally slide a link in here to let you know that I've done a review over there, and if you happen to click on that link, let it be known that it will be entirely your fault that you went over there in the first place. Of course, some of you might very well want to go over there. That's the way us humans work, all of us wanting different things at different times all over the place. It's a wacky world we live in.

My first review ever, which I am hoping you want to read, is here: "On the Road".

It is really mostly like a weblog entry you might find here, except that it is over there and mentions BlogHer and the movie "Nights in Rodanthe".

See? It's painless.
