About You
I am so happy and honored that you stopped by to read my blog ! Let me tell you a few of the things I like so much about you:
You are kind to animals and children.
You are thoughtful and considerate of others’ needs, and your presence always make others smile.
You have well-reasoned, super-intelligent ideas and convictions. You also have a warm and caring heart, and you perfectly balance love and logic.
You take risks and have great adventures.
You are a domestic genius and make your surroundings appealing and attractive, and you feed your friends and family delicious, nutritious treats.
You have an amazing sense of humor.
Your fabulous taste combines with great personal attractiveness to create huge personal charisma.
You shine in your chosen field and are brilliant in your career.
You bring a spark of interest to any gathering; people can’t wait to talk to you and be around you.
Your life experiences have brought you great wisdom and depth.
All these, and many more wonderful traits, make you the kind of person everyone wants to get to know.
How do I know all these things about you? Easy: You’re here at my blog reading this. Your discerning taste and fabulous personality are therefore completely self-evident.
Still, there’s just one tiny thing you could do that would really put the cherry on the ice-cream-sundae that is you: Leave a comment! Any comment on any post — don’t think you have nothing to say, because I will discern the hidden genius in even the most banal comments. Go ahead! It’s the one thing lacking to a Perfect You.
———-
P.S. I will delete any comments I consider offensive — but I’m not worried since I know you wouldn’t ever say anything offensive here.

Funny, that’s what it said in my last fortune cookie. (It was a large one apparently.)

That is a GENIUS comment!

I, too, am a genius.

Yeah — and I can’t believe I left out the part about your being a great musician.

Thanks, Ellen! It is a fun distraction for me.
Libilu: You’re right, some of these descriptions are pitifully inadequate to describe how completely fabulous you are.

hahaha-yeah right. Thanks for the compliment, tho!

I love your blog! I came across it from someone else’s blog who is my sister’s sister-in-law. I wish I were all those wonderful things you listed.

Hello Zina,
Please forgive the intrusive blurking, but I found your blog through my brother-in-law Dan Bartholomew. I used to work at the OPL, once upon a time, between the ages of 14-21. Just wanted to compliment your fun blog and beautiful family.

Karen, I do remember you. Back when Dan and Diane first started dating, my mom helped me make that connection, and I had figured the occasional Karen comment on Dan’s blog must be you. Thanks for commenting/de-lurking (which makes you all the more fabulous!)
Rose was just saying our morning family prayer (I stepped away from the computer mid-comment to participate) and in the middle of the prayer she suddenly shouted “Shoo, fly!” (Dean told her to finish her prayer and then he swatted it for her.)

Sounds like my horoscope, or a long fortune in a fortune cookie. What we all love to and need to hear sometimes.

Isn’t it uncanny how the characteristics that are so you, are the very ones YOU see in everyone else?
