What a beautiful letter. You’re right WTM, this does make me feel better. “(By the way–Sony? You make a mean butthole camera monitor. Apparently my colon was viewed in high-def.)” I can’t stop laughing. Frakking toddlers. (Wait, at what age do they stop being toddlers?) Sigh, I love brothers.
HBM still hasn’t had her baby yet, but even during weeks of crappy pre-labor she can write a great post about her online circle of friends. BlogHer is going into the pay per post business??

“Every time I get together with other bloggers I tell myself, THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!and thank my stars that I happened into this weird and all-consuming hobby that just happens to hook me up with really incredible women who strangely enough are a lot like me.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.

I’m all for karma, but report him. That’s an awful story.
