I did it. I can't believe I actually did it. I thought for sure that we would start this thing and post one 'first timer' to peak the interest of some loved ones and then never ever post again. But, nope--bound and determined..I've made it to what I call, "numero dos." Let me tell you why I was so determined to write again... (This is where I want you to note the individual shown above...meet Regina). I dedicate Numero Dos to Regina for a few reasons, in no particular order:
1. who else could take such a wonderful candid as she can?
2. she is one of the three individuals that I actually have faith will continue to check this post (and that includes Kyle and myself) - I'll make it 4 as my mom might possibly check more often then I do.
3. she referred to our blog as a "gift"...to quote her, "thank you for this gift to the world wide web"
A gift might seem like a weird way to describe a blog..I mean, it's just a bunch of random characters thrown together with a few spaces in between and a few images here and there with nothing but useless information. Something that at the end of reading you'll ask yourself, "did I really just waste that five minutes of my life?" (Answer: oh, you did) Regardless..a gift she says. No ribbons, no bows, no occasion--those gifts are the best kind.
However, I've been called it before and I'll be darn if I'm called it again...giving gifts to only take back...sort of like a tease, if you will. Buying your friend that shirt that you have a HUNCH will be just a little too big for them, knowing it will fit you perfectly--yes, we call them Indian Givers. I didn't want this gift to Regina to be one we take back...you can call me a Giver, you can call me an Indian, but don't you dare call me an Indian Giver. And hence...Numero Dos.
Keep unwrapping, Reg. This gift only gets better. And for all you single fellas out there that like a sweet Italian who can make a KILLER meatball and that can take PHENOMENAL candids....(757) 555 -- ..... ;)
