Okay. Here's the deal: I have received an email from what seems to be a reputable website asking me to apply to be a regular contributor. It would be sort of free-lance, but it would PAY. As in, legal tender. The kind that I could use to buy things with, or pay bills with, or give to my kids to buy things with. The kind that would make it completely unnecessary to give into Google's repeated requests for me to allow them to put ads on my blog. (Which I have considered, but since I have no control over WHAT they advertise, it freaks me out).
I have until noon on Monday to narrow down my 88 posts over the past 18 months into 3 posts. I am working on narrowing the list, and I am listing some of my favorites and front runners. PLEASE comment, private message me, send up smoke signals, whatever you need to do to let me know which ones you think are the best representation of me, my writing style, and my ability.
1) Hey! Teacher! Leave My Kid Alone!

I know. This is pitiful. I should have been able to narrow it better than this. But, I didn't. So as you can see, I need your help. Lots of these, you may not have read before.....especially if you are new here. And if you HAVE read them, please re-read them. Let me know which 3 you would pick. I am trying to show that I can be funny, poignant, sentimental, edgy, sarcastic, .....well, you get the idea. If I can get it down to 5 selections, I will put them in a hat and choose 3. This is why the walls in my house are all white. I suck at making decisions.
This is me...
I'm having a mom moment....

I absolutely LOVE your blog! I too am having trouble narrowing it down. If we must vote/choose, I really like 10, 17, 23, and 25.
Oh man - that's tough just choosing 3!! You have such a great way of writing that really conveys how you're feeling - like in #1 - I really wanted to smack the crap out of that teacher! LOL!
These are my favorites...

Done and done. On Monday, I submitted the 3 posts to apply for the freelance job. I chose the teacher one, the THAT mom one, and the truth in advertising one. (Whew!) Now we shall see if they want me to write for them.....
