I would think the answer to that would be...
Not everyone, but it is beginning to feel that way. I mean I have one for G-d sake, and who the hell am I?
A friend told me the MOST hysterical story the other night. She had her annual gynecologist's appointment last week. The doctor came into the exam room and right before she began the exam said, "Did I tell you I have a blog?"
Ok, seriously. Is this what we want to hear from our gyn right before she says, "Can you slide down just a little bit further?" I challenge anyone to tell me that their gyn does not ask them to slide down a little more. There have been times when I swore my ass was almost hanging off the edge of the exam table in some bizarre yogic position with my legs in the stirrups and the doc still asks me to 'slide down just a little bit further'.
Oops, I digress. So, here is my friend in that lovely pose and all she wants to ask is, "What is the name of your blog, The Vagina Monologue?" Luckily she was able to curb the impulse to be a wise ass. (something I could never master). She said something like, "oh, really. how nice."
Does this make anyone else nervous? We sign the HIPA form and think we are done. But are we featured on some med blogs as a Jane Doe of symptoms? Kind of creepy if you ask me.
No worries, it turns out the blog is a medical info type thing that she writes with a group of other docs. Sorry, that is nowhere as funny as where our runaway imaginations can take us.
Now if I find out my dog groomer is blogging I am really going to be furious.
i think my dogs have a blog ...

If I were a gynecologist, I would totally have a blog and I would be giving away vejayjay secrets for sure. Why else have one? Family photos? Pshaw.

Scary stuff. Remind me to tell you how we got fired from our vet when I blogged about them.

I got a free sweatshirt from my local coffee drivethru when I blogged about them! Made me laugh.

Ever been to ThinkGeek? Among other great and quirky products, they sell a pair of black bikini panties with "I'm blogging this" on them. If that doesn't kill the mood, I don't know what would!
