coming clean

I've been keeping secrets from you, Internet. And it's time to come clean, not only because I need some sort of excuse to explain my neglect of you, but also because it will ultimately provide lots and lots of good blog-fodder and (hard to believe, but true) there really are only so many entries a girl can dedicate to how delicious her baby nephew smells and ZOMG my sister dressed him up in tiny golf clothes. I know. Death from cuteness.  Anyway, I'm seeing someone. There. It's out. And the thing is, we don't really get tired of each other, so there's not a whole lot of minutes in the day where I find myself choosing to sit in front of my computer rather than say, invent new ways to call him a geek (to date, giving him the title of The Dork Lord is probably my go-to favorite). So you can see how I've had a few more demands on my time, and it doesn't mean I don't love you, it just means that I'm going to learn to adjust my priorities and blah blah... Whatever. I don't have to explain why I like kissing better than blogging. I just do!

Karen said:

I haven't posted a comment before, but read your blog and love your quirky sense of humor and your point of view on life. I'm very happy to hear you've met a guy and it gives me a good sequeway into a question for you. I write romance for Harlequin and wonder if you've ever thought about hosting a guest blogger? I have a book coming out in March and I'm setting up my blog tour. Please e-mail me and let me know and keep having a good time.

I have been a far less prolific blogger since taking up with my honey. Life is all the better for it! Carry on!

Krissi said:

Aren't dorky boyfriends fun?
Can't wait for details ... but at your leisure, madam. We'll just assume that every. single. second. that you are not blogging that you are, in fact, engaged in lip wrasslin'.
Sweeeeet.

The Internet said:

Dear Fish,

You are forgiven.

lori said:

congrats and good luck with the dork lord.

Elena said:

Awwwww yay! Very exciting.

I do a lot of kissing. And quite a bit of blogging.

I bet you'll find a balance that works for you. ;)

Jasmine* said:

Hell yeah! Oh my god...I don't even know you and I'm excited! Hollllla!

lola said:

It's ok, Kissing beats blogging anytime! just like Rock breaks scissors minus the heavy lifting.

CaliGal said:

You go, Girl! :)

You're so deserving of it and I'm very happy for you. Enjoy!

Shawn said:

I'm so glad for you, Heather! I wish you and The Dork Lord much happiness.

You are forgiven. (And does this mean that you are officially his Dork Lady?)

Oh man! I have a bicycle too... wait, I think I have a bicycle but I'm not sure that it's really mine yet. I would *love* to take it out for a spin but it seems a little shy. Argh. I just want to lean over and ring the bell. Or touch the handlebars. I don't even need to sit on it! Or play with the kickstand! Sigh. I think your bicycle might be better than mine.

D said:

Hey, I have an award waiting for you on my blog!

rebturtle said:

So if he is truly (twoooo wuv....!) your bicycle, are you going to change the name of the blog?

Here's to hoping he's a brand-name full suspension mountain bike and not a cheap Chinese Huffy knock off!! ;)

Joyce said:

Unacceptable!
I can't believe you think there's a limit to Owen smellin' stories!

Jessica said:

SQUEEEEE!
Yes! Go do more of that kissing! =)

Gigi said:

Yah for you, Fish! He's a lucky guy! Congrats!

Kim said:

Hurray!

You are now obligated to tell all of us where you found your uber-dork and how long this has been going on.

Will he get a nickname?

say-ra said:

Hey love. Tell those folks he is brand name in moccasins! I am so good, but don't tell Dustin, I am retiring after this perfection I have created. XOXO

Kim said:

I meant a nickname for your blog, not the nickname you already told us about in the post. Just to be clear!

Anna said:

I am new to your blog and I love it! Congrats on the new bike. I'm all about calling my boyfriend a dork. My fave is when he is organizing his friends I call him a Nerd Herder: One that herds nerds. I will definitely call him The Dork Lord at least twice this weekend.

Laura said:

Hmmm, for a blog about dating, you seem very reluctant to talk about your dating life. Don't get me wrong, I totally understand that you might like to keep some or all of that part of your life private. In light of that, however, it just sees odd that this blog continues to be styled as a 'dating' or 'love' blog.

Suzie said:

duh. Kissing is better than all else, sometimes including the stuff it can lead to.....

Here's hoping you have that whichever way you like it!!!

Jen said:

I knew it! Awesome! And...I so heart dorks. Just like my momma said I would when I was in high school.

lawyerchik said:

Good for you, Fish! I'm glad someone is getting a little smoochin' this holiday!! :) Enjoy - dish when you can!!

Molly Doe said:

Tee-hee. The Dork Lord.

Hoorah for kissing! I love kissing! Plus excitement over you having somebody to kiss. Here's luck to you and the Dork Lord.

Amber said:

Yay! Does he have a cute Southern accent?

SINgleGIRL said:

Congrats! So here's my big question - does the new guy know about your blog? And if so when did you tell him?

Lala said:

Because of you I'm gonna log off and go kiss my little nephews who are downstairs!!!

Sweet Melissa said:

Well, no offense, but I enjoy kissing more than reading so if you keep smooching and I find someone that I enjoy making out with more than once then we might not find each other necessary...

Such a sad little thought but we both know that is our eventual destiny...

DallasFunLover said:

I think this makes you a technie necker! Enjoy every lip-locking minute!

giuseppina said:

ya! congrats :)
i've noticed that i too haven't blogged as much since getting a boyfriend. funny how that works out...

GYL said:

Argh - all of this talking of kissing is making me.....anxious. Maybe I should get a boyfriend too. Do you think my husband will mind?

Doris said:

Good for you. Enjoy!

Howard said:

There is hope for the rest of us "Dork Lords"...Praise the Baby J!!

Nery said:

Wow, that's awesome, you're gonna have yourself a kiss under the mistletoe! :)

Sara said:

I'm so happy for you. You go gurl!
