Admit it: you’ve totally got crushes on other bloggers. That’s kind of a part of the magic of the blogosphere. You discover a lot of kindred spirits out there, and even the ones who might not be “kindred” to you at least understand your obsession with blogging.
So this week’s Girl Talk Thursday, we’re talking about which bloggers would be your “Ring, Fling, Swing” trio. Who do you like so much you’d put a ring on em? Who would be your choice for a passionate fling? And if you wanted to get one blogger out of the picture and steal their life, who would you swing with?
I’ve thought about this one a lot. I mean, there’s one blogger out there (*coughMariacough*) who could fill all three of those positions, but that would be too easy (also: kinda lame. also: kinda creepy.)
So without further ado, here are my choices.
RING

Messponential herself, Colleen. She just seems like she’d be the bomb diggity to have as a wife. Empathic, loving, open-minded and with a beautiful soul, she’s totally the ying to my yang. The number of times this lady has calmed me down when I’ve been upset or listened (virtually) to me crying about one drama or another cannot even be numbered. We would probably have one of those marriages where people look at us, shake their heads, and whisper to one another wondering why Colleen would ever saddle herself with someone like me, but we would totally make it work.
FLING
Cristin of Tiptoeing through the Tulips. She is HILARIOUS, foul-mouthed, and yet despite that all, surprisingly touching at times. She regularly deals with dead and dying people, then comes home to her two adorable children (and husband, whatever though!) who sound like they maybe kinda raise some hell sometimes, and pours some wine. She has this awesome hippy past that she sometimes writes really moving pieces about, and mostly, I’m just pretty positive we would have a wonderful quickie fling together. Also, she used to live in Canada, so when I make light fun of all their quirks up here, she’d totally get it.
SWING
Maria of Mommy Melee. One: I want to eat her kids. Two: I think I might want to eat her husband. However, if her husband had a blog and I knew about it, I’d probably swing with him so I could just have Maria and her kids. Then we’d live happily ever in Florida (I know what side my bread is buttered on!) with our dark-haired, dark-eyed brood of children. Maria and I would be work-at-home moms doing all sorts of sweet ass, top dollar freelance writing (not the crappy website copy for pennies that everyone in the world wants these days) by day, working on our novels by night.
But I mean, if I HAD to deal with living with @zennmora instead, well… I guess I could do that (hello, bestill my beating heart).
So now that I’m done revealing my internet crushes… how about you?



Oh, I’d totally swing with MommyMelee. Her kids are soooo cute!

Can we have a commune? I’ll do the laundry.

I would totally swing with Maria too. Maybe we could have a three-way spoon, you me and her?
Also? No one would EVER ask me “why would you saddle yourself with her?” if we were hitched. I LOVE YOU and I know how to kick major ass and people would know that I’d bitch slap them for even questioning my choice!! You are wonderful, amazing, funny, insightful, adorable, and thoughtful friend and anyone who would ever say otherwise, they have me to contend with. Consider me your internetz-wifey. k?
You are awesome. (P.S. I didn’t play today b/c I have too much craziness going on here and couldn’t wrap my brain around it. Kids are sick. Trying to close on a re-fi on our house, work, the holidays. I want to crawl in a corner and go to sleep until Dec 25th. Plus? I heard this story on NPR this morning that completely made my brain stop and my head shake.)

I want in on the commune. I’m good with making toasty alcoholic beverages in a slow cooker. And baked goods.
