To anonymous:

First--thanks to all who left comments! So glad that's working. Your help is appreciated much.
Second--the post:

Dear Anonymous NFL Picks comment leaver-

Please, please, please contact me.
Your amazingly beautiful run on sentence* has thrilled me to no end and you used "and" six times (if I counted correctly).

I am so in awe. There are butterflies in my stomach. I am sorry I thought it was spam and deleted your first comment under this post. Please forgive me. You clearly did your research and worked hard on your product.

(Other readers, if you don't know why I am saying this, please check here under interests. --I have added my love of run-ons.)

We must help you with your cause.
Especially if you keep writing the way you do.

And, please know-I am being for real.
I am a geek and believe that anyone who can pull off a sentence like that deserves to be heard.

Thank you,
the mrs.

    Sorry about the crazy email mess! :( Hazards of blogging, I suppose!

Before we get into this, I want you to know something about little mr. j.  He is a go getter.  He makes things happen.

Last Saturday I cut my boys' hair.  (Even my mr.'s.) It's a selfish economic deal really.  I save money on their hair so I can spend it on mine. The clippers are easy and they usually come out looking pretty handsome. It works.
(Side note:  The clippers I bought this time have the coolest eyebrow attachment.  We're keeping very good care of my mr.'s old man bushy brows.)
It's a very fun time.  Lots of interesting conversation. And it all takes place in my bathroom. 
My bathroom, where earlier in the day a tweener son decided to go through some drawers that belong to me.  His mother. Who is female.
This is how the conversation went: my mr., "little mr. b, why don't you ask your mom what those things you found in her drawer are for?"
little mr. b (with- I can't believe you said that dad- eyes), "mom, …

We got spammed

Should I be so excited?
Probably not.

It was a really long comment that made no sense at all about NFL picks.
Too bad it was so silly,
We might have all learned something.

Anyway-
I deleted it & changed the comment process to add that step of typing in the extra words.
(Ok, really I should know what that's called, but I am too tired tonight and don't feel like educating myself.)

Again, anyway-
Last time I did something like this, we had problems in the comments. Some of you couldn't leave them.
And that was sad.  Not that many of you comment much-which is fine-but if you'd care to-I'd love to "listen" to them. I do love hearing from you.

So, I'm going to do a test comment and if you are so inclined, would you mind doing the same?
And I promise that this is not me trying to see who is reading BV. 
I promise I am not testing you by asking you to test.

I am thankful you are reading.

And hope you come back often.

PS-If you do have trouble leaving a c…
