Don't you sometimes wish

...that your blog was completely anonymous so you could post thoughts and happenings that were not, shall we say, representative of your suburban, mommy, middle-class, mostly conservative, typically nice, married, Christian self?

...that people would drive with the "other cheek"?

...that you could control the weather?

...that children came with an "off" button? Mute?

...that husbands came with an "off" button?

...that you came with an "off" button?

...that we could still banish all criminals to a continent far far away from ourselves?

...that pimples didn't exist?

...that life was free?

...that Pei Wei delivered?

...that God's will and your will matched?

...that air conditioners and cars never broke down?

...that people we love will always stay with us?

...that you were as patient with your children as you wish you were?

...that people would get your humor?

...that milk chocolate was as good for you as dark chocolate and in ten times the quantity?

...that you could escape worry?

...that the best parts of your old self would be preserved?

...that you regularly made God proud?

...that you could communicate to your kids how very much you love them?

...that laundry was done via magic?

...that you remembered to put the cream puffs out for the party you had so you wouldn't be forced to eat them all singlehandedly?

...that everything you could ever want to do was five minutes away?

...that you could always and forever protect your kids?

...that I would knock it off already?

The criminal thing - isn't that Australia? To bad we can't keep sending them there..

And there's nothing wrong with starting your own, completely private blog that no one can read. *whistle*

That you had your own Starbuck's Barista in your kitchen and could fufill your S-bucks craving at ALL times!

What some people do is they get a "Constance Blog"---an anonymous blog to supplement their regular one, without being connected to it. Then if they have something they'd like to say anonymously, they have a place to do it.

To the very first one - YES - & I am seriously considering it. ;)
