I'm a failed Catholic, communist and husband now living in poverty in Melbourne, Australia, who has lurked here for a long time because I think your blog is a hoot. Only ever left one other comment - which was that your blog's portrayal of a 30-something reluctantly returning home and, in spite of herself and all the frustrations she encounters, re-bonding with her family, is the stuff of a great sitcom. And Hollywood might be even more attracted now that a feel-good ending possibly looms with you finding a significant other to fall in love with. Mind you, I'm not sure that will make for quite such lively blog posts. Pants, no not Ian, the ex Mormon from England.

Well sort of over. I'm still holding out hope that prop 8 won't pass. Your mom is so darn funny sometimes. I'm going to have to keep an eye out for flight deals to SLC so I can come experience it firsthand. I’m very glad its over. Well sort of over. I’m still holding out hope that prop 8 won’t pass.

If last night had gone differently, well...maybe not. Heh. My (Republican) mother and I have already had the "why did you hate Palin so much" conversation this morning? I did not lack for ammunition on THAT one. Today, I can laugh at that. If last night had gone differently, well…maybe not. Heh.
