I am actually listed right under Dooce on Alltop’s list of the top mom bloggers.
Color me speechless. Dooce, Heather B. Armstrong, is my personal hero. So it’s very surreal to see my name next to hers. If you haven’t checked out Alltop yet - get over there. Could be just a random shuffling order fluke, but I’ll enjoy seeing my name next to hers while I can. Thanks Guy!
Some other exciting news... iHeartSingleParents.com has asked me to lead their Dating & Advice group (note, I’m a dating expert not a relationship expert. Ha!). And Loovya.com, a new online dating site, has asked me to be a feature blogger, check out my posts here.
I still have yet to make a penny off of this blog, largely because I’ve been too lazy to activate my membership with the BlogAd network, which a dear friend and fellow blogger sponsored me to join. I’m just too busy writing, being a mommy and working full-time to get that going but it is definitely on the horizon.
All of this excitement is thanks to you … so my dear readers, I have a little perk to pass your way. [click to continue…]

If you didn’t see Dooce’s interview on the Today Show, watch it here.
You’ll hear Kathie Lee Gifford admit she doesn’t even use computers and then proceed to tell Heather B. Armstrong, “I have mixed emotions about it (her blog), I have to be honest with you – you seem like a lovely lady – but there’s something that worries me about it…the safety issue of putting your kids online.”
Heather (who looked hot!) then tries to throw it back on her…”well, you live in New York City and you walk down the street…”
Then they cut Dooce off and ended the story. So far no post from Dooce but she did say this on Twitter right after the interview:
“I am not going to twitter what I’m thinking right now. I AM SHOWING RESTRAINT, INTERNET”
Can’t wait to read her slam.
And by the way, here’s Kathie Lee Gifford’s “blog” – which we can now safely assume is a total fake. Too bad the producers didn’t prep her before the show – “Kathie Lee, don’t forget – you have your own blog.” Oops.
Long live mommy blogs and Dooce.
UPDATE – Check out Dooce’s interview on Nightline. Much, much better.
