During the course of conversation she let it slip that since my sister and I started all this BlogHer talk, she's been reading our blogs.
My reaction:
- Uh-oh. My mom reads my blog?
- Quick! Is there was anything on here I'd be embarrassed to have her see?
- You know what? I'm fine with it.

I felt the same! I asked her if she was reading my blog and she said something to the effect of, "Oh Occasionally." I use Google Analytics and my views from where Mom lives trump any others. Oh Occasionally?
Went through and dumped some of the crappy posts I had.
Also, I got the "Some of the people that you follow are really good writers."
Felt like a back-handed compliment. Felt like I needed approval of some sort. Hello, baggage!
Sorry this is so long... This is turning into a blog post.
She said that to me too. I think she's just exploring the whole "blog" thing, thinking it was kind of like facebook, and here it's a group of online essayists. I agree with her, the people I follow are good writers.
