Blog Envy...It's so Sad for Me.

Well, I may be a bit dramatic, but I have a serious case of blog envy. Yes--my life is pathetic. I have been an official blogger for like...a week. And already I am obsessed with the fact that all of my friends' blogs look like adorable scrapbook pages and mine...yep that's right, the free template offered by blogspot. I don't even have a good picture of me uploaded b/c that would require me: 1. showering, 2. blow-drying and straightening my hair, and 3. putting on make-up AND a respectable outfit (at least from the waist up), then 4. getting another adult to take my picture.

I know its possible to pimp mine out a bit--yet, I dont know how. AND if you know me at all, you know that it is quite an accomplishment for me to even have figured out how to not only create a blog, write entries, but also post pictures and add the url's of my friends' blogs. SO--I need help. I found this cute little website called cutestblogontheblock.com it's a free site that offers tips and cute backgrounds, etc. Yet still, I cannot figure out how to do it and I get a bit stressed even thinking much about it. Basically, I want someone to do it for me. I don't want tips on how to do it. I want you to come to my house and do it for me while I serve you coffee or diet coke (I'll even open the can and pour it over ice for you!). I'm willing to watch your kids, cook for you once a week for a month, do a real scrapbook of your kids. Whatever. So basically don't reply unless you want to take on my pathetic pro-bono blog case and make it snazzy.

Just so you know I do live in somewhat of a reality where I am not expecting anyone to do this, except maybe my sister or my husband but only because I will whine until they do. The first step to recovery is admitting your problem.
