1) Yes.

2) I’m writing that right now.

3) She’s right, Phil.

4) Just call your local Mormon temple, and they’ll send some nice men over to talk with you about your religion.

5) No kidding.

6)Write too much? Is that even possible?

7)Double Dog Dare you.

8)Well, that takes all the fun out of #7.

9)The photo project. Yeah, that’s been a lot harder than I thought it would be. I had an idea for your request for snow, but that wasn’t going to work out nearly as well as I had hoped. If I can ever get the photos, I’ll post them, but for now, I think it’s pretty much on indefinite hiatus. We’ll see about posting some stuff to Flickr, though.

10) Shin guards wouldn’t suit me well, being so far away, but you’re more than welcome to send me whatever money you’d be spending on shin guards!

2) It’s tomorrow, and I see no Dumb Thing #2.

3) Phil, there are so many fantastic writers in the blogosphere that I literally would have to quit my job to keep up with just my favorites. I know this because my Google Reader went from empty to swamped on my first day of employment. (Still, props to Tyler for keeping the standards high!)

4) The fact that the thought crossed my mind, “Oh, hey, I want a sales rep to play with!” says scary things about how lonely it is to live 1000 miles away from one’s friends.

5) lolz! Stupid rep.

6) I should generally be banned from making comments. I write too much.

7) I double-dare me to keep going until point #10.

8) I accept my own dare.

9) Weren’t you supposed to have a photo project going on? Weren’t you going to post some pictures to Flickr finally? Weren’t you going to come visit me, too? What happened to all of these things? Why are you slacking on life? If you blame your massive brain, I’ll kick you in the shin.

10) Maybe I should give my friends shin guards for Christmas this year.

Phil: Well, you know. What with ethos and all, I figured I might as well pretend like I’m an English major even online, right?

Mom: Hey, you’ve finally stopped lurking! And I’m glad you found this one funny. There’ll be another one up later today, with another dumb thing I’ve done, so stay tuned!
