			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p style="text-align: justify;">IN MY MIND, I can hear Britney Spears singing that song clad in her hot revealing body hugging outfit dancing with a bunch of energetic back-up dudes. In my mind, I can hear the song and it makes my head jiggle while I am typing. And in my mind, I can hear the song and it makes me hum a soft tune. For a moment, I wonder if I still have the “moves” I used to have when I was a bit younger.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A few days back, I committed myself to Vienna to co-author her <a title="new co-blogger's having cold feet" href="http://www.mypinknotes.com/index.php/2008/05/21/new-co-blogger%e2%80%99s-having-a-cold-feet/" target="_blank">MyPinkNotes.com </a>out of sheer curiosity to try out new things. It’s not really a big deal. Vienna and I – we have a special connection… virtually and otherwise. We met in a very unconventional way and in an instant I guess we clicked, both literally and figuratively. So, I have no regrets with the decision I made. In fact, I really enjoy writing for My Pink Notes. Did I tell you that, “pink” is my favorite color? Never mind.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Anyway, <a title="frustrated writer strikes again" href="http://ruthinian-gregoire.blogspot.com/2008/05/blogging-comrades.html" target="_blank">co-authorship </a>is totally a new thing to me because I always do things “solo”. Not because I am a loner. Nope, I love companionship [that is why I had to take that last train ride to Matrimony Avenue just last year]. Not because I am a reclusive loser. Nah, I appreciate camaraderie with friends and relatives [even with some friendly strangers]. Not because I am an introvert. No way, I used to be the life of the party [oh, those days].</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">LAST NIGHT, Vienna talked me out again into another blogging endeavor. This time, I didn’t jump right into it without thinking. You see, Vienna has a certain charm that you cannot resist and before you know it, you will end up in a blind alley&#8230; so be warned. She is a charmer and it is her secret weapon&#8230; so beware. She is a pro&#8230; so be scared. Good thing, I am nippy and I can smell danger like a wicked fox. [I wonder why my power didn’t work the first time.] Last night, Vienna asked me again to co-author her other “baby” – BizarreMarriage.com. She was as sweet and innocent as ever. I didn’t even see it coming. She asked me in as-a-matter-of-factly way, that I almost said “yes” again. Good thing, I was cautious that time. And last night, I told Vienna… LET ME SLEEP ON IT. And she agreed.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">GUESS WHAT? She won again. So here I am again, knocking my brain off to come up with my first post for this website to have a head’s start. I cannot promise you anything. I am just a simple <a title="a carpenter's Wife's tool box" href="http://ruthi-thoughts.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">stay-at-home wife </a>and an “alien” step-mother. She said I have a lot to share here. She said I can do anything here. And she said I should feel at home here. [That’s how she operates.]</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I cannot promise you guys anything because I know you love Vienna and her writings. I cannot guarantee that my writing style will be as good as hers. I cannot assure you that my ideas are as brilliant as hers. But if there is one thing that I am sure of, Vienna trusts me and so, I have a job to do.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Oh well what the heck… let’s give it a shot and blog on. ©</p>
