Although blogger Jay Joslin has had one of the more interesting local blogs, his Bird On The Moon has also suffered from a bit of an identity crisis. What, exactly, was it about? Politics? Writing? Spirituality? Personal insight? It was all of these, and none of them. It was almost like four separate, but highly interesting, blogs that all managed to have the same name.
Local author and blog-goddess Edgy Mama recently posted a couple of blog entries about that dreaded parental duty; coping with a sick kid. Here’s a sample:
“As I warmed my cold nose against the frying pan of his neck, he asked if he could go back to school tomorrow. “I don’t think so,” I said.
There was a pause. “If I don’t go to school, are they going to put you in jail, like those guys told me?”
I guess the truant officers have been putting the fear of God and prison into the pre-Kindergarteners.”
