Get Yourself a Blog Already

Larry is in California this week. (Thankfully I have all of you to fill the void of my evenings!)  Anyway, I just got an email sent from his cell phone.  This is not in itself very strange.  He knows I'm more likely to be at my computer than I am to hear my cell.  He sent a photo he'd taken.  Also not strange.  I often get pictures of ridiculous things he sees for my entertainment.  But what I got was this:

with the caption, "They fit just right!"

Let me back up to give a small amount of context.  Larry was packing for the trip and opened a new package of socks.  The label read, for shoe sizes 6 to 12.  Larry started to gripe about such a large range of feet that were all expected to fit into this particular sock, adding to his frustration that socks never seem to fit him well.  I pointed out that his size 9 foot was smack in the middle of that, which was a good sign.  And I guess it was indeed.

Ok, is it me, or does this seem like just the kind of photo and story we'd run across as a post from one of our bloggy companions?  In fact that thought struck me so hard that it was a little of a turn-off.  It seemed, I don't know, feminine of him.  (Not that I find blogging feminine, CaJoh, but there is certainly a feminine style of blogging.  I don't see a post like this on your blog.)  I mean, what's next, a picture of pouty-faced-Larry holding a up stripped screw?  Maybe a fresh-out-of-the-salon photo--how do you like my new hair-cut? 

Larry has mentioned more than once the idea that he start blogging.  I'm not sure if that would annoy me or please me.  I don't think he even knows my url.  If I want him to see something on my blog I have to show him myself.  Well, maybe he just wouldn't have Mormon Mommy Bloggers on his blog roll.  I might have to "pay" him to list mine.  Of course, I think he had ideas of posting insightful and humorous bits of wisdom rather than pictures of his feet.
