It was surprising for a few reasons:
- Great writing style
- Comedic delivery
- Well chosen subject matter
- I had no idea that it existed
- Oh yeah, it was written by MY SISTER!
My sister is a far better writer than I ever knew. I'll let those of you who don't know my eldest sister (Rachael)in on a little secret - She has a long track record of being an introvert. This blog is so far outside her bubble that I was shocked when she told me that it existed --- I was floored when I saw how much content she already had --- I was blown away as I went through a string of emotions (Laughing at one moment, concerned the next, and then on the verge of tears ... only go return to laughing again). I mean, come on! How cute is this?!
She has done a great job of establishing the theme of her blog and is doing an amazing job of interlinking previous posts to easily bring new readers up to speed on things she refers back to.
I really admire my sister for breaking out of her shell -- I've been impressed with how much she has changed over the past 15 or so years... I remember when she was afraid to make a phone call, didn't like to talk in front of strangers, and would much rather curl up on the couch and read a book than engage in conversation with a large group of people. After college, she worked at a bank and a call center -- those were two jobs I NEVER expected to see her in, yet she did them both - and she did them well!
Now, here she is... Opening up to the whole world and doing an AMAZING job of it. My cyber hat goes off to you, sis. Keep it up -- I think the best is yet to come and I'm brimming with anticipation.
I've been a long time fan of blogs from Scott Adams and The Hobo Teacher for many of the same reasons that I now enjoy the hell out of my Sister's Blog.
I highly recommend you check it out -- it makes for a good read.

Just to clarify . . . I'm still terrified of the phone.
Ha! Now you've got a visitor back from your sister's blog :)
Just to say I really like to be a witness of sibling love and respect.
Something that is not all too common these days. So when I come across it, I can't help but like it. A lot. You go, both of you.

The only thing that annoys me is that Rachael's blog has more followers! :-P
Obviously I'm not the only one who thinks it's a good read.
