Thankful for Jill's 15 minutes of fame

My wife Jill was quoted in a front page article today in the Washington Post titled "Spotting Trends in Blog Buzz “. You can see the article here. It was also reprinted on MSNBC here.

Anyway, I am thankful for Jill's 15 minutes of fame.

Thankful for Friends

I mentioned on my If I were President blog that I was disappointed that Amrican Idol and LOST were overlapping in time. Well,two of our friends taped the shows for us, so now we will be able to see them both in their entirety.

I am very thankful for friends.

Thankful for Insurance

I am very thankful for Medical Insurance. This morning I went to get blood work done, and I didn't have my insurance card with me, so I have to go back some other morning. It was a bit frustrating, but on my way back I realized how thankful I am to have insurance.

I have diabetes, and I don't know how I would afford to cover all my medical expenses without insurance. I am very, very, very thankful for the medical insurance that my company provides me with.

Thankful the Winter Olympics are Over

As much as I enjoyed the Winter Olympics and as much money as my wife made from her blog on the Winter Olympics, I am still very thankful that the Winter Olympics are over. It was a lot of work for my wife to constantly write about the Olympics. But it was definitely worth while.

Anyway, I am thankful the Winter Olympics are over. Congratulations to all of the athletes. It was fun watching all of you try your best.
