I’d like to introduce you to my blog wife, Mrs. Amy Thoughts Appear. Or is it Ms.? Or Amy Fix-It-Or-Deal-Appear? Craaaaap. We didn’t discuss how Amy felt about changing her name. Or maybe I should change my name?
Let’s just stick with Amy at Fix It or Deal.
I can’t tell you how happy I was when I got the email from Thoughtsy letting me know that she had chosen me as her blog wife. Seriously, I can’t tell you. I got a reputation to keep, ya know. Anyway, let’s just say that I was “overly pleased,” and I may have needed a tissue.
We’re quite perfect for each other. I like zombies; she likes zombies. I like movies; she likes movies. I like cupcakes; she bakes cupcakes. It’s a match made in cyberspace.
So, what’s the best way for me to express my devotion to my new blog wife? With an homage, of course.
Without further ado, I present: What Thoughts Appear’s Blog Has Taught Me
- Pop-Tarts have a very loyal following, and flavor preferences are a very personal thing.
- If you pay close enough attention, you can learn something from any movie. Even one about arctic Nazi zombies.
- Florida has an amazing wolf sanctuary where the wolves will walk right up and sit on your lap. (And I experienced it for myself!)
- There is such as thing as “fake pants.”
- The US Army Physical Fitness Test is something that I never, ever want to attempt and push-ups are from the devil.
- If you eat something that is amazingly tasty, it probably has crack in it.
- There are a lot more steps to riding a mechanical bull than I ever imagined possible.
- David Zincenko is quite possibly the most miserable man on the planet and really, truly just needs to eat a funnel cake and live a little. Just do it, David. You know you wanna.
Many thanks to my blog wife for letting me take over her blog for a day. But, I guess what’s yours is mine now, right? Except your Pop-Tarts. I would never take those. It’s always good to know your boundaries in a marriage.
Amy, I will totally share my Pop-Tarts with you. That’s why they come in a 2-pack…for sharing.

Another coincidence — I have had that exact thought about David Zincenko, verbatim. I think if we all focus our concentration (and Jedi powers) on that thought, we could force him on a funnel cake binge. Wouldn’t that be fun?
June 24th, 2011 at 7:59 am
“David, this is the funnel cake you are looking for.”
I think it could work!
June 24th, 2011 at 7:55 am
[…] blog. Well, today is the day for that post. Please go pay her blog a visit and read my homage to my new blog wife. (Can you believe all these guest posts lately? I kinda feel like a rock […]

Congrats to the new bloggy couple!
June 24th, 2011 at 12:58 pm
Thanks, Brooke!
June 24th, 2011 at 8:02 am
Thanks for adding the links!
And we are so psychically linked! I named my post pointing people over here “sharing is caring” before I even read your comment about sharing your Pop-Tarts. Next thing you know, we will be finishing each other’s –
June 24th, 2011 at 8:06 am
Sentences…OH MY GOSH!
June 24th, 2011 at 8:23 am
You’re wearing matching outfits, aren’t you?
June 24th, 2011 at 12:58 pm
Maybe….
June 24th, 2011 at 12:58 pm
Totally . . .
June 24th, 2011 at 1:11 pm
HOLY CRAP! Look at the comment time! We both commented at 12:58!
June 24th, 2011 at 8:10 am
Dear Thoughts,
I am Fix It’s Mom. Welcome to the family. Hope you have the courage a family gettogether. As a loyal reader of Fix It’s blog, I guess you know what you are in for. You bring the poptarts, I like mine without frosting and they are hard to find.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:00 pm
Hi, mom! Please don’t scare away my new wife. I haven’t even gotten the ring yet!
June 24th, 2011 at 1:01 pm
Awwww…Thanks, Mom. (Am I allowed to call you ‘Mom’?)
Do you like strawberry or blueberry unfrosted Pop-Tarts? Or maybe a box of each?
June 25th, 2011 at 12:44 pm
I’m big on blueberry; however, I will eat either with gusto. You can call me Mom, but have not earned the right to “Mommy Dearest”. Yet.
June 24th, 2011 at 8:19 am
I am now coming to accept this Blog Wedding… It was just a matter of pouring a little Soylent Green on my Envy Monster. I will grow. I swear.
Amy, I can see you have learned many things from “Thoughtsy” (you have pet names for each other…not jealous…not jealous…)
most importantly you can finish each others sentences like siamese twins. It is a match made in Blog Heaven.
BTW~ who is GOD here? Do we worship anyone? should I wear a special hat? what time is bloggochurch? Do they serve poptarts?
June 24th, 2011 at 1:03 pm
I’m glad you’re coming around!
June 24th, 2011 at 1:04 pm
We’re omni-denominational here, so whatever the diety of your choice requires is appropriate.
And, of course we serve Pop-Tarts.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:14 pm
Amy, I’m glad you answered the religion part of the question. Although I suspect you maybe be god….
June 24th, 2011 at 1:26 pm
Oh no. I couldn’t handle that kind of pressure!
June 27th, 2011 at 8:56 am
Well, I was raised and confirmed Catholic, and they serve you those crisp little white wafers in church (after you confess your evils and cleanse your soul) so I guess mini-poptarts should be the reward for cleansing our souls.
Technical question: do Zombies have souls?
June 24th, 2011 at 8:44 am
Woof Woof, Nikita here…..I can’t believe that Esme did not make it on your new blog wifes list. Ya can’t forget us four-legged friends!
June 24th, 2011 at 1:05 pm
I know! I realised after I sent it off that I neglected to mention Esme. But, it’s always tricky when there is a step-child situation, so I didn’t want to rock the boat.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:19 pm
I love that you called Esme a stepchild. I feel the love here.
I didn’t even think about potential stepchildren issues. I hope Esme gets along with your dogs.
I remember being totally impressed by your dogs’ potty training.
June 24th, 2011 at 4:56 pm
My dogs are big whimps. In about a week Esme will have them bringing her food and making them fetch her cat toys. Which is fine because they need the exercise.
June 24th, 2011 at 8:50 am
Real nice Amy. Way to gloat in front of us all. Good thing you like zombies so much or I might have to move in on yous. And I notice you’re willing to share your PopTarts even though Thoughtsie won’t. Hmmm… I’m no counselor but I sense problems over that in the future.
btw, you all need to stop by my site. It’s International You Day for the big repost yourself event.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:07 pm
I said I’d share! I said I’m a giver, don’t you remember? The only thing I don’t share are old school pics.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:08 pm
Sorry. Didn’t mean to gloat, but you know how annoying newlyweds are. And, we’ll work out any Pop-Tart sharing issues, don’t you worry.
June 24th, 2011 at 9:36 am
Waaaaaiiiiitttttt. You’re not supposed to eat both pop tarts? Shit.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:08 pm
I think you only share for the first year of marriage, and then you can have both except on anniversaries. I’m new to this, so I’m not sure.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:08 pm
That sounds about right. Maybe add an exemption for birthdays in there somewhere.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:15 pm
Good call. Birthdays. And special zombie days.
June 24th, 2011 at 11:40 am
It’s so nice when a couple of really nice girls get married, particularly when they are so perfectly matched. Congratulations!
June 24th, 2011 at 1:10 pm
I’ve always been a firm believer that you can’t let things like distance or lack of ever having met get in the way of true happiness.
June 24th, 2011 at 1:20 pm
Will your wedding cake be made of Pop Tarts and have little zombies on it? 😉
June 24th, 2011 at 4:57 pm
Well, it will now!
June 24th, 2011 at 1:57 pm
first of all, what is this b.s
i was here first.
apparently, vows mean nothing to some people.
June 24th, 2011 at 4:58 pm
Woah. I didn’t know she had another family somewhere. She told me those were “business trips.”
June 25th, 2011 at 6:08 am
Actually…Amy was here first. I have the dates of comments to prove it. You snooze you lose!
June 25th, 2011 at 8:49 am
HIlarious!!!
I also think push-ups are from the devil, and anything that tastes good has crack in it. I’m gonna go check out your wife’s blog now. Great post!
June 25th, 2011 at 12:36 pm
You can just never go wrong with mechanical bulls, zombies, or pop tarts! All the best to your marriage! 🙂
July 5th, 2011 at 5:28 pm
I missed the wedding. I’m not happy about that but puhleese tell me that I did not miss the reception. There is some dancing to be done and I fully expect an invite. It doesn’t need to have a plus one and I plan on being a third wheel. And, if all else fails and the two of you manage to loose me at the reception, I can always bust out my pillow pet. Love each of your posts on the others blogs. Totally dig ’em. Let me know where you need me to email my address. Thanks! 🙂
July 5th, 2011 at 6:50 pm
You can been our flower girl/maid of honor/best man all in one. And I’ll make sure that you catch the bouquet!
