The Truth about us Bloggers

My sister-in-law put this on her blog, so I had to copy it and let everyone else see it. It was just too funny to pass up.

Culture Vulture: Parody blog truly 'Blessed'

It's SOOOOO good to be Tiffany/Amber/Megan/Nicole. TAMN, as she's known on her blog, "Seriously, So Blessed," is young, LDS, and quite happily married to Jordan/Jason/Wes/Taylor (or JJWT, for short) - and as of last week, the blissfully ecstatic couple found out they're going to have a baby. (TAMN announced this on her blog with a picture of a green Jell-O-and-pineapple-filled casserole dish with "We're pregnant" written in Reddi-Wip.) TAMN blogs about her pregnancy, complete with a downloaded widget that shows what the fetus probably looks like. She blogs about the talk she gave at church. She has her playlist updated with the latest tracks: Taylor Swift, Colbie Caillat, Tim McGraw, Miley Cyrus and Janice Kapp Perry. And she raves about her favorite things, which include the Cheesecake Factory, scented candles and the literary output of Stephenie Meyer. (Only 17 days until "Breaking Dawn" is released!) And, of course, she loves being married to JJWT. "Marriage is COMPLETE BLISS and we have had non-stop fun since we married! No, since we met! No, since we were BORN! No, since the PRE-MORTAL EXISTENCE! Couldn't get any funner," TAMN wrote last week. Yes, seriouslysoblessed.blogspot.com is a parody - an astutely sharp spoof of a recent Web phenomenon: the married Mormon blog, in which LDS women (and it's almost always women) write about their family doings, post photos of their kids, and decorate with backgrounds, musical play- lists and widgets. It's scrapbooking in a form that everybody, from your neighbors in the ward to people on the other side of the world, can see. The real TAMN, whom I contacted via e-mail, isn't ready to reveal herself, but she dropped some biographical details: Yes, she's a woman ("it is truly amazing how many people are convinced it's written by a guy," she wrote), 25, LDS, living in Utah, married, and a recent mom - "a FSAHM (fakeout stay at home mom)" because in August she returns to grad school. She has blogged about her own life, but started "Seriously, So Blessed" in June as a joke for friends. As word has spread (Holly Mullen, editor of "City Weekly," clued me in to it), the response has been overwhelmingly positive. "Most of the people linking to it," TAMN told me, "say things on their own blogs in the same tone (unintentionally?) as the fake one, like 'Holy cow you guys! I'm seriously addicted to this new blog! It's making fun of all of us and I am way guilty too but it is SOOO funny bc it's way true!! Don't be offended!!' "

If you wanna look at the blog, I recommend it, you'll get a good laugh:
