My husband and I are planning on being there on Saturday. We were hoping to spend Friday night in Salt Lake and that may still happen, so if we’re there we’ll go to the blogging thing on Friday night. If not, maybe we’ll see people Saturday.

I’m planning to be there as much as possible. I’m looking forward to seeing you all again, but please note that there will be no karaoke at the bloggernacle party.

If I may, I would like to point out #356 in the program, come and see a short film, listen to great respondents, and participate in the discussion. It will be great! Come one and come all.

Margaret–Re Comment #19. You know, dear Margaret, ever since that show-stopping red head first appeared in my classroom, everything you’ve written has brought me pleasure and delight. But this recent comment. . . . well, you certainly know how to make an old girl’s heart glow.
Thank you, and warmest wishes for Saturday afternoon, which seems, from the program, to be the designated Margaret Young Day (panels # 356, 362, 373; also conducting calesthentics in the corridor as time permits). P.S. I’ll see CWC’s ante and raise it 10.

20 Drats. If ya’ll see my letter to the SLC Trib “definitive proof that polygamy is alive and well in so-called “mainstreet” Mormonism, Darius Grey and his sister-wife, Margaret Young: Exposed!” Please ignore. My bad. I blame Kevin Barney.

Ha ha, yes, Margaret, BiV is right, to me Darius only has one name, like Elvis.

Margaret, I’m pretty sure Kevin was referring to the one-name Darius, known to all in the Bloggernacle. I sure knew who he was talking about. But thanks for alerting us to this phenomenon, I’ll certainly be more careful about it from now on.

Kevin–note that you’ve listed Darius and me as “Darius and Margaret Young.” He is Darius Gray. We get a bit sensitive about our last names, because sometimes people don’t realize that we are not married–to each other. Each of us has a spouse. Yesterday, when I was making a hotel reservation, the desk clerk said on the phone, “Hello, this is Gray.” I mis-heard it, and thought he said, “Hello, Mrs. Gray.” I said, “I’m NOT Mrs. Gray.”
But I like the fact that you made him Mr. Young instead of making me Mrs. Gray.
Or has Darius attained the kind of fame only Cher, Houdini, and Madonna know? The one-name man?

I just had such a fun moment. I read that Elouise was coming to Sunstone and actually jumped in my chair. I don’t think I’ve done that since I was about four. First reaction: HOORAY!!!! Second reaction: Oh crap, now the pressure is on. I’ve got to say something worthwhile. Maybe I can just quote from her…

I loved your hymn sing last year. Don’t talk *too* much this time around…
