Happy Monday Y’all! I am so excited to be teaming up with the lovely Samantha from It’s All In The Details today! Since I just got married, and she is tying the knot really soon {I’m pretty positive I will be crashing her wedding… I mean, she doesn’t know it but I’ve already got my name down on the waiting list!} we figured we should give the hubbies a crash course on they can expect as the husband of a blogger.
Oh, and where are my manners?! Welcome to all of Samantha’s readers! It’s so wonderful to have you here today! You can learn a little more about me here, here and here. Even if you have already seen this post over on her blog - may I recommend you scroll down to the very bottom because I have a little awesome giveaway happening! {How does some new makeup and a consult with a professional makeup artist sound to you? Yeah… I thought so! So scroll on down and get yourself entered!}
And now, without further ado…
My answers are the first ten.
1 // Yes, we do have to snap a picture of everything we eat, in all the phases of prepping, cooking, and eating. You never know when it will be mentioned in a post.
2 // Don’t think we are crazy when we ask you to go click on our sponsored post to get your own free sample of pads. A girls gotta get her clicks in.
3 // Yes, we can be best friends with people across the country that we never talk to on the phone, never mind hang out with in person. Don’t think I’m off my rocker. They do exist.
4 // It’s okay to refer to them (see no. 3) as my “Blog-friends” at home. But in public, please refer to them as their real names.
5 // Bloglovin is my equivalent of your Car Club Forum. Get in the know.
6 // When we ask you to take 27 pictures of us in the same outfit with slightly different poses, don’t question us. Just do it. And please avoid the angles that give me a double chin.
7 // Sometimes we just have to do fun things together because I don’t have anything cool to blog about at that moment. Is that a problem?
8 // You’re a pretty big part of my life. No, I cannot not mention you on the blog.
9 // Yes, both of our moms read my blog. No, I cannot block them.
10 // We appreciate your support. Blogging may be the weirdest thing to you but it’s something we love. Your kind words and compliments about a post we wrote is worth more than 42 comments from blog-friends and strangers.
And now Samantha’s 10.
11 // Your food might be cold by the time you eat it because we have to take 97 different pictures of it for our blog. That’s why we have a microwave.
12 // Your bank account might see an extra dip in it every so often when we just have to have that dress/planner/wine tumbler we saw in a blogger’s post today.
13 // You’re going to be blog famous. Just pretend that excites you.
14 // We might ask you if it’s ok to invite blog friends to our wedding. Say yes.
15 // We’re going to start speaking in a language you definitely won’t understand - i.e. blate, link-ups, guest posts.
16 // We will speak about people we’ve never met like we’ve known them a lifetime. Learn their names.
17 // You might be asked to take 36 pictures of us in the same dress more than once. Just smile and do it.
18 // Yes. We do NEED that pretty & expensive new blog design.
19 // Your vacations will likely be planned around recommendations from complete strangers. Make sure to get your request in early.
20 // No, you cannot tell us to exclude you from blog posts. That’s part of the wedding vows.
So what did we miss? What else does my hubbie and Samantha’s hubbie-to-be need to know?
