Searching for other blogging couples
Now that Stephanie and I are up and blogging again, I have decided to see if I can find other couples out there who have also decided to start a blog together. I’m sure that there are a lot of other blogging couples out there, I’m just not really sure at this point how I’m going to actually find them. I’m pretty good at this whole Internet thing, so I’m sure that I’ll figure it out and hopefully before you know it I’ll be telling you all about the other cool blogs that I end up tracking down.
I understand that tracking down these other blogging couples might sound slightly Internet-stalkerish, but I promise that I have good intentions and would simply like to meet other couples out there who are using blogging as a way to make their relationship even better. Plus, if most of you didn’t already know this I’ll let you in on a little secret, developing an amazing relationship with someone that you love isn’t easy and it takes a lot of work. Of course, hopefully it’s work that both of you are more than willing to do, but one thing that I know is that it definitely isn’t easy. So, any ways that I can either learn from another couple or can help out another couple I’m all about finding ways to make the path to an amazing relationship easier and I feel that connecting with other couples who blog is a great way to do just that.
After doing a quick search on the train ride home from work the other day I am happy to report that I found my first official blogging couple. The blog is called ‘he said she said‘ and it’s a part of the overall website that Brendan and Jessica created together that’s creatively called BrenandJess.com(which is eerily similar to our naming scheme of HupandSteph.com). From what I can tell Brendan and Jessica are a married couple in Virginia(I think?) who have a beautiful daughter named Bridget. They seem to have a really great relationship and it totally shows in their blog. It’s amazing how you feel like you can really know a couple after just reading their blog for a few minutes. For instance, here are a few things that I can now tell you about the loves of Brendan and Jessica:
- They were married on September 8th, 2001.
- They talk a lot about their daughter, Bridget. In fact, ‘Bridget’ is the most used tag in their blog.
- Brendan is a HUGE Steelers fan. So huge in fact, that Jessica lists ‘Laugh at Brendan getting all worked up over a Steelers game’ as one of the most common things that you can find her doing on the weekend.
- They voted for Obama. Or, at least Jessica did. Also, it should be noted that Virginia and Indiana both swung Democratic in this election. Crazy stuff.
- They have had some crazy, non-grass-mowing hillbilly neighbors.
- They have an awesome photo gallery.
Like I said, you can find out a lot.
I plan on adding links to each of these couple blogs that I find and hope to potentially even create a network of them eventually so that we all can connect, learn and share the good, bad and interesting lives that we all lead on a day-to-day basis. I mean, it sounds like a good idea and plus, I’m going to need some wedding advice here eventually and hopefully Brendan can hook a bruthu up.
