In your hands
So, here's the deal. I want you to vote yes or no. That's it, no further explanation will ever be offered, but I will abide by your decision, as reflected by votes received before my arbitrary deadline of 8 PM Thursday.
Voting is your responsibility and priviledge as a citizen of the blogosphere. Think carefully, and vote your conscience.
Polls are now closed, stay tuned for official results, um, later.
Posted by Beth at August 23, 2006 08:05 PMYes.
Posted by: Emily at August 23, 2006 08:17 PMdouble hell no - absolutely not - not even a freaking chance I'd go for that. My vote? NO!
Posted by: incredimom at August 23, 2006 08:31 PMYes. How could you pass up an opportunity like that ?
Posted by: Heather at August 23, 2006 08:32 PMSure, why not...you only live once.
Posted by: Jenn at August 23, 2006 08:32 PMNah.
Posted by: Jen at August 23, 2006 08:36 PMAbsolutely yes! It must be something you want, otherwise you'd have no trouble saying "no" all on your own.
Posted by: Katrina at August 23, 2006 08:41 PMyes!
Posted by: Heather at August 23, 2006 08:55 PMYES Beth, you should let us in on your "how to have a stork bring you an abnormally cute baby"" secret . . . your too-flat-to-be-true post-baby belly has given you away! *grin*
Posted by: Betti at August 23, 2006 08:59 PMNo way. Play it safe. Who says change is good? Everything is fine the way it is.
Posted by: Em at August 23, 2006 09:07 PMAbsolutely. He's hot and he's a pediatrician. Chris will just have to learn the power of forgiveness.
Yes
Posted by: jodiferous at August 23, 2006 09:16 PMYes! Absinitely, posolutely, and desitively! Best blog I've read all day :)
Posted by: Not Benjamin at August 23, 2006 09:17 PMThe answer is obviously yes, unless it's a resounding no. Which, considering the information I'm voting on, is probably the clearest vote I can give you!
Posted by: Heather at August 23, 2006 09:25 PMnope
Posted by: valerie at August 23, 2006 09:26 PMYes
Posted by: wordgirl at August 23, 2006 09:33 PMYes. I think yes. It's something you really, secretly want, but are afraid to jump into for some reason. All you need is a hearty "YES!" to push you into the goodness. So I'm pushin'
Amy :)
Posted by: Amy at August 23, 2006 09:54 PMNo. Not everything you want is good for you.
Posted by: Judy at August 23, 2006 09:56 PMyes, the old American Government teacher in me can never pass up an oportunity to vote.

Posted by: kim at August 23, 2006 11:57 PMOkay, is the hosting site erasing posts again? I have no idea what's going on and I check in at least twice a day. I hate not knowing what's going ON...
So, I vote...yes? Unless you're leaving us, and then it's a big fat NO.

Posted by: Frank at August 24, 2006 09:00 AMYes, please. Unless the question is, "Should I dismantle this site and only blog at the 'Diary of a Playgroup Droupout' site," in which case the answer is no.
Posted by: Cassandra at August 24, 2006 09:02 AMMy family has always used the phrase "change is never good" as a big fat sarcastic joke.
Yes. Of course.
Posted by: karamarie at August 24, 2006 09:16 AMAlmost everyone else is saying YES. Which is what I was going to say until almost everyone else said it.
But because I am obnoxious and contrary (hey look! I made it about me!), I say NO!
Posted by: s@bd at August 24, 2006 09:21 AMYes. Always better to try and fail, then never try at all. :)

Posted by: Carrster at August 24, 2006 09:43 AMI'm going with no. Only because so many others voted yes. :) (Yes, I usually vote "third party" in elections.)

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.
—Arthur Miller
I'm voting Yes, but since my vote results in a hanging chad, it's not a valid vote.
Posted by: Corinne at August 24, 2006 12:10 PMnope, no way, no...
Posted by: monique at August 24, 2006 12:22 PMHoly crap! Look at the turnout for your election! Or..whatever it is.

Posted by: Annie at August 24, 2006 01:31 PMWait, you aren't going to try to influence my vote in any way? Manipulate my emotions so I'll vote "yes"? Promise some sort of monetary "break" down the line if I just vote "no"?
I don't think I feel comfortable with this, so I'm going to go ahead and write in "Mia."
Posted by: erin at August 24, 2006 01:31 PMYes! Why not? Everybody else is doing it, right?
Posted by: morethanamom at August 24, 2006 01:33 PMNO WAY!!!

Posted by: jessica at August 24, 2006 02:25 PMNo way! It's just too risky. And by "risky", I clearly mean "Yes, go for it"!

Well, I hope it's something you really wanted to do, because so far, it looks like the Internet Has Spoken. ;)
Wait a minute...did you just push the deadline back by three hours? You'll make us wait that much longer to find out what we're voting for?! In that case, I retract my vote.
:)
Posted by: Melanie at August 24, 2006 04:50 PMI just re-red your post...we'll never find out, eh? Bummer.
I'm doing my part to contribute to the most comments you've ever received on a post, though!

Posted by: Kellie at August 24, 2006 05:44 PMSince my vote was a hanging chad, will there be a recount? Or will this be decided by the Supreme Court Justices (Mia and Chris), denying us our democratically elected answer?? If there's a re-count, I'd like to punch the hell out of my chad, and vote yes again.
Posted by: Corinne at August 24, 2006 05:56 PMYes. Of course, yes. Always, yes. Especially if you were wondering if you should make out with me.
Posted by: Ms. Q at August 24, 2006 05:59 PMYes, sure, why not!
