Last night when I came home there was a box on my front porch. I brought it inside and didn't think much of it while I was cooking dinner, checking homework, doing laundry, and the seven hundred other things I do during the hours of 6pm-10pm.
When things calmed down a bit and "Deal or No Deal" came on, Jason and I collapsed on the couch to watch. During a commercial I picked up the box and opened it.
"What's that?" he asked, only mildly interested.
I explained to him what the product was.
"Why would you buy that?" he said, seeming slightly more interested.
"I didn't buy it," I explained. "I got an email from the company asking me to review it on my blog."
"Your blog?" he looked momentarily confused. "Oh, right. Jason loves Jesus."
I snorted into my hand, "Right. Jason. For the love of God."
"Yeah, that's what I meant," he said, looking at the product curiously. "So people just send you stuff?"
"Apparently," I said.
"And you write about it?"
"Yes."
"On your blog."
"Right."
And then he asked the question I was hoping he would ask.
"Why?"
And I got to say the line that I have been DYING TO SAY FOR ALMOST A YEAR.
I looked him square in the eyes and said:
"I'm kind of a big deal on the internet."
Jason's eyes grew wide and he said, amazed, "Really?!?!?"
And I laughed and said, "No, not really. I just wanted to say that."
A few moments of Howie Mandell and his bald head passed and Jason and his bald said,
"That's okay baby. You're a big deal in this house."
That's all I ever wanted anyway.

You ARE a big deal! I am jealous! I want free stuff!!!
Ditto what j said. "Jason Loves Jesus" had me cracking up. I thought at first you were going to say that he got some sort of Bible seminar in the mail, lol.
Whoa, I just read my comment and that kind of sounded wrong. The fact that Jason loves Jesus is not funny, but a blog called that would be. OK, I'm done now :-)
OK that's just precious.
you are a huge deal on the internet and in my life!!!!
yay for Jason loving Jesus!
My husband doesn't understand the blogging thing either. He thinks it is silly that I share personal stuff and that anyone cares about my opinion on random products. I love the free stuff too.
Jason loves Jesus - LOL! I have tears in my eyes, that was awesome!
You ARE a big deal on the internet!! :)
I want free stuff, too!!
Jason Loves Jesus....KILLING me this morning!!
You are a big deal on the internet. I bet you'd be a big deal on Deal or No Deal too! Now there's an idea...Who else wants to see Chick on Deal or No Deal???
My husband is mildly impressed at what I've learned while blogging and loves that it keeps me from going crazy.
I just HAVE to say that Jason Loves Jesus will have me laughing out loud all day today. I'm thinking I will have to get my Jason a shirt that says that... Because that? is freaking funny.
Um, yea, you are so a big deal...
You are a big deal at my house, too!
I don't think my hubby could get even as close as Jason did to the name of my blog. Talk about showing no interest whatsoever....
You are a big deal.
Sooooo.....what was it? The free thing?
You are witholding. Not cool.
:-)
Jason loves Jesus. :snort:
LOL. You always make me laugh, which is a big deal.
So, when do we get to find out what the product is????
You ARE a big deal!
And you've got a sweet sweet husband!
Jason loves Jesus..priceless! You make me laugh daily so YES, your are a big deal.....
So, what's the product?
All you need now is one of those shirts that say "yeah, I'm kind of a big deal".
So what was it? And how do us other bloggers get to do that kind of stuff?
Cod knows you're kinda a big deal everywhere. And it's damn time Jason recognized that! xo
Am I going to hell for saying Jason loves Jesus made me laugh my ass off & pee my pants a little? Oh, and YOU are HUGE on the internet.
Love it. Love it. Love it.
Jason can be such a doll, can't he?
And you are a big deal - Technorati-schmati says so. =P
You, my dear, ARE a big deal on the internet.
By the way, I had a similar conversation with my husband the first few times I started getting things to review. It's kind of cool, isn't it?
You are a big deal!
Oh wait, 23 or so people before me said the same thing, darn.
Is it sinking in yet?
YOU ARE A BIG DEAL!!!
Good man, that Jason.
Blessings.
"Jason loves Jesus", he seriously said that? He sounds like my hubby always getting things a little backwards for names and stuff.
Also? You are totally a big deal on the internet. I'm mean if your getting stuff for free and all. Thats a big deal. obviously they think you have enough of a group to want you to review stuff.
You are totally a big deal on the internet! I always think, once you get trolls commenting and free stuff you are so THERE!
Great post. But what I really want to know is if you got the Dyson for free.....now THAT would be a big deal.
I'm way behind this week. In no particular order:
You are a big deal!!
Happy Birthday- I can't believe I missed it.
I'm a Baptist, too. Wanna trade casserole recipes?
Have fun in Disney!!
but you ARE a big deal on the internet.
what did you get to review? You know this means you have to do a review blog now....and join the Review Bloggers, right?
COme on, Resistance is Futile!
That's awesome! Congrats on being a big deal--in BOTH houses!
Haha! Sometimes men can surprise us with comments like that! I'm glad he appreciates you - even if he can't remember your blog name! ;)
