Here's something: I could convert Functional/Ambivalent into a blog made up entirely of the profiles of other bloggers who I'm guaranteed not to like. For example:
I am a stay-at-home mom of 3 boys, an amateur genealogist, a
scrapbooker, an avid reader, a political junkie, a huge Springsteen
fan, and a compulsive proofreader. I am opinionated and brutally honest. I don't
sugar-coat anything or dance around issues. For this reason, some
people don't like me.
I do not believe that the world needs more opinionated and brutally honest scrapbookers.
To make it even better, she posted her prom picture.
The only thing missing is a referral to being "Sassy".

Certainly exhibit one in "The Brutally Honest Scrapbook of My High School Days". Based on the evidence, she was slumming.
Actually, "The Brutally Honest Scrapbook" is a great concept for a blog.

Her prom date was 12 years old at the time. Cradle robber!

Bored, I stopped by the site.
I was treated to the following excerpt:
* finished the ribbon tiebacks for my bedroom curtains
* admired Rob's handiwork of last night; he hung a matchstick shade in the bathroom and shortened it from 72" to a reasonable length. It looks nice!
* gone through my closet and purged some things that are just too old or too big (!)
* vacuumed the hallway and my bedroom
* cleaned the kitchen
* made a phone call I've been putting off
* called the vet to get an appointment for Pippa (she's due for shots ... bad pet mama)
* arranged child care so that I can have my manicure/pedicure tomorrow sans kids
* paid some bills so they're ready to deliver/mail tomorrow
I can't imagine why you don't think that you'll like her blog.

I'm seriously considering "In Your Face Scrapbooking" as a new blog theme. That's genius.
