Kire has been blogging since April 30, 2011 and has posted every day since!! As part of being the Featured Blog each week, I send a list of questions (interview) to the blogger and offer the blogger a chance to guest post – if they want. Come back on Friday for my Interview with Kire, but I’ll give you a taste… He is hilarious!!

This is taken directly from a word document that Kire sent me:

Kire: Thank you for taking the time to do this. Please take me with a grain of salt, preferably with Tequila.

From my email: If you want to send me the links to your GFC, email, Facebook, Twitter…wherever…I will include it all in the post too!!

Attention Mommy Bloggers! Be advised that a new breakthrough technology is being offered to you at little to no cost, as long as you have a great credit rating and are willing to have a section of your cerebral cortex removed and replaced with The Blog Wave 1000. That’s right! With the Blog Wave 1000 your thoughts will instantly become your blog. No more sitting in front of that pesky lap top, typing away. In fact I’m creating this post right now using this new, incredible device. I know what you’re thinking, we’re out of 1% milk, but it’s true. Between the emails, texts, tweets and I’ve got to send that physical form to the school, minutes will be saved every day from your life allowing you to I haven’t had sex in weeks for the most important person in your life, you. With the Blog Wave 1000 did I mail the mortgage check have the same great content it always had with half the work. Operators are standing by so I should take that pot roast out of the freezer.

And that’s just a small part of the humor!! You have to read some of the crazy things that happen in his family…and the things his kids say!! I have found myself getting stuck reading his posts in Google Reader several times. Thanks, Erik/Kire/WhoeverYouAre, for the laughs!!

Link up with him, comment on his posts, tag his Facebook page, tweet about him…I know I will be!!!

Come back on Friday for the rest of the Interview!!
