[...] You learned about my sordid past, how I met Cody, how I fell in love with Cody, how I became a Mormon, what a wicked awesome baker I am, how I got fat after marrying Cody, how I was an infertile science experiment, how I lost all the weight, what a raging bitch I was when pregnant, how I overdosed when I was pregnant, how I almost threw my kid in a fire, that I dislike Utah, I have a best friend who takes lovely photos, I make out with pillows, I fake it for doctors AND I lock my kid in her room with bungee cords. Oh, and don’t forget all the Mormon pride I slung around like snowballs. [...]

I am loving these posts. Thanks for sharing.

And also, yes the divorce rate CAN be lower for LDS members. But only in those that actually follow the teachings of the church. I like that that aspect was included in the talk by Elder Ballard. You have to WORK on your marriage.

And I like what Mrs. Fussypants said…I agree, anyone that loves Jesus is cool to me!

Hey, Casey! Remember ME? I was thinking of you this morning for some reason, so I thought I’d see if your blog is still around, and here it is, in all your witty glory (I do love how you write!).

I hope all is well; just thought I’d say hi. Great writing on the Church; how brave you are! Take care. Hope your stay in Utah was good.

I love that you’re doing this, Casey. The hubs and I heard something on NPR awhile back that said something like 60% of Americans think of LDS as like a cult. Wow. I was able to parrot your statistic of being the 4th largest Christian denomination in the U.S. to T.

But seriously, that floored me.

First time commenter, newly discovered reader. Part of the reason I added you to my feed reader is because you are LDS. My hubby and I are currently taking the lessons and have scheduled our baptisms to be on Christmas weekend.

Hope the moosh is feeling better, and hugs to you on the ‘away from hubby’ blahs.

I love that you are educating us all!!! I have to admit I know nothing about the Mormon faith & I’m quick to judge those boys dressed in suits who ride their bikes in our city & knock on doors

I missed it somewhere… why are you in Utah and Cody is not? I hope the time passes so quickly for you. {{{{{{hugs}}}}}}} (and good job on the clearing up of more of the misunderstandings of us)
