56% of you are out there, somewhere, on the internet but hope that not too many people know about it. 26% of you are letting it all hang out, and 16% say they just don’t put pictures of themselves on the internet.  I’m counting myself among that crowd.  You know, I guess the main reason is that I’m a cynic.  I don’t trust people and I certainly don’t trust sites like Facebook and what have you to keep my pictures private.  Yeah, they are supposed to be addressing some of those privacy issues, but I still don’t believe them.  And I’ve not posted pictures of myself for so long (I’ve been blogging since 2004) that at this point, it is simply sheer stubbornness that keeps me from putting anything up.  I figure if I haven’t done it by now, why start?  And I absolutely do not post pictures of my children, either.  I think I did once, years and years ago, and then took it off three days later.

So this next poll question is a personal one, which is fantastic, as I sort of have you guys as my advisers on an unpaid retainer.  Although for all I know, you are lying through your teeth when you answer these things.

My husband and I will be celebrating our tenth wedding anniversary (although we have been together as a couple for twenty) in November, and I floated to him the idea that I might like to do a very informal, fun renewal of vows.  And, you know, maybe a little party or something to go along with that. Well, I certainly wasn’t expecting the negative reaction I got, and I’m wondering if it is worth it to try and push the issue (because nothing says enduring love like forcing your spouse to do something they don’t want!) or if I should just let it go.
