I like it! I'm a horrible blusher! It drives me crazy! Reading that makes me feel better about it though, now that I know there is a purpose to it! :)

I remember someone once telling me that I'm transparent, because of my blushing. I guess it would be a good thing to try to embrace - to try to live more honestly and openly I suppose?!

I am not sure if I am a blusher or not. I guess when I get real embarassed, or really anxious I do but not 100% sure.

I suppose when they sang Happy Birthday and brought the cake ice cream and sparkler to my table I might have blushed a little.

Thanks for the interesting read. They say you learn something new each day if you are open to it. You just gave me the new for today.

Speaking of living more honestly, I have a quote for you:

"Live in such a way that you would not be ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip."
