Available
I don't know if this is the sort of thing a person ought to mention on their blog or not. I worry a lot about appropriateness, if you hadn't noticed. I like for people to have a pleasant experience when they show up here, and I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable.
But this seems like kind of a big deal, so I thought I'd chance it.
I'm not even sure how to put this, so I guess... well, I guess I'll just say it like this, separately spaced, centered, and bolded:
It's taken me some time to come to this point, but I'm finally ready to announce it. Sure, it might not mean much to some of you - most of you, even - but for a select few, it might put a spring in your step, a gleam in your eye, or a flutter in your heart. To those select few I say this: contact me. My email address is in the upper-left corner, the comments section is open - I'll even give you my phone number if you want. Just give me a holler.
We'll have fun, I promise you. Oh, there'll be rough times, but if we work through them, we'll come out on the other side of them a better team, more prepared for the next challenges. But if you're up for it, so am I. With enough work, maybe we'll eventually be able to take a crack at something a little scary, very difficult, but ultimately rewarding: "Freebird" on Expert.
Considering I'm just now starting to try songs on Hard, it might take a while. But if you're available to work on it, I am, too. So if you wanna play some Guitar Hero until your fingers fall off, give me a holler.
I'm totally available. For playing Guitar Hero.

Those two words...and the picture of you waxing poetic in front of the Thomas Kincaide picture and the candles has put me over the edge.

Uncle Mark!!! You're hillarious and so sweet...how can any woman not love you! I wish you all the best.
Girls can rock at Guitar Hero too. I'm good but not that good because I am only half way through medium.

I got a bigger kick out of the select few who didn't bother to make the connection between the post and Guitar Hero. :)
You can't fool anyone Mark, all the "available" woman really know what you are talking about and it has NOTHING to do with guitar playing! But I love how you did it, how could any "available" woman resist such an invitation! You are awesome.

If you know that it would put a spring in a few people's step that you're available, why don't you make someone's day and challenge them?

I find it hard to believe you have time for Guitar Hero training when you've clearly been busy moonlighting as a writer for EW:

Didn't fool me for a minute. The part that gave it away was how you talked about "working hard" ... more than once. HA!
