Wow, it’s been a while! 
But here we are again with another installment of Monday Mingle. YouTube is giving me a hassle because I used some Black Eyed Peas music as my intro but I think they’d be all for it. I do it justice.
For those unaware, Monday Mingle is a weekly video blog where a series of questions, topics or ideas are answered and discussed by participating bloggers. Jennifer over at Eighty MPH Mom posts the questions and then bloggers answer them vlog-style.
Big thanks to YouTube for selecting one of the dorkiest frames for the video photo. Sigh.

GREG!! I almost DID faint! You have been so missed buddy!
Nice moves – who knew you had it in you? Well you have shown us your moves before, but it's been so long and all I guess I forgot.
The hubs and I were dying laughing at your cross-country story. That is so true!
The phone kept ringing while I was trying to mingle too – so annoying! Don't people know I am busy? Hmph.
Yes we did go down to three questions, but sometimes I get a wild hair and put four of them on there. By the way, I need more questions, so if you come up with any, let me know.
Thanks for coming back – I cannot wait to see what you have in store for us!!
Greg!! We missed ya, good to see you back!
I like your point on Coke & Pepsi, and I'd say my least favorite is cross-country skiing too. I never thought of it until now, but I wasn't interrupted by the phone in my Mingle, I think it's been the first time actually! Well, the kids did, but that's just a given! LOL
My kids danced with you! Thanks for keeping them busy during their nightly cranky time before bed. Really – Thank You!

So glad to see your return.
You're so very right about the Pepsi/Coke thing. I'll drink either. I'll even drink "Cola". You know. The off-brand or make it at home stuff. It's all the same to me.
I actually didn't watch cross-country skiing. It didn't seem all that exciting to me but I guess I really missed out on some good laughs.

Hey Greg! you are BACK! (You might wanna call EMS cause hey I did faint.)
*gasping for air* Oh you are back! YAHOO!
YEAH! Major happy dance here!
I might even dance on my mingle cause you are BACK!
YES!
I am so HAPPY! Hey dude! You are on my Cluttered Brain blogroll! <–, and -So I can keep up with ya!
I joined WordPress while you were gone. I wanted to see what the fuss was all about. I likey. I also took off ALL the buttons of my Cluttered Brain Blog and filled it with ME. Cause I blog for me not anybody else.
Anyhoo, your mingle.
Want a little sugar with your tea? I LOVE tea with tons of sugar too. YUM!
I'm a Coke girl too. Or Diet Dr. PEpper….
Olympics–I didn't watch..*gasp* I know I miss my shows. Does that make me a bad american? I hope not.
Gardening….I love your rock garden! So funny!
I'm off to make my mingle now–I am SO glad you are back. That is awesome!
I am so HAPPY! You did make my night tonight! Really!
Right on!
Come check me out on both blogs when you get some time–Cluttered Brain Blog And the other link I left it with my comment.
Thanks Greg!
When does your show start up again? Or will it?

I loved your intro song Greg! You are so funny! I do agree with the comment that if they don't have Coke, I go for a Pepsi. That's funny!
I loved your reenactment of cross-country skiing! I don't watch that either
Happy Monday!
.-= Shannon (The Mommy-Files)´s last blog ..Journals Unlimited Review =-.
That's my fav. song! Reminds me of blogher.
I too forget to feed my plants. It also seems like a lot of plants just live one year. They die, no matter what you do.
There's nothing like soda drinkers.
.-= kristin´s last blog ..Pardon My Mess =-.
Yay Greg! So happy to see you again! Your Mingles always make my day. I love that song…just gets me all pumped up!
The rock garden, yes. Or better yet, the zen rock garden. Then you can scrape the sand around and feel all peaceful.
You know, that's really true about the soda thing, I never really thought about it. I guess I'm kind of a picky one though, if they don't have coke I usually don't take pepsi, I sub with an iced tea. Southern roots you know, gotta stick with 'em.
LOL!!! Love the cross-country skiing demo there. And it's true. I still watch it, cause it's the Olympics, but it is kinda slow until like the last 10 yards when everyone is trying to pass the people they could have passed miles ago for a medal. Oh well.
Glad to have you back mister! Have a great week and I'll look forward to seeing you again soon!
.-= Lauren´s last blog ..Why My Life Rocks Right Now =-.
Hey Greg! I mentioned you in my MM because you screwed up my makeup. Just thought you might want to know. haha!
I disagree on the soda thing for people that drink diet though. I do agree for regular but there is a big difference b/w diet Coke and diet Pepsi. I will not say okay for diet Pepsi and I know others that have issues with diet sodas.
Thanks for the entertainment. I am glad you are back to doing MM. I have been doing them for a few weeks now and love it!
.-= Stefany @ ToBeThode´s last blog ..Sickness, ER visits, and double standards =-.
Oh boy!!
First.. So happy you're back! We have anxiously been awaiting the return of your dance moves..
Ok, now to the bone I have to pick with you mister!! There is a BIG difference between Coke and Pepsi. And I'm talking the soda's themselves not the brands which encompass several flavors. Being the connoisseur of soda that I am I will never say "Do you have Coke?.. No?.. Okay then I'll have a Pepsi." I will order water before I order Pepsi.
Phew, now that that's over.. Get blogging mister!! We missed you and are ready for some serious posting going on!

Hi there! My best friend, Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom posted this on my Facebook page because she said you were so funny and I had to watch. And she was so right! You are hilarious and you made my night! I loved your bit on rock gardens. I grew up in the Bay Area and after having droughts and water rationing my dad put all rocks in the front yard. Grass and flowers might look better but at least my dad put in different colored rocks to spice it up! Well, you now have a new fan. I will be looking forward to reading your blogs and next Monday Mingle! Take care and keep up those great dance moves! lol
I was extremely excited to see you on your blog again! We miss you guys already!! You look a bit tired and Scott wants to know how long it took you to learn the song? Glad to see your back and tell everyone we said HI!
Loved your intro!!
I kept thinking though — wouldn't it be funny if your wife walked in!
I gotta say though — if the waiter says they only have pepsi — I order tea.
Cross Country skiing is so boring…Happy Monday Mingle! Hope you have a good week.
.-= Mellisa´s last blog ..It Pays to Follow Blogs!! =-.
Woooot!! So glad you are back!
My kids were dancing to your intro as I was dying of laughter!
Rock Gardens are fine by me. You can find some pretty rocks and there ya go!
Tea alone is pretty icky! Lots of sugar makes it tolerable.
Cross Country skiing is ridiculously boring.. Snoooooooze fest!
Hope you have a great week! Again, glad to see you back
your mingles are so professional, and might i say that dads who dance are SO very cool…
they should just have a self absorbed gardener section at the nursery… you agree, id see you there.
doesn't matter? what planet do you live on? it so matters, millions of people cannot be wrong..
exotic ethnic mutts… we rock..
.-= Mary RC´s last blog ..Makeup Tip #5 Hard Habit to Break =-.
Hey just so you know, i mingled finally, AND I did alittle dance for you. I mingled at midnight.
I know, i know I am crazy.
Have a great week!
.-= One Vlogging Mama´s last blog ..Check me out on the Blog Frog community! =-.
Ok so I am new to the whole blogging thing but I have to say your mingle had me in stiches! I tried for over 5 hours to get my video camera to cooperate but was unable to so I will try real hard all week to see if I can get it to work so I can start mingling next week. I am glad to be a part of this community and look forward to many more Mondays with you and everyone else:) Have a great week!
Jacki
Oh I love the intro! I started Mingling while you were on a mingling hiatus and it's so nice to meet you!
I hear you on plants that don't die . . . rock gardens, hahaha!
Your cross-country commentary had me laughing so hard. Again, glad to find your blog. It's awesome!!
Looking forward to seeing you again next week
.-= Nicole´s last blog ..iRewardChart Review and Giveaway! =-.
Loved the intro! BEP rock. The cross-country skiing commentary was hillarious.
.-= Yolanda´s last blog ..Monday Mingle – March 1st =-.
That was awesome. I looked like Oprah when that song started….
Okay maybe not.
I'm glad I did not watch this one before I made my own or I wouldn't have done it.
.-= LindsayDianne´s last blog ..February in Review =-.
Youtube captures for videos always make me laugh because I always come out looking like a complete moron LOL
Rock gardens…Buzz has a zen garden thingy on his desk and that's about as green thumb as he gets but I LOVE to garden, if only I had a garden to garden in!
I will take a Coke or Pepsi (diet in both) whatever they have at the place we eat but in general I try for water although some places have bleach water and it's just not doable
I think there is a difference between the sodas but it doesn't bother me too much, soda is soda!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE tea but I AM British so what do you expect LOL I used to do four sugars in my tea but as I aged I phased it out and now I just drink tea with milk, no sugars.
Your skiing made me laugh. I didn't watch any of the olympics but Buzz and I were laughing at the cross country skiing the other morning when they were showing clips on the news.
Good to see you mingling again!
.-= Amy´s last blog ..Still Playing the Waiting Game =-.
Okay, that last comment went through…
Anyway, so as I was saying in my lost comment… you totally cracked me up with your dancing. I loved it!
Funny about the Coke/Pepsi thing… you're right that is a unique product category where we switch with only some minor complaints.
I'm a rather new Mingler, and I missed the last couple weeks.
ok…just had to stop the video and comment before I was even done. But first, loved the opening. I think everyone should open their videos with a little Black Eyed Peas. Ok…I need to comment on the Coke/Pepsi issue. I very respectfully disagree.
You obviously have never been out to eat with us. We have LEFT a restaurant because they served Pepsi. Yep….we may be the only ones, but if it's not Coke products, we don't go back. Depending on how back we need that diet Coke at the time, we will leave if they have Pepsi. That is the first thing we check when we go to a new place. Pepsi and Coke are sooooo different. I can't swallow pepsi. Makes me want to spit. Diet Coke is like heaven to me.
ok…now I can finish watching the video.
.-= Michele McGraw (ScrappinMichele)´s last blog ..Monday Mingle: Gardening, Soda, Chocolate and a Few More Things…. =-.
Well, I guess I started mingling while you where away – so hello, and nice to meet you! (You seem to be a fan favorite, by the way!)
Nice mingle! I absolutely loved the intro! My kids were sitting next to me watching you too!
I agree with with Michelle about the coke, though – I even said so on my mingle. (Well, I've never left a restaurant over it, but I definitely don't find Pepsi an okay substitute. I'll switch to iced tea instead.)
Looking forward to your future mingles!
Awesome Video! I love your site….gives mine something to aspire to!
