First: It's weigh in Friday With The Future MILF Group! I have Lost 2 1/2 lbs!!!! I was 187.5 last Friday and this morning I am 185!!!!! Yeah Me!!! It's walking and choking down slimfast.
This de lurking is like a cloaking devise on Star Trek, right? I think someone should make a de lurking devise and you would have to sign in to even read the blogs..no, then half the time my password would be wrong and I wouldn't be able to have any blog adventures. I went over to Wip and that led me to Old School Acres which led me to a most delightful blog and post about lurkers. Paper Napkin has all kinds of groovy little buttons...I couldn't decide which one I liked best so I grabbed a few.
She had so many comments that her comment option was closed!!! over 200....Now, that's excessive!
Somewhere between 0 and 20 is perfect for me...over 200...how do you deal with that many emails telling you that there are comments?
But, It's tough when you can see how many people come to your blog..
I recently hooked up to feed burner and I know that people from Venice ( so close we could craft & tea) and Austin ( want to see your city someday)
and Nashville (been there and loved it!), Perth (did I ever mention the guy I dated from Australia?), and New Haven ( have been there and loved it!) have read my blog..
I am amused by the Google searches that lead some of you here as well.
.I will save some of the best for another post.
I am glad that you are entertained and when you do comment I am delighted.
I feel like a few of you are becoming my Cyber Ya Ya's and if we could someday put together our own little Craft Retreat/ Conference it would Rock!
I have been a lurker on a lot of Blogs that I felt had been around a long time and already have so many comments- they don't need mine or that I really have nothing more to add- I mean, how many times do you need to hear "Awesome- fabulous idea!!" blah, blah, blah.
So there is a balance in there somewhere..
Let's try to find it..
Remember this is National De Lurkers Week.
You have all week- oh wait, it's Friday...maybe I can just extend mine for a week.... I don't bite.
Say Hello!
Share something about yourself.
Do you have a blog?
How's the weather?
Did you know that with every comment you leave you lose a pound?
Did you know commenting can end world hunger?
It can promote whirled peas.
Commenting on blogs can help find Big Foot!
Only Aliens from other Planets lurk!!
Oh, yeah, it just goes on and on....
It's like going to someones house, walking in, looking at their diary and then leaving without ever saying hello or thank you or saying how it made you feel.
I just watched a vlog- over at Mom O Matic..she posted a link to Jenny At Mama Drama and her video blog...very cool and sweet and what a nice way to get to know someone! I think we should all do that!!
What's to fear?
If the biggest fear that you have is saying something stupid- look at me - I do that all the time! Daily!
Ya gotta laugh at yourself and have fun with it for heavens sake.
No one is any different or better than any one else here. I just enjoy the process. My rambling rant about cheerleaders struck a cord with some of you.
..I wasn't slamming cheerleaders so much as the idea that once those chicks become cheerleaders in their own head then they think they are so much better than the little, lesser people. There has always been levels in each society...
In Blog World everyone should play nice, share, grow, learn. That could be a Utopian Society. Real or Cyber real. Have you heard of Second Life?
It's a 3D Cyber World where you can own property and earn cyber cash to buy enhancements for your character or house. Do the characters in Second Life have a computer with Third life on it? A world within a world within a world....I think our Blog World can be what we make it. Mine is full of crafty goodness, cupcake pictures, hot tea & long walks on the beach... The choice is yours. Just Say Hi!
PS: that doesn't mean now- just whenever..
