*plugging ears and singing lalalala*
filed under: blog explosion
lalala I’m not watching tv lalala I’m not listening to the radio lalala I’m not looking at any news or political websites lalala unless it shows up on Blog Explosion then I go away after thirty seconds lalalalalala
Mmhmm. Yet another site touting blog explosion. I’ve found some really interesting sites out there. Yes, some were just awful, ugly, and pundit-y but for the most part I’ve found some wonderful new voices that I hope to hear more from.
As I’ve been touring around I’ve seen a lot of people blogging about the woes of being forced to read someone else’s poetry, political views, or lists of hates and angst while visiting other sites in order to promote their own. Here’s some news for you: Not everyone gives a shit about what you have to say either. Just wait the thirty seconds and move on please. It’s the nature of the web, baby, and people are suffering with yours just as much as you’re suffering someone else’s. Let’s just suck it up and try being polite, for once. Please.
And to set myself apart from a lot of those other posts about BE while conveniently distracting myself from all that stressful news stuff: I’m going to be positive and list the sites I’ve added to my ‘blogmarks’ which I’ll be adding to my blogroll as well. I think you’d enjoy them too.

Some are quirky, others outfright freakish, a few personal or cultural observations, some really nice photography, and even some deep thoughts.

IT MUST BE HIM **
Vikki Carr
I tell myself what’s done is done
I tell myself don’t be a fool
Play the field have a lot of fun
It’s easy when you play it cool
I tell myself don’t be a chump
Who cares, let him stay away
That’s when the phone rings and I jump
And as I grab the phone I pray
Let it please be him, oh dear God
It must be him or I shall die
Or I shall die
Oh hello, hello my dear God
It must be him but it’s not him
And then I die
That’s when I die
ok it’s a tad dramatic but I thought it was funny
Hey! That’s me in there! Like you I have blogmarked quite a few - but there’s nothing like seeing your own site blogmarked and eventually rolled! Thank you! I most certainly will reciprocate.
Huh? Where’s my little punk girl??
Keep trying, you can’t ignore the elections!!
I do like the new layout
Wow! Thanks for the link and the plug in you post. Right now I’m ready to cover my ears cause this election is ticking me off. But I never learn. I’ll probably forget to sleep tonight.
For the record: I quit smoking1452 days ago.Good job!
Oh my goodness, what wonderful taste in blogs you have. Oh wait, is that ME in that list. I am honoured and thrilled and now I must figure out if I am quirky or freakish (because I have ruled out the deep thoughts catagory).
I love your blog…and not simply because it has ME blogrolled. YOU will also be blogrolled by me.
Again thank you.
I also have for f*ck’s sake bookmarked, but the Load of Bollocks one I couldn’t get into. Maybe it’s the banner that bothers my head. I found another good one that’s something like Outside Looking In written by this guy named Crimson, but he’s bookmarked on the other computer and I can’t think of his link right now.
