OH MY GOD.

My husband thinks I’m insane. He’s always thought that, but the more he reads of my Blog the more he thinks I’m losing it. My mom complains that I link to much.

So, to make them both happy, here we go.

I know I said I wouldn’t link to her for at least a week, but I have to. It’s just too beautiful to take the chance that you might miss it.

Moments after I read this, we heard a suspicious sound at the front door. Then heard heavy boots outside the window. It is, after all, raining and almost 8:00pm here. Who on earth could it be? After looking at each other with much alarm, DJ got up to go take a shower (that’s just how alarmed he was) while I quickly pondered all the horrible situations that may be about to befall us. Then I heard the friendly sound of the UPS truck. BEADS??!! I thought and rushed to the door. No, a package from Grandmaother with some random bits and pieces we’d left behind on our recent trip. Maybe tomorrow vis USPS. What are they, Irish?

I just noticed that I’m officially over 1,000 hits. That’s got to be some sort of milestone, right? Let’s pretend that Google & accidental clickings DON’t count for the majority of them, which would make it SEEM as though more than 3 people actually read this on a semi-regular basis. Right on. Now, if I could just figure out how to get the lurkers to comment.

I’m drinking this wine right now. Yum. Sorry, sis. To the rest of you, I highly recommend it.

Okay, I think I’m done. I hope you don’t think I’m as crazy/annoying (Janice? Janice!) as DJ seems to think you might. I guess I’ll have to remember that “You have to stop the Q-Tip when there’s resistance.”

They will come. I promise. You are very funny! This was a very clever post linking to so many of us. Thank you. And welcome to the wonderful world of blogging.

And thanks for coming by my blog today. I will be posting more on the BIG RAIN…I may need some assist from Jack Daniels infused with coke. LOL – glad you liked that! I’m a little South of you, Los Angeles county, but in the foothills. Hope you’re staying dry!

Ok freaky link girl, I am hooked on the so far 3 hour saga of PW and appear to be only through the first part which means I will have to continue reading and sobbing and laughing all night. So, maybe there is a method to your link madness! Thanks…

Ummm. Carr wine. I’ll need to use your connections to get some of that good stuff out here in June. Your mom sounds pretty critical – I like your links, and I plan to embark on the PW bio while T is out of town! I can’t wait to be involved with something that doesn’t live in Toytown. Seriously – did they only ever make 4 episodes of that goddamned show?

jck-thanks for the welcome. Stay dry!

hrg- I’m pretty sure i don’t have any clout with her. If I did, though, I’d be a constant long term guest at her house.

bananas- very scary. Except when they bring me pretty things. And I’m pretty sure I could take on my UPS guy. He’s really skinny.

jodi- i’m officially going to call myself a linker. maybe it will be my thing…along with using random friends quotes.

quart- Yes, it was good, and yes, I’ll use my connections. I’ll even get you some Tobin James Sparkling wine…living on the edge, aren’t we?! I thought for sure you’d commend me on my clever use of Friends quotes…are you slipping?

i’m not sure who hrg is, then i just typed hug, but i really meant HRH. And I’m not sure why i’m opposed to using capital letters today, either, but apparently i am.
it’s my blog, so i can do it if i want. so there.

I thoroughly enjoyed your use of quotes, and was mad at myself for not being able to come up with a clever one myself. So it’s basically a moo point. Like a cow’s opinion. It doesn’t matter. It’s moo.

Great blog! Hope to stop by more often.
As another mother of two boys close in age I feel your pain… and your joy… and your frustration, your euphoria and your unwillingness to wipe another butt for the 24th time of the day.

I didn’t complain that there were too many links – I simply said it takes too much time to click on all of them…. BIG DIFFERENCE!

Grandmaother-My way sounded better. Just call me the James Frey of Blogging. It might not have happened EXACTLY the way I wrote, but it’s kinda close.
