No follow / Search engine / Site Adviser

Question: Anyone know anything about McAfee Site Adviser? Is this something that those of us who are self hosted should be buzzing about, or is it a bunch of blah? So I’ve seen the “you comment, I follow” tags before, but I just found out what all that was about – I figure I can’t be the very, very last person on the planet to understand it, so I will..

Who would I be?

Thank you everyone for all your thoughts on the blogrolling thing last week. I learned that blogrolls are used for props, in place of readers (like g00gle or bloglines), are dusty and forgotten, are reciprocal, are advertising, are awesome, are overlooked, and that Ron was a model and Adamick is a pervy stalker. Wait – one of those things I already knew…. The whole high school analogy started in my.. Read More

Christmas and Vibrators and Lingerie

Oh yeah baby! Mitch McDad sparked the memory – I have to give in and tell the stories. — It was the first Christmas Eve that Scout and I spent together. We sat round the table eating dinner, and I had just sunk my teeth into a cookie when his mother said: “We were halfway through Iowa when we realized we left the vibrator at home!” Now, I like a..

Showin’ off on Saturday

So. I’ve been known to share some of the cooler things I’ve been able to pull off … which I realized might just be construed as … showin’ off. And showin’ off alone isn’t NEARLY as much fun as showin’ off with your friends. (Right Ivy?) So, here’s my brainchild – Whenever I find something to show off about, I’m gonna invite YOU to show off with me too. I’ll.. Read More

7 things + Christmas Hoopla

I figure when I get tagged twice, I gotta do it. For Carrie and for MP, here I go. 1. I have the coolest Secret Blogger Santa ever. Go say hello to her. Now… I’ll wait. 2. While I go insane at the whole “politically correct” arena, I think people who use the word “retarded” and don’t know the actual common criteria of diagnosis of it must be a little.. Read More

Achoo Friday

No “Box in a Box” Lotus says it will not work I say you should try (I saw this idea at The Bloggess yesterday … and Lotus, I made this sweater just for you.)

The preppy crowd

(There are many things that this particular post is NOT meant to be, such as: mean spirited, sour grapes, bitter or petty. The things that I ask should be read with a “no really, I’m curious, and want to know your opinion” tone of voice, not a “why the eff would you ever do something like that” tone of voice. Just something to keep in mind as you read.) In.. Read More

Top Five Reasons to Wear a Baby

Yes this post is shameless. 5. If you wrap it right you don’t have to wear anything under it. No I’m not showing you photos. 4. You get two hands back when your baby is tiny and will. not. let. you. put. him. down. (Personal experience, and the EXACT reason I got my first wrap) 3. Carry that baby, lose that baby weight. 2. It’s one more tool in the.. Read More

How to make my husband fall in love with me

again and again and again. He’d been away on an overnight trip for work that involved some hella long hours and stress in a part of the state not particularly known for its culture nor class. As he was putting away groceries I noticed he was putting away some American Beer*. I gasped in shock. Me: Scout, you were away TOO LONG! What happened to you?! WHY did you buy.. Read More
