1. Do you feel an obligation to your blog and its readership? Or do you just post whenever you feel like it - - even if a day or two…or a week goes by?

With everything else in my life - my mood vary on this one. I don’t particularly feel obligated..because that makes it sound so much like a burden. I like to post everyday, if possible - - sometimes more than that. Sometimes, I’m a blogging maniac and I’ll have 10 posts in one day - - other times a few days will go by before I make a new post. It all depends on what is going on in life at the time. I don’t, however, stress out if I haven’t posted in a day, or two. Hmm….do YOU stress out if I haven’t posted in a day or two? mmmmdidn’tthinkso. ;)

2. How often, in a day, do you say to yourself “Hmm…I gotta blog that!”?

Frequently! Except, my problem is that by the time I sit down to blog about it - - I’ve already forgotten it! Just think - I could have some pretty phenomenal posts on my blog, if only I’d remember the topics I wanted to blog about! I should carry a notepad. Now isn’t that the height of blog addiction???

3. A list of blogs that have made you really think

I left a pretty wordy response in Linda’s post about porn. I’m not the only one!

Lachlan shares an impressive photo gallery of the hypocritical, mindless barbaric fucks. Can’t say that I blame him, none.

Vinny has something big happening. Problems is, he’s not tellin’ anyone. I bet’cha I know, though! ;)

Lawren graduates today!! Go. Now. Congratulate her - she worked SO hard!

Goldie is STILL answering questions like: “When was the last time you chucked? And why?”. Brave girl, that Goldie.

Rachel makes a touching Mother’s Day post. Go read it. Wish her a Happy Mother’s Day, too!

    thanks hon ;). I so badly wanted to share when the incident actually happened, but it was one of those things where you think “hmmm… do people REALLY want to know?” So when he asked, I was finally able to answer. ;)
