Dr. Horrible

"Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog"

So very funny and only free until Sunday night so hurry! IMO Act II is funnier than Act I. Neil Patrick Harris + that guy from Firefly + Joss Wheadon = very funny stuff, a super villain musical? LOL.

*Hat tip to Mama B for posting this link on our local homeschool forum.

In Friendship

My next blogorific task I am setting out to do is to comment more on other blogs. At least for this week, to let people know I am still reading. I have about 30 blogs in my reader. More that I am a sometimes visitor to.

So my first challenge to you all is to comment on some of your favorite blogs too! Especially if you never have before. Some of my current favorites I found through people commenting and/or my stat reader letting me know a lot of traffic was directed from and lo and behold- I'm on their blogroll! LOL

My second challenge is to find two new blogs you like and tell me (or on your own blog) about them. New to you. How? I'm going to take my blog ring for a spin and see what I can find. Sometimes I get curious about blog names in others' blogrolls, sometimes a blog is mentioned in a post and I check out the link.

*Edited to add- my blog rings are not working. Gah. I'll fix them later tonight.

So there you have it. Happy 10,000+!

Art For Food

ART FOR FOOD.

I wish sometimes that I had the time and energy to jump back into the local Historic Preservation movement. I did some good work for it, but the movement flows on without me just fine, whereas my family does not. I admire LB's efforts to do something for a cause she cares about in a neat way. I plan on sending her a photo (snail mail printed). For my 10,000 visitor celebration, I'd like to invite any readers who are artists to consider this very worthy cause.

Also, if anyone has a favorite photo of mine that you think I should enter, place your vote! Here are four I am considering:

WOW! 10,000+

I just noticed my ticker. I am amazed and in awe that people read this blog, but thank you. This little blog has helped me vent, record, develop a photography habit (I mean hobby!), keep in touch with relatives, and despite my inability to pick up a phone (sorry LB! The floods happened and even though we weren't underwater, I got distracted! I plan on calling soon.....) develop friends, local and online, and that has been a real blessing.

I plan on coming up with something to celebrate 10,000! You, know, once I find my kids under the laundry and feed them. LOL!
