Welcome! I’ve hit the proverbial jackpot of Blogdom….Blogger’s Blog of Note!
I’d hoped….I’d prayed…I’d practiced a minimum of one good deed every day.
Well, I might have skipped one day.
Okay, it was two…but my dog was really sick and I had to rush through all that traffic.
FINE. That’s a lie….geez, now my dog’ll probably get sick, just out of cosmic spite.
My point is that I’d dreamed of being Queen of something….and THIS SHALL DO NICELY.
You may note my IV, Clinton Kelly. He’s been by my side since the start and has no shortage of witty, hilarious words of wisdom. You can search his name on the upper left if you’d like to hear what he’s had to say.
I’d promised myself I’d beg ask all you fabulous readers to sit and visit a while…I do believe I’ve got some good stuff in here…somewhere.
Stay! Follow! COMMENT! As fellow bloggers, you know how we loooove our comments!
And if you can, I’d love for you to read the incredibly talented writing of my Blogbuds. The ones listed on my sidebar…and especially this fabulous few that I’ve known the longest:
Chrissy at I Shoulda Been A Stripper: Smart, funny & brave enough to put “Stripper” in her title.
JD at I Do Things So You Don’t Have To: A daredevil…a rebel…a force. Truly hysterical.
Gay Guy/Straight Guy: Two incredibly classy guys with a sense of humor & the most amazing take on…simply everything.
Nancy at F8hasit: A powerful writer. No matter what the subject, her posts will stay with you long after you’ve left her site.
Kathy at The Junk Drawer: She boggles my mind. One of my mentors-what good blogging should be.
Jen at When Pigs Fly: She's profound. She's gifted. She's a must-read.
Ron at VENT: How to describe Ron? Hilarious. Unpretentious. Witty. Charming. Did I mention hilarious? Seriously.
Thanks so much for checking me out. I hope I’ve made somebody in Blogville smile….

Thanks so much my dear for mentioning me. Very kind. I always enjoy your blog and what you have to say. I fear I have already dropped the ball on the whole Twitter thing. Just thought about it while commenting. Too many things to do.
Congrats on making the coveted BoN list. Nice blog...lots to read and see. Wanted to "follow" but didn't see that -- did I miss it?
I'll look around a lil' bit more. Keep the good stuff coming!
