I’m not sure what Jason will be wearing for Halloween this year, but you can bet money on the fact that it will NOT be one of these costumes.

On the Road…
First, a *HUGE* Happy Birthday to Kathy – who won’t see this until tomorrow because she’s out of town … I hope you have a great time with your family this weekend in Austin!
Then it’s off to go camping for me. Jason’s last “Puff Up” Cub Scout camping trip is today. He’s in 5th grade and will be a Boy Scout soon; hard to believe this is the 5th time we have gone on this camp-out. Wow. I am normally pretty excited about camping, but it’s too hot! Why can’t they make an air conditioner for the tent? Oh wait – they do. It’s called an RV. We have loaded up the car and we are outta here! Y’all play nice while we’re gone, ok?
If I Knew…
Last night the topic of odd search results came up, and I realized that I hadn’t checked my search terms recently. Normally when I check them I see a lot of “blah,” “blog,” and “pink” search results. So I was a bit surprised that someone found this page today while looking “for how to get a big dick“. Uh, yeah. I’m single and I have been for some time. So I don’t think I’m the expert on how to get one. Sorry I can’t help. It seems that checking shoe size won’t help you either. Whatever is a girl supposed to do?
H-Town Snaps…
My camera batteries died last night shortly after arriving at Market Square Bar & Grill to meet up with Jish and the H-Town Bloggers, so I didn’t get many pictures last night. However, Matt has already posted his photo gallery of the evenings events – enjoy! My personal favorites are the group photo and our mirror shot. Yes, we are all crammed in to a very, very tiny men’s bathroom just so we can take that photo!
For the record, it has been said before by Jay and I’ll say it again … Everyone needs a little Jish in them. So if you should ever get an e-mail that he’s coming to town and wants to meet you – take him up on the offer. You won’t regret it.
Avoid the Label…
Spread the news – there is a new word on the street! Brought to you by Mike and the letter C:
Blurker (BLUR-kur): n. 1. One who reads many blogs but leaves no evidence of themselves such as comments behind; a silent observer of blogs. 2. One who reads many blogs but has no blog of their own; a blog-watcher or blog voyeur.
I know you’re out there. Want to shake that label off? Then leave comments! Leave them all over the place – here, there and everywhere! I read a post recently about “blog cliques” and that people don’t leave comments behind because they don’t feel part of the “group”. So here it goes … I’ll let you in on one of my big personal secrets. I have 3-4 “must-read” blogs that I hit daily no matter what. Sometimes several times a day. But after that, know what blogs I hit next? The people that have recently left comments!
So you want to increase your traffic? You want to meet new people and make new friends? Then don’t be a blurker! Come out, come out … wherever you are!
