In Which I Solicit Your Opinion

Published by Ree under Your Thoughts, random thoughts

I’ll be here today.  All.day.long.

I have a couple of things for y’all though.

  1. Y’know those “who’s stalking me” plugins?  Is it backwards stalking?  Because even if the reader doesn’t comment, it still shows that they’ve been there?  If you don’t comment here, would you want your identity showing up there?  (No, that’s not entrapment - ha!)
  2. Don’t forget - if you have a favorite gardening website, leave me a comment here or send me an email at ‘reereep[at]gmail[dot]com’.
  3. Garage Sale hints.  Mr. Hot and I are embarking on our very first garage sale ever.  Leave me your best hints and warnings!  Because, y’know, oh mah holy hell.  We’ve got lots of junk crappe priceless extras that we need to get rid of.

—- And now I must go break up the argument that is happening - over someone’s inability to put a sandwich into a baggie…. Sigh —-

Which is Saddest?

Published by Ree under Your Thoughts


Your Linguistic Profile:


65% General American English

15% Dixie
10% Upper Midwestern
5% Midwestern
0% Yankee

What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

that I scored higher in Dixie than Midwestern or Upper Midwestern? I knew that using y’all would be the death of me. As June says, “Bless Mah Heart.”

or this:

92%DRUNKARD

I have a problem with this test though. As you move through the questions, you have fewer and fewer choices. At the end of the quiz - so at the end of the quiz, there’s 2 questions and 2 answers. And I missed that second-to-last question the first time.

or this:

Mr. Hot is upset with me because that “eye picture” that I posted here? He used that on his phone for when I called. When he found out I used it on the web for some contacts and GoogleTalk, he was visibly hurt. I haven’t even told him yet that the picture was on my blog BEFORE I sent it to him. Because he thought it was a special picture that I took only for his use. And I’ve somehow destroyed that “specialness” by using it here. (But it was here first!)

So, anyway, I removed it from GoogleTalk, but I can’t remove it from the post because it pretty much renders the post, um, unfinished somehow. And he’s taken a new picture to use now, so it doesn’t even matter that I’ve taken it down, because, y’know, the WORLD has seen it. Sigh.

I know he’ll get over it, but y’all? I feel bad because I really had no clue that it was that big a deal. And I used it here before I sent it to him, so REALLY, it’s just a picture of my freakin’ eyes. Sigh again.

Anyway, vote. Which is saddest?

Do You Love Me?

Published by Ree under Your Thoughts

I love you. Do you love me?

If yes, click here.


If no, bring me a tissue so I can cry.

—- If you have a few minutes, help BlogHer by taking the survey. And you could win a pass to the Blogher event of your choice! Y’all! I’ve already taken it. Maybe we can meet up if we both win! —-

Tell Me Where to Go…

Published by Ree under The Blog Itself, Your Thoughts

…and I don’t mean there. thankyouverymuchsnort. (Yea, I know. I hear that suggestion enough.)

But wait! Before we get to the meat of today’s question, thank you for letting me get that off my chest yesterday. Blondie is really a perfectly nice, very sweet person - and I agree with those of you who said she must be pretty insecure - there are other indications of just how insecure. For now, though, I’m simply going to listen and nod politely and if I really have something that needs to get done, I’ll tell her that I simply don’t have time to listen. If I can’t help it when my eyes glaze over, (ask Mr. Hot, it happens when he blathers a bit too long, too), then, oh well. Glaze they will. I’m not perfect. (snirk. Brought that full circle, didn’t I?)

So, today’s question is for all of you super-bloggers.  (Even if you don’t consider yourself a super-blogger…you are!)

Because I can’t seem to stop screwing around with this site, and because I had 283 hits the other day (!!! - highest.evah!!!), and I know that I’m in this for the long haul (361 more days anyway) - I’m thinking of moving to a externally hosted site. Still using Wordpress - but because actually hosting on Wordpress kinda sucks (no javascript, no plug-ins) - and I want to be able to offer you more (like CommentLuv!) - that means I need to move.

Sigh.

Again.

Glad I saved the boxes.

My address won’t change, so there’s no work involved for YOU (because my 2008 blogolutions are all about you), but I have some questions I need answered. And y’all are the ones I always run to. (No, seriously, it’s true. Shhhush.)

So, bullets!

  • Who do you use to host your site and are you satisfied with them?
  • I know that, in order to use Wordpress on an externally hosted site, you must install something. Do you install it on YOUR computer (locally) or on the external site? If you install it locally, can you still use more than one computer? (i.e. my work laptop and my home desktop?)

Somewhere out there, I know there is someone that will help me figure this out. I’ll take help wherever I can find it. (Except from the person who came here after Googling “omg U SMELL LIKE PEE”. WTF?)

So, help a Hottie out, eh? In return, I’ll make sure the CommentLuv plug-in is installed, which will mean every time you comment, your latest post will get a link back. (Go see witchypoo and Sarcastic Mom - aka Lotus to see what I’m talking about.)

—- Maybe later I’ll tell you about Shortman and the very awful, oh-so-terrible, not fun at all, BPA tournament from Hell escapades. He deserves pizza for his efforts today. But not until he gets that suit off. —-
