My Thrilling 300

Tuesday, January 17th 2006

Tonight, as I settled down at my computer to write a post that had been cooking in my head entitled “My Uncle is an Ass”, I was reminded of something. Before I made it to the write page to begin my vent, the WordPress dashboard caught my eye and I remembered that my next post - this post - would be #300.

300

Now I can’t let that big day pass me by without some sort of notation (see annoying marquee) and I surely don’t want to spend it dwelling on my family member’s lack of couth and common sense. Instead, I would like to have some fun with you. I want to start a 300 Things About Me List and I want you to help. Just kidding!!

Seriously, I do have a question for you and since it is a special day for me, you’ll answer- right? Good. I would like to know how you know me. How did you find me? What blogger brought you my way? I want to know because I am a curious soul but also a thankful one- and I am thankful for each and every one of you.

So…Spill it. How is it that I have the honor of knowing you?


If you really love me, feed me in your reader!

You love me.  You really love me. Dontchya?

  • I am happy to have found you by checking aka_Monty’s blogroll at The Daily Bitch.

    Congrats! :yahoo:


  • I found you in my arms on 7/29/73!

    Best that you let your vent rest but thanks for the shared frustration!


  • MommaK, I believe it was from Michele’s Meet and Greet. Here’s to the next 300!


  • ? I don’t know! I think I was browsing the Housewife Mafia list, and your blog was on someone’s blogroll. I really don’t remember how I found Leanne’s either!


  • Hmmm…
    Could it be Jazzercise and the school’s car rider holding pen?
    I’m thinking that might be it..
    xo

  • mmmmm…Probably thru obsessive blog-hopping. Then I dared to de-lurk and wah-lah here we are.

    congrats on 300! :yahoo:


  • Hoss sent me the first time.

    I come back of my own volition.


  • Misty at Soapbox.supertstar sent me your way.


  • I found you through my SIL Heather! “This Moms Life”


  • Actually, from the blogrolling updated blogs list!


  • I was able to reach your blog throught the Thursday Thirteen MommaK. Love your lists so I keep on coming back for more. :giggle:


  • Congrats on the 300! I’m looking forward to the next 300

    I believe I found your blog by clicking your name on someone’s comments. Who? I have no idea, but I’m glad I did


  • I have to love Unga Chunga’s answer…awwwww.

    I cannot recall how I found you! Perhaps at Michele’s or the blogger-formerly-known-as-Shoehound’s blog. :wave:


  • How did we find each other? I can’t for the life of me remember - but thank god we did.


  • I think it was through a comment on another blog. I have no idea which on it was. Happy 300 MammaK!


  • I think you visited my TT way back in the early days when Leanne only had 20ish of us. I returned the visit and love your creativity, sanity(yes, sanity) and style. Here’s to 300, and Hip! Hip! to 300 more. Congratulations.

    My blog has been derailed cuz of a stalker, so I will lurk for a few weeks before re-emerging with a new face.


  • (Awww to your Mom’s comment…

    I think I saw you commenting at your cousin’s place and probably through Michele’s Meet & Greets.

    Congrats on #300!!! Woohoo! :pleasantry:


  • I think you came to visit me through FTS’ blog first. Then I had to keep comin’ back for more of MommaK!


  • Excellent, excellent question. Do I have an answer? Nope. I can’t remember what great force brought me to you or you to me, but I am SO glad it did. I love it here! Happy 300th post and I wish you all the best on at least 300 more. Now I am wondering where I am at postwise. HA!


  • Sue D.

    Happy 300th and best wishes for many more! I found you via Busy Mom and this is my first de-lurk. Am also a big dog person…loved the picture of your gorgeous girl. javascript:moreSmiliesAappendSmiley(’:wave:’


  • Uhhh… wait, I know this one…


  • I (thankfully) know you, because the wonderful Raehan welcomed my blog when it was brand-spanking new in a post of hers, and you came to visit! Remember? You told me about that great stranger video….


  • P.S. Sorry about your ‘Skins…


  • I’m assuming I met you through Michele.

    Now come on, why is your uncle an ass?


  • I think I found you via Millersville right after the drama some asshole started between us :rant:. I think…does that sound right?


  • I started visiting after a T13….you always have such interesting things.


  • I can’t remember exactly, but I got you off a “b**groll” of somebody else — I think friends or relatives of yours who have a child that now would be about 10 months old. That help any?


  • D

    :duh: Can’t remember… but it’s been good ever since! Love to visit you here and I get so dang happy when you comment over at my place


  • I found you in the parking lot of my son’s preschool with your cute Prada pants when you rescued me from the friend we call “Lara”! I think…


  • I haven’t a clue which of us found the other. Of all the things I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most…


  • :sing:You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, when I met you.

    Actually, I think it was through TT or Sleeping Mommy

    Either way, glad it happened, and Happy 300th!


  • I either found you through Michele’s Meet and Greet or on Lucinda’s site. I forget. Just glad that I DID find you!


  • You know, I honestly can’t remember how I found you. I think maybe through Michele’s meet and greet? However I found you, I’m so very glad I did! :lovestruck:


  • Sherry

    My sister started a blog around the same time as you…..and I was searching around to check out other blogs and came across yours. This was something and new. Your site was great and no bullshit…and you liked SURVIVOR!!!!
    Sometimes when I read your entries…I feel like I have known you for years.
    Keep blogging my friend you are appreciated.


  • I believe I found you through Monte at The Daily Bitch.

    Happy 300!!!!


  • Congrats on the milestone!!

    I found you through Miss Michelles Meet and Greet!! (And I am so glad I did!)


  • I have absolutely no idea. I’m sure I found you through someone else’s blog…

    The question I’m asking now is– How is it that I’ve never met you in person? Because I sure do feel like I have!


  • How do you know me? Good question!


  • I started out stalking you, but see I’m so overt and deceptive that you didn’t even know it.

    Then I started sending you subliminal messages through flashing banners on miscellaneous websites to come to my blog. Then, the same day that happened, I deliberately photographed something so captivating that I knew once you saw it you would never leave me or my blog, and there it began.

    So, See, you really found ME. heh.

    :mischievous:


  • I believe it was Sleeping Mommy. :yes:


  • i’m pretty sure i found you through Leanne. i know i found your site when i started doing the Thursday Thirteen, and i’m pretty sure it was through a link at Leanne’s.


  • PS: happy 300!


  • I’m betting it was Michele who introduced you to me, but I’m not entirely sure.


  • Chrissy

    I don’t remember the exact date. Somewhere around 1988 or so. But it did involve a uniform and saddle shoes. Was is soccer or West Side Story? Congratulations. Love your blog. Love the chance to reconnect.


  • My brother’s located in Okinawa and Old Hoss knew that one of YOUR relatives was over there, and told me about it. I think(?)

    Also, you just love me and my blog, and couldn’t live without me… ;o)


  • Hope

    I am sure it was through Angie. Whatever way, I am glad to have found you (not that you were lost). Happy 300th post.


  • It was True Jersey Girl who introduced us, however I think we really have Ciao Bella and their crapola really thank. In fact, I think I might just type up a thank you note to whathername right now! :sarcastic:


  • Honestly? I can’t remember. I do recall seeing your blog on BE and I do remember finding you through…someone’s blogroll, maybe Sleeping Mommy, maybe True Jersey maybe Bluegrass..maybe…maybe.

    But I can’t remember which one came first!


  • Every time someone asks that question…I have to think “Is this a trick question? Do THEY really know the answer? Am I failing the test?”

    I don’t remember how it came about…do you? If so please tell me so that I can re-live the wonderful memory. I’m just happy to be here. *smooch*


  • Probably Michelle’s weekend meet & greet!


  • It’s so long ago that I can’t remember, but I’m willing to bet that Michele sent me.


  • Your cousins sisters friend of the mailmans auntie and I are good friends. :giggle:

    Seriously, I think I found you through Mary @ Fireflies and Frogs. I’ve since started playing the T13
    Did I pass?


  • I’m pretty sure I found you through Guppyman.

    Happy 300th!


  • I am visiting for the first time from Shelli’s Sentiments. :wave:


  • Thru Michele, back when your old blog was sick. I saw your plea and tried to help save you. :winking:


  • Goodness, I can’t remember. It must have been through Angie, I think. Or Raehan? Ok, now tell us about Uncle Ass.


  • Same as Dena, I found you through Misty at Soapbox Superstar. Either through a comment you left there or from her blogroll.


  • I am pretty sure I commented on your guest post at Michele’s and then you visited me. I am glad that we met, even if I am not entirely sure how. ;-)


  • AM

    I probably found you as being a loving big sis, although I can’t remember.
    Please write the post about our uncle. It is so much fun to bitch about them!
