NOR is paying it forward

I like commenting on posts. It makes my fellow bloggers happy, it keeps us connected and it gives the ones that I like more motivation to keep writing. Plus, the other day I posted a comment on Jenn’s blog, You are flawed if you are not free, and won a prize.

Now for the part that matters to YOU. Having won that prize, I now owe the universe. Unless I mail out (small, cheap) prizes to three of the people who comment (chosen at random) on this post before Wednesday at noon (Atlantic Standard Time because otherwise I have no idea when to stop), I will surely be killed a la Final Destination.

Let me know if you want in but be warned that should you be lucky enough to win (cannot stress enough, SMALL CHEAP prizes), you will also be threatened with certain death should you choose to ignore the power of the blogosphere.

JL: Haha don’t let me get in the way of the BIG priorities!

Jenn: More features to come, yourself included, not that you need it.

Amanda: Oh prepare yourself for hilarity!

Chrissy’s video is pure gold. I laughed like ten million times. Going to have to add her to my reader! Thanks, Ben!

I’m oddly proud that I confuse you. This was my latest goal. Now I’ll have to set another one – I’m thinking take over the world, or do work today… hmmm. Decisions.

Friends it is ;)

I’m impressed you keep up with so many. Isn’t Google Reader a lifesaver?!

I just started reading Crissy’s blog, on account of joining the posse of gays. I’m definitely adding these other folks, too, now.

your so awesome Ben. I love finding new blogs to read and you always have some good ones.

I have my very first guest post by MrB who’s never blogged before, so if you’d stop by to leave a comment, I’d appreciate it. I’m trying to get him all the encouragement I can for him so he’ll write more!

That last guy is awesome. I am so going to click on his blog 37 times today because he deserves it.

Also I will send him money.

He would say, “thanks for the shout out.”

P.S. Send girl’s phone numbers.

I’m thinking of getting rid of my blogroll for that very reason. Might just do it yet.

In unrelated news, I had a dream that I met you at the county fair last night, and that the only thing I could think to tell you was that you looked remarkably like your Twitter icon picture.

Kristen April 26, 2010 at 4:33 pm

It’s an honor to be mentioned!

yay!

Thanks Ben!

I’m going to check out some of those other guys too. I know a few of them but not everyone.

Aaaaaaaaand my fat blogroll is now thanking (cursing?) you for adding more feeds to it. I think it’s a good thing, since it takes me now all morning to catch up on blogs. Catching up on blogs = less time pretending I like my job and do work.

I think I will require someone to write wonderful things about me every morning, it’s better then a cup of coffee!

Thanks!

P.S. you got a guest blogger award Sunday http://mominreallife.blogspot.com/2008/08/i-am-alive.html

I’m pretty positive that the majority you’ve mentioned are blogs I started reading a few weeks ago because of you. Yes, I blame you.

Maxie April 26, 2010 at 4:33 pm
