There's drama in the mommy blogosphere? I hadn't noticed. Really. I'm serious. How sad is that! You'll always be a top human/mommyblogger in my book. What? There’s drama in the mommy blogosphere?

Also I am with Angie on the plastics thing. The darn lids keep falling on my head when I try to get something out of THAT cupboard. I get frustrated and swear at it every time. Isn't plastic supposed to make our lives more convieniant? I am with you. Also I am with Angie on the plastics thing.

I guess it's just a matter of perspective. I think I'm on Alltop because I emailed them when it first came out and asked to be included. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be listed.<br/><br/>There is A LOT of work that goes into blogging. I think that success lies in the writing, though, eventually. Sure when you begin it's all about linking and commenting and blah, blah, blah, but for people who are truly talented, the writing is what keeps them at the top. Which is probably why I SO GET how HARD the "business" of blogging is, I can't rely on my writing.<br/><br/>Phew. All that said and what I'm trying to get at is that you really are a good writer and an entertaining blogger/storyteller. Keep it up and I'd almost bet that you'll have legions of followers and be featured on Alltop and invited to dazzling parties. It just takes time.<br/><br/>Now onto replying to comments. I guess it's something that I enjoy because so much of what I say is about starting a conversation or asking a question. I feel COMPELLED to reply to many of my comments because they've made a good point or asked a pertinent question.<br/><br/>I've never been invited to any of those things either and YES, I"M FINE. FINE! *ahem*<br/><br/>This concludes my longest (and most incoherent) comment ever.<br/><br/>Thank you and good day.

Phew. All that said and what I’m trying to get at is that you really are a good writer and an entertaining blogger/storyteller. Keep it up and I’d almost bet that you’ll have legions of followers and be featured on Alltop and invited to dazzling parties. It just takes time.

This concludes my longest (and most incoherent) comment ever.

Thank you and good day.

I never started thinking I was going to become a "super blogger" or be invited to company focus groups, etc. <br/><br/>I would like to have my blog grow (of course)), but I'm not going to devote every spare minute I have to it. If something like that ever happens, fine, if not I'm happy too, but I'll join you in the AllMedicore. :-) Great post, and I SO agree w/you on the blogging thing- it is more than a full-time job trying to promote your blog, and personally, with 2 kids under the age of 5, working part-time, I just don’t have the time.
