The World Just Keeps Getting Smaller

August 7, 2008 | I Just Logged On My Internet, Other Bloggers, Signs of the Apocalypse

I wrote a post yesterday about how my son wants to play for the Washington Redskins. As a long time Buccaneer fan this comment spoke to me:

August 6th, 2008 at 10:01 pm, suzhasbighair Says:

i’ve been a buc fan since they wore those horrendous orange colors!

we’ll always make room for you down here sarah- and for your goon squad!

So I immediately e-mailed her back. I explained that being from Tampa myself, I too suffered through the creamsickle days.

Then she e-mailed me back and said she grew up in Tampa too and she told me where she went to high school.

My high school.

She graduated before me and since we didn’t actually overlap any years we started naming people that the other one might know.

I said Did you know Michelle [name deleted to protect the innocent]? She was my best friend’s sister.

Suz replied: michelle and i were best friends at  [jr. high] and then soph at chs…  so you were friends will jill???? CRAZY!

Crazy indeed. If she hung out with Michelle I have probably met her before. I spent a good deal of the late 80’s and early ’90’s over at Jill’s house. What are the odds? Now that makes TWO people I have met randomly through blogging/commenting that went to my high school. If you add that to running into my sorority sister at BlogHer last month it really seems like the world is shrinking.

Go say hi! Suz doesn’t like to use capital letters, but we won’t hold that against her. Especially since there is a strong possibility that she bought me beer before I was old enough to buy it for myself .

Because I Have So Much Free Time

May 23, 2008 | I Just Logged On My Internet

You know what I was thinking the other day? I just don’t write for enough blogs.

I’m kidding.

Still, I am adding two more sites to my list.

The ladies at MamaPop have asked me to join them. How can I say no to a group of such talented smart-asses? I think I’ll fit write in. (With the smart assed part at least.)

In addition, Devra and I have started a fitness/work-out/weightloss blog. We’ve decided to call it Loser Moms. Get it? We’re losing weight? Well, hopefully we’ll be losing weight.

So yeah. That is what I am up to. How about you?

Top 50 Female Bloggers

January 16, 2008 | I Just Logged On My Internet

Has anyone else seen this list?
Top 50 female bloggers.*

I don’t know if the list moves around, (nor do I know if it carries any weight) but when I checked I was #49. I just squeaked in.

Then again, there were 86 ladies on the top 50 bloggers list and I’m not sure how the order was calculated…

Should I feel exposed having my alexa ranking out there for all to see?

* Now the list seems to be gone. You are just going to have to take my word for it. I’m not sure if he was just redoing the math or adding people or if there was some other problem with it. I suspect it may have had to do with some omissions that would (sadly) knock me WAY out of the top 50. Some people who are way more important and have much better traffic than I do weren’t on there.

More Chanukah Fun

December 7, 2007 | I Just Logged On My Internet, Other Bloggers, Sports

… and I’m not even Jewish.

In honor of Chanukah this year, Devra celebrated by showing me The Jesus of the Week on her Blackberry at the Redskins/Bears Game last night.

In all fairness she was looking for Cheesus Christ and the Peep Jesus both of which were funny enough to risk eternal damnation and missing three minutes of the game. 

Cheers.

You Will Never Believe This

Happy Chanukah. I guess this special is for non-practicing Jews?

I Twitter

December 3, 2007 | I Drank the Kool-Aid, I Just Logged On My Internet

I finally caved in to the peer pressure.

I joined Twitter.

And I follow Henry Rollins.

twitter_friends

Mostly because I am dying to know what on Earth Henry Rollins would twitter about.

Holy shit. I just used the words “Henry Rollins” and “twitter” in the same sentence. I can honestly say I never thought that would happen.

Anyway, feel free to come and follow me. I’m guessing it will be a lot like here but with less pictures. Lumpyhead’s Mom wanted to know if it was just a place where she could find out if I was drinking beer or on the can (her words, not mine). I told her I would report back after I figured it out.

How would you describe Twitter?

Calling All Techies

September 14, 2007 | I Just Logged On My Internet, Questions For You

I have a question for all you techies out there.

1) My laptop looks like it is getting a signal, yet I can’t go online or check my e-mail from there, and so far it seems to be working other places. 

2) My desktop seems to be working fine. Even with the router hooked up.

Do I need a new router? Or do you guys know of some super secret reset thing?

Thanks,

Sarah

Rethinking Your Decision

August 28, 2007 | I Just Logged On My Internet, I Love Beer, Other Bloggers, tourists

I know that you people voted almost unanimously for drunken rants from my vacation instead of guest posts, but I just read my last two posts.

After I fixed a bunch of spelling errors (at least now my post from yesterday makes more sense - sort of) I began wondering if you aren’t regretting your choice.

You can still request guest posters. Actually, if you want I could probably even peer pressure Aunt Bob and LHM into guest posting live from my laptop.

Now that I’m thinking more about it, odds are that it would just be more drunken ranting anyway.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll just post pictures.
