The Bloggess

So here’s the thing.  I’ve been blogging for a solid 2. 2 years now and I think we can all agree that I’m still pretty crap at it.  

 

If by crap you mean I haven’t been discovered and scored my own talk show/book deal/3am infomercial yet.  Which sometimes bothers me immensely but mostly I think, ” Why the hell would I want my own talk show?  I mean I’d have to get up at some ungodly hour, leave the kids with a nanny, traipse into a tv studio via a limo to get my hair and makeup done, throw on some sort of designer frock arrangement, before quizzing guests about why they slept with their best friends husbands second cousin for a solid 25 minutes AND taking home a mega huge pay packet.”  I don’t know about you, but that sounds AWFUL.

 

While wallowing in my complete and utter failure to make it as a Big Time Blogger, I stumbled across the most awesome blog written by The Bloggess, with this brilliant post cleverly titled “15 things your absolutely must know about social media or your face will melt off and get eaten by goats.”  iiiiiiii know.  I was terrified by the prospect of my face melting off too.  

 

So I read the post ASAP, laughed hard at every single point and then, because I’m nothing if not thorough when it comes to snooping, found this post, which has to be the funniest thing I’ve ever read on all of the interwebs.  

 

 

I encourage you all to read it and then come back here and note two things:

 

1) that post has 3,935 comments.   So I think we can all agree that The Bloggess is officially The Oprah of Blogging and

 

2) it’s our 16th Wedding Anniversary this Saturday.    

 

If 15 is BIG METAL CHICKENS, what the hell is 16? I don’t know about you, but I’m stumped.  

 

I mean, I’m fairly sure 16 is BIG WHOPPING DIAMONDS for the wife, but what on earth is it for the bloke?  

 

Suggestions will be gladly accepted in the comments section below. Where, FYI, I average 2.5 comments.  Which is just slightly short of 3,935.
