Ahh Refreshed

Today is day 3 of Greg and I having a good night’s rest. For the past three days we have waken up at 6-7am, Caesar too. I did however have another weird dream. I was in Dominick’s a very expensive grocery store, so expensive that they closed down by my mother’s house. I was shopping for diapers and I couldn’t find them anywhere! I ended up just buying a blue watch -/ .

Caesar needs a face tidy, so off to the groomer we go! After that, we shall head to Chicago.

What Makes A Blog Favorable?

I’ve been doing some thinking and I was debating if I should write this post. I decided to.

Why do so many people like Oprah? One may say because she’s always giving away freebies. So if Oprah didn’t give away freebies, would she be less favorable? My Super Sweet 16, would 3/4 of the people screaming OMG I LOVE YOU *insertnamehere*! be doing so if the teen throwing the party wasn’t rich?

So about blogs. I go through many a day. Some of which throw contests on a regular. Would their audience be shortened if they didn’t throw contests? I threw a contest for the first time and it was a success. I may throw a few more. But I don’t want to be liked just because I’m giving something away for free. I enter a few contests on blogs, I appreciate a good contest but I also continue to visit and try to comment not only on contest entries.

So truthfully, what characteristics in a blog makes you want to come back for more? Lurker’s come out!

Just because it’s not at the top anymore doesn’t mean it isn’t available for discussion.

Another Baby Dream

Good morning! *stretch* It’s a gloomy day today, hopefully things will brighten up. I have a lot to do before tomorrow. We are heading back to Chicago for the holiday.

Last night or this morning (whatever) I had a baby dream. This is not my first, ugh. In this dream, Greg and I were snuggling in the bed with the newborn baby in between us. We cuddled him/her and gave him/her kisses. The baby even had that delicious baby lotion and milk smell. Please, make it stop! Caesar slept with us last night. When we woke up today he snuggled in between us just like a little baby. He does this frequently. We have him ruint.

Greg and I are gonna work on the drawing for the Kangaroodle contest now. I shall return!

What The World Eats

This post is dedicated to Heather’s post What The World Eats. Since Greg and I aren’t going to be doing any shopping, I decided to take a picture of one of the cupboards. The snack and spice cupboard isn’t all that important so here’s the “main” cupboard.

cupboard

In this cupboard: pastas, super old ramen noodles, bags of croutons, tea, coffee, mashed potatoes, jiffy mix, pancake mix, canned fruits, veggies, and soup (yea it’s healthier fresh, who cares)

So go on over to Heather’s site to participate!
