Oh my god you’re such a cutie. Come to London 😉 (totally off topic)
GLADLY! I have always heard wonderful things! And thanks :).
I’ve typed http://www.goggle.com so many times it’s actually shown in my most visited websites list on my laptop! Doh.
I think we all have! Can you imagine life without Google? We might actually have to look things up in books and stuff! Thanks for stopping by!
I looked at the tags now that you mentioned them 😉 Which is ironic, since I sometimes write (what I think are) funny tags and then get sad when others don’t notice, then I don’t notice others’ tags. Fail.
Also, Jack has super long whiskers. They’re like, hitting your face from a billion miles away!
He is part mountain lion.
Roar?
RAWR!!! … he says, but it kind of came out looking like a yawn.
Love the yawn roaring.
I generally do look at the tags, but don’t always register to comment on them!
And yes, there is something about even writing a blog post that requires a large amount of procrastination – even though usually writing the blog post is a procrastination tool for something else in the first place!!
So true! I like looking at tags too. Some people can be pretty clever with them.
I’m not one of those clever people though! Maybe I should really look, in depth, at other people’s tags, and gain inspiration that way?
You beat me too it. Again. You’re crafty. I do all of the above x 10. I need to stop putzing around. Slap me Becca!
How could I slap that face?!
[insert smiley emoticon]
really? “alright”? that’ll get you detention. bring duct tape. and crayons. and pudding.
I did it in an e-mail to a blogger too and RIGHT after your big post about it. Repetitively writing it wrong has me in trouble. Instead of detention, you should just assign me to write ALL RIGHT 1000 times.
where did your mother and i go wrong?
NO.
where did your father and i go wrong?
Even more NO.
i abstain.
Hehe, you’ve got a beautiful, beautiful mind even with writer’s block 🙂
Two Beautifuls in one sentence?! Score!
Haha. I busted out my Batman headphones just so I could watch your video!! That and your post cracked me up 😛
I also hate the new dashboard layout. I’ve been doing the same thing as you!!! I know they’re trying to make it “better” but I feel like the new layout takes a lot of functionality away. Glad I’m not the only one who’s been using that workaround!
I am just dreading when our little secret shortcut disappears too. Haven’t they learned anything from Facebook?! GAH!!!
Thanks Ma’am! NANANANANANANA Batman! That was just for you.
Gaaaaaah I knooooooow!! I swear these sites don’t know what’s best for them!!
Ooh yay!! Thanks 🙂
The amount of time I spend not doing work while trying to write my blog is pathetic. The amount of time I spend not doing work because I am pretending to be writing is HORRIBLY pathetic. For real. Anyway, glad to know I am not the only one whose train of thought gets derailed like that. Heck, eventually, a post is born!
Kiran
That’s all that matters anyway, right? That ultimately a post is published? I say so. Thanks for reading Kiran and for making me feel a little better about my distractions ;).
I do believe that you write more in your comments than in your actual entry.
The new dashboard is so stupid.
You may be write. I mean right.
“Better write a post for tonight… just thought of something really good that I could post, but it won’t make sense unless I do it after Sunday… let’s read some other blogs instead… how do I get that widget?.. I should really be working on my actual work… Check for new comments…”
Damn right I looked at your tags.
Go Jill! You are the second one to notice. You get gold stars too!
Glad we all get distracted together!
Woohoo!
Cute, Becca. I love the pigtails and the wine look. And, who is the white kitty? I know you have mentioned her/him before. That’s a sweet kitty. Yes, you should write a book! Do it!
P.S. I liked the music.
The white kitty is Ace. He is the chill one. Tell me, was it audible what I was saying to him?
That music seemed so fitting huh? Thanks Amy. Oh, and Ace said, “hayyyy” and then he ran away terrified of what he just said.
Hahaha. Kitty Ace is terrified of me? Oh, tell him I just love kitties. I’m not sure I heard what you said. I was a little mesmerized by Ace, too, so I may have been a little distracted. The music was perfect!
Haha! Fair enough. Ace is not terrified of YOU he is terrified of EVERYTHING … including himself.
Silly Ace Kitty…doesn’t he know he’s adorable. Perhaps you give him a mirror so he can look at himself.
He might have a heart attack. I’ll just let him sit in the cabinet by himself like he likes. ;).
Becca, I’m so glad that I’m not the only one who gets distracted! It’s like that time whe
Hahaha! I see what you di-
Know what’s even more fun? Being a blogger who’s married to another blogger. Those thoughts go in circles and circles and circles and you finally realize that it’s out of hand when your baby’s first word is “tumblr.”
Pah!!!! That’s outstanding. She is going to be big in the blog world. She already is!
Yours is a beautiful mind, Becca.
That is all.
ADD maybe, but i’ll take beautiful! Thanks Hook.
If your writer’s block is this creative, I’m sure the book writing will be no problem.
Oh you :). Thanks. One day it shall happen!
The pigtails are so &*%king cute. Just sayin’.
They are quite practical for blogging. You should try it!
Give me 6 months and I will.
it wasn’t the naked chick you retweeted was it?
No comment.
Haha. I had that “I should write a book” moment one day.
So I wrote a book.
Outstanding. It isn’t just a thought, although I made it into a joke. I really am planning to begin writing my book in the next year or so.
You absolutely should.
Is your book published? (sorry if this question is naive)
You can find it right here:
http://www.amazon.com/%25ing-Read-Me-2/dp/1480177849/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1354225248&sr=1-3&keywords=peter+dewolf
The title alone! Outstanding!
Aaaaah you’re so sweet! I just recently switched to WP, no clue how it was before, all I know is that I’m still trying not to curse the entire house together when I write a post. it doesn’t matter that I write in Word first. I always have to edit or write it all over again. My mind can’t make up it’s own…mind. Stupid images that keep on moving around, stupid buttons I keep pushing because I think I can multi-task…
Anyway! FB & Twitter are the ones I spent most of my time on…deliciously evil. Delicious as I can stalk people…evil because it steals all my time!! Well, almost all my time. Loved reading this post and I kept nodding as I do the same hehe. I don’t have a cat though 😦
I’ll most definitely read your book when you write one 🙂
I bet that does get frustrating! I never write in Word for that reason, unless I am drafting a guest post or a post for IC or some other site.
I’d be honored to have you stalk me 😉
I think I am going to make 2014 book writing go time!
I knew I forgot something!! I’ll read your post on IC later. The Word thing sneaked in when I studied as I always had an extra file open for a blog post or for something else I was writing for fun.
Stalking you? Yay! I mean…*hides in the bushes* Don’t mind me.
It was an extremely complicated process to get my stupid phone to cooperate just so I could LIKE this post. That’s how badly I wanted to like it, damnit!
Looks like you figured it out! Thanks Nicole. High five!
Like one of those epic high fives where we run and jump and smack hands just as the camera freezes and some epic music is playing in the background?!
Is there any other kind?
God, you’re right!
I’m so glad I’m not the only one that thinks and acts like you do. I swear it has to be ADHD or something. I’m with you on the book idea too. If I could sit still long enough and NOT blog I probably could get it finished. I doubt it’ll happen soon though. I’ll probably find something shiny to occupy my brain for a couple of hours. Oh look! It’s a squirrel. Later hon.
I agree Renee. Social media makes it hard to focus on one thing at a time. I can’t just post. I have to post, share, promote, link, tweet, and like and oh my god my brain is melting!
The only thing I don’t do is tweet. Dear God if I connect in one more place my face my melt off. My brain is already shot! I think I need an intervention and detox.
They have already tried to make me go to rehab and I said, “No, no, no”.
HA! Heard that song this morning. Giggle.
I do most all of that. Except twitter. I sometimes all of the time forget I have a twitter. Same with pinterest, google+(which honestly I don’t know how that one works), social media in general. Maybe I’ve grown antisocial to media. Thank you for letting me ponder myself and social media on your blog. I needed that.
WP is sucking in everything lately. You can quote me. I ain’t scared. Hahaha
Ha! Ponder away. I don’t get Google+… or Klout… but the rest I seem to have down. I am just gullible for spam for some god awful reason, but I am learning.
Klout? I have never heard of klout… but it brings to mind blood clots so I think I’m good without klout. (see what I did there?)
Yikes!
Your video made me wonder how and what I do while painting and writing. Will tape myself while working to find out. Good post 🙂
Glad I could drudge up your curiosity! Thanks. You should post it and drop the link off here when you do.
I kinda wish I had a cute southern accent like you. It definetly makes you a better writer. (Obvi I can’t spell either)
You think I have a southern accent????????!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!
Haha, I just had to play your video again because I didn’t catch you had an accent at all. Needless to say (possibly), but I live in the south also so that could be why. 🙂
You think I have an accent too? Wow. Most people say they are disappointed that I don’t have one.
Where in the south?
Florida and I was born and raised to the age of 11 in Virginia. You’re in Louisiana, right? I’ve always wanted to go there.
Yes ma’am. Come on over any time. We will get some crawfish.
You know what? I used to love eating crawdaddies when I was little. Then I went to a restaurant last year that served them in my bloody Mary’s and I couldn’t bring myself to try and eat it. I’ve grown squeamish in my years so I think you egging me on could do the trick.
Crawfish in a Bloody Mary?! WTF mate? That does sound gross. I don’t want chunks of seafood in my alcoholic beverages. Thanks, but no thanks.
It wasn’t the meat. It was the whole cockroach looking sea animal staring me dead in the eye.
Wow. NOPE. Not in a cocktail. Ha.. tail.
Haha better than MY misplaced hodgepodge of one. Midwest meets east coast meets Aussie meets where the fuck are you from…
Hey don’t talk about my friend your accent like that. I dig it. I haven’t heard it, but I dig it anyway.
And this, dearest Becca, is why you inspire me. I’m even more inspired after gaining a ‘behind the scenes’ look at how a successful blog runs. I hope one day to achieve your level of success and hilarity.
I think the next post should have outtakes.
Ha! Out takes? No. I did it perfect the first time Twindaddy. At least that’s what I am going to go with…
Nobody does it perfect the first time. And outtakes are hilarious. Often times funnier than the finished product. We really can’t get a glimpse of the humor behind the curtain?
Twindaddy, don’t you worry. There will be plenty more videos to come. My plan is to start incorporating them with my posts more frequently.
I didn’t necessarily mean videos, but that’ll do. You know, more things like going to gogle.com and titter.com. Other various typos. Maybe you could include them at the bottom of every post. This is a good idea, actually. I may start doing this…
Go ahead. I just enjoy making YouTube videos along with writing. So yeah.
Well thank you for your blessing!! 😉
Becca, you are hilarious. I love reading your stuff. I would love to do some collaboration sometime! Keep it up!
Thank you Sam! That is what I am here for. I tried to go to your page, but I am getting an error. If you send me a good link, I will go check out your page.
Odd. It’s samsonlinejournal.wordpress.com and I hope that one works. Thanks for the reply!
I do all of these things. Yes, I do…
Thank you Cathy. I feel at ease now.
My favorite is posting, reading the post, then jumping back to edit and update seventy two bazillion times to correct the typos and update.
I blame our education system and the lack of twinkies.
Oh Guap. I used to do that a lot too. Then I had to force myself to be patient, write the post, leave it alone, come back and edit a bazillion times, and THEN hit publish. It was a hard battle, but I finally accepted that process.
It’s good to know your thought process when writing a blog. It’s not unlike my own. I’m easily distracted. I tend to get off topic. Where was I? Oh, I was commenting on you blog. Very nice.
Thanks. I am glad I am not alone in this. I don’t know how bloggers with multiple children do it.
Great tags Becca! You bet I did!
Red! You earn TWO gold stars for that.
Nice! Can I just stay home and tell work to fuck off too?
Sure, I did today. Well actually it is flooding here, but I am going to pretend that the real reason I am home is because I just said “fuck it”.
I believe the latter, you can swim right?
I can backstroke my way anywhere man.
See? I decided I’m going to work; but I intend to do nothing but work on my blog! 🙂
Muhahaha! We are peas in a pod.
So true. A “part 2” post is in my head demanding to be let out…
Becca,
That video did make me giggle. I don’t giggle well, I’ve been told, by my kids. I sound creepy, they say. Perhaps if I would put away the cyanide when I giggle…
Le Clown
If Le Clown is giggling, with or without cyanide, my work here is done.
Dashboard + iPad = Smashboard.
Whoa.
You could totally write a book. Me too. You go first.
And RIGHT (re: WP dashboard)?! I took me way too long to even FIND my dashboard yesterday.
I am in denial of the dashboard. If I just go directly to my site, I still get the old orange envelope and dashboard navigation. Take that WordPress layout people!
We could write a book TOGETHER!
