Hello??? Anyone there? Hellooooo? So another day without any readers - how do I keep finding myself feeling like this? It is like I am in elementary school again and my best friend that promised me she would play with me today - didn't show up.
Am I the only one that stalks my own blog? You know I
tried to not get so caught up in blogging and social networks but I am human. Do you check your blog and email 50 million times a day to see if SOMEONE has responded?? *hand shoots up in the air - "ooh, ooh, THAT'S ME!" Do you read other blogs to get ideas for your own in hopes that others will read your blog and not comment on the fact that you stole someone else's idea?? Do you really post up very embarrassing life events in hopes that SOMEONE will read it and say - hey that was funny or feel sorry enough for you that they leave a post - where is that follow button again? Do you get angry when you see that many people have visited your blog but failed to respond to it???
Yep - I think with the progress of technology, psychology ALSO progresses to new levels - don't believe me - I have blogaphrenia with an acute case of bloggeriasis. Please cite my new age tech blog dictionary for confirmation.

hehe - I admit it I admit it! I leave my yahoo email up ALL DAY LONG and every 1-2 minutes look for new messages. Actually, I've found that if you leave the window open, in the tool bar at the bottom it will say (1) Unread so I know to check it. Okay, I'm way way way stalking my own blog too! At least we blog stalkers have each other!
