dots- glorious dots!

June 11th, 2008

I know I’m suppose to be bloggin’ to relieve stress, share ideas and have a written record that will mortify my boys some day, but lately I’ve become obsessed with my Cluster Map.

My buddy at Any Mommy Out There? (check her out - she’s great) showed me this map. It not only keeps track of how many hits you have a day, it also puts a dot on the map of where your fellow blogger is bloggin’ from. It is fabulous. Not only do I have a strong following in North America (all 5 of you!), I also have people checking me out in Europe, South America and Australia!!! How did that happen?? It is so exciting, but now I want more. Wouldn’t it be great to get a dot on every continent?!

For the last two days my number of hits has been in the 20’s. I know that is lame to people like my brother who has thousands of hits every day, but I’m psyched. And I want more - it is kind of sick. I haven’t gotten to the point that I’m bribing my kids so I can blog in peace - well okay just once, but I really had some good stuff I needed to get down- like I said - little obsessed.

Hey it isn’t alcohol or pain killers - just bloggin’.

And dots.

Come on Antarctica, show me the love!

    Not that I believe in or endorse or would ever employ bribery, but just curious, as to what works with the kids when you want to blog in peace, as you say?

    hi I hope I am giving you dots…do the weekly memes like Wordless Wednesday and you’ll get dots from everywhere !

    My kids do not do bribery - chocolate only lasts 5 secs. The almost 15 yrs old is good for a hit though - keeps the twins occupied for a good bribe.

    Well go on with your bad self! I hope you reach all the countries in the world. That would be cool! I can only offer you a dot from TX. :)

    Um, your fellow dot addict here. I hear you girl. My love of dots borders on an obsession. Okay, it is an obsession, but it’s a fun one!

    I get so excited over my 20 hits, too. Baby steps, right?
