After I got divorced, three of my girlfriends also got divorced, and we hung out and created our own “eligible bachelor list”. Well, either my demeanor really is that high-maintenance or my list is too demanding, because all three of them are now re-married AND they are all pregnant (one pregnant with twins)! Now we all know that I’m not re-married, and with all the cramps and PMS’ing I’m experiencing right now, I can accurately predict that I’m not pregnant.
I was surfing my friend Lizabeth’s website, and see that one of her clients was Caprice Crane (I read Caprice’s book, Stupid and Contagious a couple of months ago, good book). Anyhoo, I learned Caprice is the daughter of Tina Louise (Ginger on Gilligans Island). Interesting.
Before I read that book, I started to read Do I Need to Slap You?, but realized I wasn’t in the mood for a beating, so moved on. Then I realized that the author of that book, Michele Hickford, was the same Michele from Muleos.com that sent me some free shoe straps to review on my Shoeaholics Anonymous website. Small world.
I stocked up on some books from the Barnes & Noble bargain bin. I’ll see if I can find anymore correlations. Oooh, that word ends in “ions”, maybe I should add that to my category definitions.
What I’m Listening to on iTunes: “Face Down” by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus I first heard this song when a classmate of my daughters sang this song at the 6th grade talent show. I was impressed with his singing and have loved the song ever since. His dad is also a musician and sang “Closing Time” by Semisonic the night I met my boyfriend, Patrick. And no, he didn’t take me home. That night anyway.

Even though I’m a fan of Joel Comm, I was a bit disappointed that I fell for his spiel and bought a word on his 500words.com site. Looking at my stats of the site I bought the word for, I’ve only had 5 referrals from his site since buying last month! And I can’t say my traffic has increased for link popularity either. Not a very good ROI. I bet I give him more hits to his site from this post for FREE!
I beg to differ (I’ll even argue if I have to) with his concept that “Why waste money on an image pixel ad that provides no search engine benefit to your web site?”. Because this very site (HouseForKim.com, in case you forgot) is already indexed in Google, and according to my stats, the majority of my Google visitors are using the keywords in the title tags of the images on the homepage. I personally just searched some random title tags of the advertisers, and 5 of the 6 were on page one of Google for this site! Hmmmm. Maybe Joel changed his mind because his statement is no longer on his website, just cached.
Gotta give it to Joel for being a smart guy, though. He went on to re-sell his 500 word idea by selling his Link Sizzler software. Chris Pirillo’s Rent My Chest word site is cool and should have made my free shameless plug section. I bet he’d get more visitors if he was female!

Does anyone else remember as kids receiving colored baby chickens as Easter presents? Maybe it’s just a farming community thing, but they were the cutest things. Then they grew up only to get their heads cut off for fried chicken.
So last night I had this dream that my grandma gave me a box of 11 colored baby chickens to raise for butchering. Long story short, I lost 9 of them in the house. I’ve been hearing a lot about dream interpretation, so I googled it.
According to DreamMoods.com….
To see chickens in your dream, symbolizes cowardliness and a lack of willpower. Chickens also represents excessive chatter and gossip. Listen closely to what people may be saying about you or what you are saying about others.
Well, obviously that was a little depressing. On to the next site, FreakyDreams.com…
Words like chickens: Easy available. They represent fortune in love, joy and happiness all aspects of your life.
Much better. I’m definitely available. And I did have what I thought was news about friendship or romance happen on 7/22 just as my personal psychic predicted. If the rest of her predictions come true, on 8/2 I should be so rich that I can take this site down and live happily ever after! Hey, a girl can dream…
