I wanted to let you gals know of two things I am participating in.

Bloggers Unite - Blog Action Day Blog Action Day is on Monday.

"On October 15th – Blog Action Day, bloggers around the web will unite to put a single important issue on everyone’s mind. In its inaugural year, Blog Action Day will be co-ordinating bloggers to tackle the issue of the environment."

If you want to join in you still have time. I already have a section on this blog dedicated to going green so this topic is familiar for me.


NaBloPoMoThe second thing coming up is NaBloPoMo. When I first saw this on alydabear’s blog I was like hello girl spell check haha. Come to find out it stands for "National Blog Posting Month." I think it should be only National Blogging Month it’s much easier (in my head at least). I blog almost every day so I figured "what the heck let’s go." To make it more interesting I decided to come up with one theme that would last the whole month. So I will be doing the ABCs of life in your twenties. The first day will be all A things – adjustment, etc – you get the idea. So that leaves me with a few days at the end to figure out (open to ideas). For all you lolcat lovers isn’t the badge so funny.
sidenote: If you don’t like lolcats I think we will have to break up because clearly it’s not working out.

  • haha...lolcats are wonderful aren't they? I tried to explain Icanhascheezburger to someone the other day and it was a fruitless effort. You have to see it, I guess.

    Hooray for NaBloPoMo! Hooray for uber cool chicks in Texas!

  • tiff- There are a lot of people joining in NaBloPoMo that aren't using a theme, I just like to have structure, it makes my life easier. Glad you are joining in.
  • Michelle
    i was thinking of doing a theme too. i'm having blogger's block just thinking about it. glad to know that other blogger's will be around on the weekend! hopefully comments will get us all thru this! :)

    oh and anyone reading this who doesn't like lolcats -- we'll have to break up too. sorry, it was fun while it lasted.
  • Are you kidding? Everyone loves lolcats!! :D
  • NaBloPoMo writers unite!

    I'm adding you to my blog log...I love your theme....I should probably think of something similar or it might go horrible arye.
  • In the event that anyone else is in the same boat as Natasha you can check out my previous post about the lolcats
  • I looooove lolcats.

    NaBloPoMo .. I guarantee any new bloggers doing it will be able to type it out with correct capitals after the month. ;)

    I'm in Blog Action Day too, though I'm still debating what to discuss.

    xo
  • I have to admit that I had to Google lolcats... but I'm a new fan, and have a much greater appreciation of that NaBloPoMo badge. And I agree, NaBloPoMo is an annoying word. Blog is only four letters - why shorten it to three?
  • I can't imagine anyone not enjoying lolcats! I wish my life consisted of lolcat exchanges instead of normal conversation. How hilarious would that be?
