Blog Neglect Pt. 2 (aka Shout out to the Fans)

Wow! I had no idea you all were so eager to have me catch my blog up.
A quick check of my stats tells me I had 30+ visits yesterday.
I knew my writing was amazing, but I never expected it to take me worldwide.

I'm sooo feeling like Kanye today.

Bonnie's Ah-ha Moment

So I've been posting in the blog for a few weeks now...and haven't had any comments. Hmmm, I wondered.

I mentioned a previous post to a follower and she said she hadn't seen it. Hmmm, I wondered.

But life distracted me and I forgot to check it out.

Today I mentioned today's post to another follower and she said she hadn't see it. Hmmmm, I wondered. Again.

Life, you are not distracting me. I'm going right now to get to the bottom of this.

Ah-Ha.

Blog, meant to be public, was still only open to my "invited" list, which did not encompass many of my followers.

Now, public.

Yes, I'm a novice. But I don't pretend to be otherwise. I'm a writer, not a technological guru. I doubt Thoreau could or would try to navigate this site, either. So I'm in good company.

Enjoy, faithful companions!

Blogging

In general, I'd say I'm pretty technologically savvy.
However, this blogspot has me feeling completely lost.
I felt the same way when I created my FB account, and now I can navigate through it with no problems.
I know it's just going to take some time (which is limited right now) and some patience (which is limited always), and I'll get it under my belt.

Now if I can just help my friends figure out how to "follow" me!
It's late...that'll be a task for another day. :)

Happy Blogging, Y'all!

Off the Wagon

So yes, I've fallen off the wagon. Metaphorically speaking, of course. No, this isn't some AA intervention; you'll find no colored tags here: I'm talking about the blog wagon.

More than a year ago, I was determined to stay up-to-date with the quirky, interesting, and humerous happenings of my crazy, beautiful life, and man was that short lived! In fact, I had forgotten I had a blog page altogether until a friend mentioned running across it.

"Me?" I said. "Are you sure?"
Evidently.

So here I am again. One job, one boyfriend, one year later. Same amazing life, different decade. Okay, yes it's only a year, but technically a different decade. And the fact that I cannot even remember having written that last blog only makes the phrase "different decade" seem more appropriate. So let's give this yet another try: no promises, no expectations, just the opportunity to hear and be heard.

On that note...I have a follower. Yes, an actual follower.
It's the beginning of my fan club. My virtual fan club. Yippeee!

Truth be told, it's rather random to have a follower when I've not posted to the blog, nor have I attempted to search for and/or connect with anyone on the forum. But still, nonetheless, I have a follower. So much better to be a leader than a follower, in my opinion.

Hello: Mr(s) Follower.

Please stand in front of the class and introduce yourself.
We're all friends here. Well, mostly all of us.

More soon...
(++) As my friend James T. would write.
