Blog Love

aka The Shoutout Post
aka Lots O Links

Basically, this post is going to be dedicated to other bloggers.

I'm going to start off with JerseySjov, because she showed me how easy it was to add wordpress accounts to my page.

Because of that, I am currently listening to a mix of music provided by Nic Lake. I know I do a lot of music posts, but I may have to join him in Music Mix Up Monday. I've already discovered a cool new band (new to me) Number One Gun.

Also, wordpress allowed me to connect with another music fan, DrBrainspiller.

Staying on the music, do you like reviews? Check out some of Mike's finest work. I swear, this dude needs to be in magazines one day.

Some new followers to the blog include Allison and Liz. Looking forward to reading more of their stuff.

Some of my favorite bloggers have returned recently. The Caped Tirader! (sort of, haha) and Faker have both come back and their return is great news.

Jaime, who has the coolest way of spelling her name, has also came back. But to a new address and because of that, at press time she has only two followers. Please don't allow this to continue.

Kayla is also relatively new, but she is awesome because she is a bowler and because she is Canadian. Ok, there is more to her than that but she was my first Canadian follower, so that's awesome.

Before I forget, I must give shoutouts to the bloggers that have been here with me since around the time I started. Natalie, Miss*H, and Melissa are longtime readers. I have been slacking on you guys lately and that sucks. Consider this my way of making up for it (please).

Hey, can I pimp myself while I'm at it? I have a movie blog that I've been slacking on. But I posted a new one today and I hope to have that trend continue.

One person who reads that blog and watches some great shows that I am currently getting into is Cassie. She is literally my second follower, and the sister to my first...

My first follower and the one that got me into this whole thing is my best friend ____j. I mean, I was in her wedding. On her side. How much bester of friends can you get?

And lastly, I want to end this with a couple stories. You know, it feels great to pour myself out there and have people actually get to know me. (For example, if you see any advertisement for the upcoming Wrestlemania, I do hope you think of me). So it was really cool that when Coldplay played a new song at a show and the video surfaced, Lisa was quick to send me a message. About that, and some Jimi Hendrix on Rock Band which totally made me smile.

Sara also was quick to let me know about some new Coldplay, as well as sending me photos and texts and calls from her Muse concert that I was unable to attend when they came to Atlanta. But she let me in, horrible view and all :) (sidenote: you want comments? Follow this girl. It's a given).

Lola Lakely also attended a Muse concert... AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN! I was fortunate to get a pic AND an attempted phone call. She is a gamer, a red head and in my personal opinion a female Tyler Durden.

And the final person to get a shoutout is someone that embodies the last couple stories. She is always quick to give me new music, she also sent me a pic from her Muse experience AND she effing met Lola during her recent road trip. To say I am jealous of her is an understatement. Of course I'm talking about jeanette.

So, next time you are bored and need somebody new to read, come back to this post. Check these guys out. Give me some brownie points and tell em I sent you ;)

And if I get up to posting it, tomorrow's Wordless Wednesday will be epic. Either tomorrow's or next week's. One of them will be epic...

  2. Um I'll try not to be offended that you didn't mention we're blog besties. ;) Just messin with ya baby!! I'm going to just crown myself Queen of the Muse concert because you got all three from me. And let's be real- TWO phones calls. Everyone around me thought I was nuts but no folks..it's call blog bestie dedication. And your Muse shirt is coming (like starting Friday)! It's actually the same one I got which sucked because *secretly* I was hoping yours was better and I would jack it and give you the one I got. Sorry. It's the truth though. ;) And my view was the shit in the end. Srsly.

    But thank you anyways my love and now my reader is going to be blowin up. :)

  6. @Allison:
    Yea, I saw the Irish themed playlist. If I have Sundays, Nic has Mondays, and you have Tuesdays the blogosphere is a great place to start the week :)

    @Sara:
    I left out important details, my bad. And a person would be a fool to complain about a free shirt :)

    @j:
    Life's greatest question

    @Nic:
    Yea man, new bands and new songs by bands. I like you doing it every other week too. Maybe I will sneak mine in the weeks you don't do yours. Stick around on Sundays, see the best of what I have.

    @jeanette:
    Yep, you have the inside info. And that is why your name was the headliner haha.

  11. Awwwww, a mention!

    Thanks for making me sound like a huge outcast. Bowler and Canadian? Geez! :)

    Just kidding, being an outcast will make people come to my blog more.

    Which they all should.

    Good post! Will follow some of your mentions.

  12. @JSjov:
    Haha yes, you came in first. Your ribbon will be in the mail shortly?

    @Jaime:
    Yes, I love pushing music but love receiving it just as well. Yea, I've had to reach out to some guys as well. We gotta stick together, right?

    @Lisa:
    Seems like forever, right? If we are ever in Cali at the same time, we're hangin ;)

    @Kayla:
    I know it was sarcasm, but outcasts can be cool... but Canadians are just cooler. I'm going one day. Have fun following them!

    ReplyDelete
  13. I'm Canadian too! Does that mean I'm cooler?

    ReplyDelete
  14. @Allison:
    I actually saw it on your profile and I smiled. Yes, it actually does make you cooler

  18. How did you add wordpress blogs to your page?

    ReplyDelete
  19. @Cassie:
    Go to the actual blog and copy the address. Then in your reader there are two buttons, add and manage. Click on add and put the address in there.

    I wanted to smack myself when I realized it was that easy...

  20. The ways in which I utterly adore you just keep multiplying. The female Tyler Durden , huh? I think this naughty red head loves it.
