In the Home Stretch

Question for the long time readers: When I said I'd blog for THIRTY days straight, did you think I'd still be at it over 420 days later? Yeah, me neither. However, here I am and the finish line is in my sights. I can see a bit of exhaustion (or really, the funkitude I'm trying to fight), in that I'm not full of topics of conversation the past few days. Recently, Ed made a statement "You're signed up for next year, right?" Actually, there hasn't been a peep of a Blog 365 for 2009. Maybe there is somewhere, but Google hasn't found it. Nor do the forums have a topic posted about next year's even. On January 1st last year, there were around 1100 people signed up. Now the site shows 1563. Any guesses on how many of those people made it through the whole thing? I know that Steven is still at it, Sandy , Lou and a few others( Jess ? Can't remember if you're in the ranks still, since you post at the other blog.). The rules were re...

Thirteen Down, One to Go

I don't know what happened. I had three topics for Soundtrack Sunday over the course of the week, then today? I can't remember a single one of them. Perhaps I should just write them in draft mode next time and save the entry until Sunday. Two things about music: Why is it that when video games try to use authentic music from an era, they get the crappiest music around? Ed's beaten Grand Theft San Andreas, but the new version he's playing is like the Worst of the 80's. It's so bad I want to suggest he turns off the volume when he plays (which is what I really want in the first place, but the music really drives me crazy.) It's really weird when the nine year old is singing Bob Seger because of some stupid toy commercial! Every once in a while, a show or a commercial will have a favorite song, I'll start to sing along, and Chef says "What The.." that mom actually KNOWS the song. Anyway, the title has you wondering, right? Today is the la...

Borrowing an Idea

This may be a brilliant idea, or it may fail miserably. If it does, at least I tried. Many of the bloggers I follow have, at one time or another, opened up the comments to questions from their fair readers. I just saw it on LouCeel's blog (pointed to it by Joyce, who has become a blog addict!) and realized, hey, I've never done THAT before. Granted, most of my life is an open book on here, but there are things I don't blog about. Still, I'm sure you have questions that I've never addressed or perhaps, something that will become blog fodder if it requires a long essay type answer. So, wonderful readers, the floor is open. What have you been wondering about Suzanne that I have yet to answer? Now is the time to pose YOUR questions! Ask away, and you may just get the answer (then regret even asking). I do reserve the right to answer your question privately if I don't feel comfortable answering it on here! Thanks to all of you who've inspired today's ...
