Here we go lurky looo, here we go lurky lie....

Okay, okay. I admit it. I have voyeristic tendencies. Mostly late at night, because I have wicked insomnia. There. I said it. Happy now?

So, before you go and get all huffy, atleast let me explain. I lurk. ALOT. In other peoples blogs. I'm constantly in awe of the creative, inspiring and just plain crazy people I have run across on the internet. Why do I not post you ask? Well honestly, I wish I knew the answer to that question. Sometimes I think I'm a tad bit shy, other times maybe that person has so many complimentary comments that mine would just seem lost in the sea of "oh, it's lovely", and "such a great talent you have"'s (gee, can you tell I overanalyze everything?).

In an effort to out myself, I thought I'd let you all in on my secret blog crushes. Shhhh...don't tell!

I have a strange obsession with joli kiwi. If you read French, head over and check him out. I cannot seem to get enough of his in your face writing style, not to mention, he has amazing taste and posts some drool-worthy photos. Check out the Le Pitch link to learn more. Not only is Joli Kiwi one of my faves, he's also helping me learn naughty French words. I owe him. Big time. And he has no idea. De toute la manière en Arizona... merci Joli Kiwi! Grands baisers!

I've also recently discovered Julie at Flip This Body. I'm not quite all caught up with her blog, but I'm getting there. I cannot begin to tell you how inspiring she has been, and she doesn't even know it. I've been battling my weight for what seems like forever and reading her blog is actually getting me excited about losing this last 20 pounds. Not to mention she is uber-adoreable, and has amazing bangs.

And no, I don't just like hockey because of the beefcake..I really do know the game inside and out. Seriously. But this site just might make every girl a fan. Hubba Hubba

So.... who are you stalking these days?

Oh well...You're too cutie to just lurk...pop off the shy and comment! I lurk quite a bit on "famous" bloggers sites, mostly like you said, because after the first 20 comments, what would mine mean? I am loving though, the connections I've made when I comment on a few peoples sites, and they reciprocate...it's too fun! Plus...you never know who might show up with lemonade...

Oh, the weight blog is too good. And inspiring. I am so wanting to get back into all the walking and not too much eating I've put aside this week because of um...issues. I feel quite dissapointed in myself even though I didn't do any of this heath stuff on purpose, quoting you my chickie, "...sadie, no one wants a..." OK then! But with the ever changing weather up here, we will certainly be able to get out and enjoy ourselves more won't we?

Maybe we should do a challenge? Oh...funsies, let me know! We'll overanalyze and make up rules and everything...

Ah yes, the lurkers. I have a slew of them on my site, and I always wonder, "who is this?" So, I'm trying to be better about leaving comments on sites I visit. . . at least once! :D Like yours...

But, on big blogs I don't even bother unless I have sure fire witty thing that hasn't already been expressed 15 times. :D

I'm here via Chikenbells. (and I'm teaching myself to sew too... this summer it's French with the 10 year old!)

wHAAAAA???? THAT'S ME!!!! Now I have to go back and actually read it. I got so excited I just hit comment as soon as I saw my blog name and something about inspiration. I'll be back in a flash!

Julie said...

Ok, I'm back. Uber-adorable??? MOI??? :-) Cute bangs???!!! Yay!!!! How funny that I just added you to my blogroll and then I read this. I'm bumping you up to my "Top Blogs" section so I remember to come back and visit more often. I am too guilty of "lurking", as well as just not ever leaving my little blog house to visit others. I've always been more of a hostess than a party guest, so why should I be any different in the blogosphere? :-) I also don't comment many a time because I feel I have nothing to say but, "I get you" or "That's awesome".

Julie said...

p.s. that's awesome

;-)

I am, truly, honored to have that kind of place in your everyday life.
