good idea to do a 100 things post.. I agree, very few people read my archives.. I know cuz I only get comments on like the last 2 or 3 posts, not the old stuff.
I would love to hear you recite the alphabet backwards. That would be cool...
JM
I have to wonder what it's like to have the time to ponder 100 things about yourself.
Holy narcissistic
Cuz, like...that's not a 5 minute job.
Well heatsink, couldn't you pretty much say that about having a blog in the first place? Cuz, like...that's not a 5 minute job either.
My point is, people who take the time to broadcast their thoughts to whoever is listening about stuff is eventually going to reveal things about themselves. But to call me narcissistic would be inaccurate. I did it based on seeing such a list on other blogs. So if you're going to call me anything, 'copycat' would be more appropriate.
