kattallp Do I look overly happy and short in this photo? It’s not my fault. I was actually overly happy to be hanging with one of my all-time-best-internet friends (is that even a category anymore?) Kat from the world famous Mama is Losin It. And she is glamorously tall.

You may recall, Kat and I had our first date last year –when Drew Barrymore couldn’t stop looking at my boobs. No really- there is this photo that proves it.

Once upon a time, I had 90 blogs in my blog reader. NINETY that I read every day. And now? I don’t even use my reader. I just check in on about 5 of them. And Kat’s is one. Her blog is hilarious, smart and genuine…..which is exactly how I would describe her in person. Well that and tall. And she is annoyingly pretty. Which kinda pisses me off.

So our second date went really well. And no awkward goodbye kiss either. If you haven’t been on a Blog Date. I highly recommend them. It’s great fun to socialize ‘in-human’ once and a while ya know.

Well looky here- it’s an ad for a Fishin Suit. Not to be confused with a FISH-ING suit, which is a totally different thing. Cuz this-a-here is a genuine FISHIN suit, which is more casual and fun and includes solid metal O rings. It’s available in a rainbow of colors for both men and women [...]

You rocked my (Blog) world.

This week I attended Blog World Expo and New Media conference in Los Angeles. I was thrilled to be asked to present my session all about managing communities online. And while you would imagine the session part to be the main focus- it really was so much more than that. I often use the phrase [...]

“Google Plus is a blog-killer”

No other phrase out of my big mouth  has been questioned more in the last few weeks. I said it during my BlogHer panel, during my PRNews Webinar and to anyone else who will listen from the first day G+ launched. “Google Plus is a blog-killer.” Since I am receiving emails asking about this declaration, [...]

Who are you writing for?

marcyssocial

Who are you writing for? And  YES grammar-nazi’s I am fully aware that the title question ends in a preposition, which is why I can start off by saying I am NOT writing for my 10th grade honors English teacher. Or my Medieval Literature too-much-cologne-no-I-don’t-want-to-discuss-it-over-a-drink professor either. Or any of my past fabulous teachers (holla [...]

It takes a village to raise a blog.

Thumbnail image for It takes a village to raise a blog.

I get asked frequently about the design of my blog, if I host it on my own server and who creates all my buttons. So I thought I would pop in today and give you some of my resources: See My Designs does the bulk of my backend work. Shauna is a code genius. And [...]

How to be a blogging success. Sorta.

IMG_8083-1

  Success. It is a tricky word. And as in most professions it is a moving target. Blogging is no exception…. When I began to blog I remember thinking “if I can get 100 readers a day I will be able to relax and I will feel like I am a success”. I even wrote [...]

SkyWatch Friday

IMG_3430 copy

Yorba Linda Country Club, California   The funny thing about Southern California is while it is usually 90 degrees on Christmas it can very easily be cloudy and a cool 65 degrees on the first day of Summer vacation. Newscasters around here like to call it ‘June Gloom’. But it never stops my kids from [...]

AdTalk: Bowling makes me HAPPY

3145512580_02b912ba85_b

“Instead of bowling, Janie decided to entertain the on-lookers with her Irish Jig across the lanes.”   Perhaps inspired by Alice, I have made plans to go BOWLING on a date night with my husband and another couple. I have never really officially bowled before. Oh I have put on the shoes, ordered a beer [...]

The classics. As I see it.

Okay the suspense is killing me. Can anyone please tell me WHAT the top secret Christmas-tree shaped project is??? What could it be? One of Marie’s dolls? How about plans for another creepy brother-sister talk show come back? Maybe it is the book of Mormon as told by Father Osmond. Oh someone tell me!
