A Call For Superior Weblog Entries

Tuesday, April 1, 2008

Today is Tuesday. I am not a fan of Tuesdays. They fall right after Monday, which as a post-weekend reintroduction to beige cubicle life, does not create a great setup for the workweek. Tuesday is the day before Wednesday, which it pales near, because Wednesdays, being in the middle of the workweek, are able to see the hope that is at both ends of the beige cubicle life cycle.

Tuesday is like cold oatmeal gone lumpen like leftover breakfast.

But! See that? There is a bright But! here. You can all help with the suckitude that is Tuesday.

You see, I completely realize that I allow Tuesdays to be what they are for me. I slothfully roll back into the bowl of glutinous porridge and let it envelope me. It is disgusting behaviour for one who would be the master of her own path.

What I want is some really, really very good weblog reading material from the internets (that's you), because nothing lifts my spirits and my creativity quite like good writing. Please leave links in the comments to recent webly excellence. It can be your own entries that you are pimping out or those of others that you think should be read.

You will help me crawl out my Tuesday doldrums, and we can all share weblog entries like a reading circle gone amock.

Have at it! Give me your best finds. We can broaden our horizons and see what's out there. Plus, who doesn't love a little extra link love?

I lurk around on lots of blogs, but being hungry just now, this one seems like the most appropriate one to recommend. I've never commented on it before, but this lady is so passionate about food that you can't help but be drawn to her. And her recipes are well worth trying.    Kimblahg well, i don't know about superior but feel free to head over to my site. last week, i wrote about what to do when you kids poop in the bathtub and if that ain't quality reading, i don't know what is. www.kimblahg.com    Poppy Buxom Right now I'm writing about fish tacos, and how something I just ate for lunch turns out to be a euphemism for the female genitalia, and how, if it weren't for my readers, whose minds are clearly in the gutter, I would still be the innocent Snow White of the blogosphere. Or something like that. I'm not actually sure what I said. But feel free to come over and suggest yet another euphemism for poontang.    ByJane you're probably not old enough for this, but you will be--eventually http://tinyurl.com/2dxl4n    sassy I don't know if it's superior, but I talked about my own naked body yesterdy, and my naked rse in public today. Sex sells, eh,    sassy OK, clarification - not talking about my naked arse in public, but rather bared it (accidentally) in public and talked about it on my blog. And my naked body was of course in the pricacy of my own home. http://tiny.cc/ikkLg (the arse) http://tiny.cc/TFc0T (the nekked)    Rachel I'd like to thank you for providing me with Tuesday material. I'm not superior by any means (but hey, don't you like my tactful modesty?), but here is my blog: http://thatnight.net/    juliet small ernst i would like to suggest this blog: www.haroldlovesmaude.blogspot.com and then, humbly, my own: www.touchtouchpublishing.blogspot.com :)    Kizz I was going to send you to Jen Lemen but I see she's already commented so you've probably checked her out. Dooce just linked to a fascinating photo project where the artist takes photos of people both before and after they die. You can go read me if you're so inclined, a couple of days ago I wrote a little paddle through my stream of consciousness that I thought was pretty funny but...most people didn't think so when they read it. Oops. www.117Hudson.blogspot.com    Crystal www.dotandmae.com c'mon it's good for a little smile!    Amy at Fannfare All you commenters need to have some confidence! I love all the ones I've read. I updated for the first time since idontknowwhen and have a new masthead to boot! http://fannfare.com And, Sweet/Salty always gets me, whatever she writes. She has such grace... http://ingliseast.typepad.com/    Caroline My favorites might be familiar to you already. I am a shameless whore for Teh Funny, and I suppose my bloggy tastes reflect that... http://www.dooce.com (Dooce is a great writer and photographer, and I love her sense of style almost as much as her sense of irony.) http://www.iambossy.com (Bossy's currently on her solo blogger road trip across the country! So exciting!) http://www.missdoxie.com (Leigh, an Atlanta attorney, hasn't posted since 12/4/07, but her archives are a wealth of howlingly funny stuff. Don't miss the Viking Baby Funeral video!)    NonRunner What a great idea! I'm always looking for new fun reads, myself. I post here: http://nonrunnersblog.blogspot.com/ Lately, I thoroughly enjoy reading entries from: http://in-it-but-not-of-it.blogspot.com http://waiterrant.net/ http://saintvodkaofthemartini.blogspot.com/ http://www.mooseinthekitchen.com http://highfivefirstdate.blogspot.com/ http://www.lisabindacity.com/ http://cheaphealthygood.blogspot.com/ http://lifegoesonithink.blogspot.com/    erin I feel you. I have been scouring the whole Interwebbery looking for some good reading material for those boring times of the day that usually span about 8:30am to 4:30pm. I found yours while reading up on the Bloggie nominees. One of yor co-nominees - www.soveryalone.com - has captured my attention, although the jury is still out as to whether it is fact or fiction. From one Prairie girl to another... -erin (a Manitoba-born Calgarian)    Sparkling Red My own post from Monday went over rather well. Got a lot of LOL's on this one, so maybe it'll make you chuckle... Baby Boo-Boo    Melissa http://donotovermix.blogspot.com/ They crack me up, every time.    witchypoo I salute you for the porridge references on a bad day. My day was so bad, I had great blog fodder and could not bring myself to craft a story about firemen barging into my home. Sad.    Amy Yay for the Schmutzification of Tuesdays! This blog is 100 percent guaranteed to entertain: http://mindyephron.blogspot.com/ There's also my own, which is mostly just guaranteed to entertain my mom: http://chickenbonejones.blogspot.com    Jen Well, here's my most recent entry: http://olivespearls.typepad.com/knittersknitters/2008/03/el-sobrante.html and here's a blog I adore, on knitting and the creative process in general: http://www.lenealve.blogspot.com/    Jules What a great idea! If you like Johnny Depp, you'll enjoy my post from Monday. As for the ones I put more writing "oomph" into, anything in my sidebar listed under "H.O.J.'s Greatest Hits" are the ones that get the most site meter traffic! Jules House of Jules    Tintenfisch If strange, flightless birds take your fancy, feel free to meet one here...    Leaf, probably... Well, I can't start my day without checking out Ree, the Pioneer Woman: http://thepioneerwoman.com/ She writes amazing, side splitting posts, takes amazing photos, cooks with a lot of butter, and is in te middle of telling the story of how she met and married her hubby: http://thepioneerwoman.com/category/black_heelstractor_wheels/the_night_i_met_marlboro_man    loren Well, you already know about my site, and I only wrote about boobs yesterday. That or feces are the topics of choice. Or the lack of sex life. If that amuses you (apparently it amuses some - I get a kick out of my "counter") I encourage you to go for it. Personally, I'd like to suggest that you read some of your own stuff... it's pretty good :)    dk thanks luv ... that will get me through tomorrow ... my bloggedy brain is belching bullshit and I seem to be stuck on the alliterative track at the mo'    Ozma I missed this...it is now Wed. But here is a youtube video of an elephant painting its self portrait. It almost made me cry. But I'm a sucker for elephants.    Ozma Crud. My comment forgot the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LHoyB81LnE    Kelly My favorite post I've written is here http://ordinaryartblog.blogspot.com/2008/01/how-routine-trip-to-grocery-store-can.html Who knew that produce shopping could be so darn powerful! Awesome idea. Thanks for the new reads.    Stine I recommend www.breedemandweep.com if you haven't seen it already.   blog comment guidelines post a comment ~ Subscribe to Post Comments [Atom] ~ main page
