Fünf Stern Freitag: Edition #25

Before we get on with the show, I must tell you all how much I look forward to Friday mornings now that I have Five Star Friday. I get to wake up, drink some coffee, and read through the day's submissions. This is purely selfish, I'll have you know, because this has become my time to laugh, cry, and learn along with the rest of you without having to pull myself through the insurmountable drudgery that my burgeoning feedreader has become. Thank you.

Over the coming week, remember to keep an eye out for well-written weblog posts, and take a moment to submit the best to Five Star Friday for next week's edition. Also, take another moment to subscribe to Five Star Friday so that we can get together every week, and, if you so desire, put a badge on your website to let others know what we're up to.

And don't forget, we are also hosting Intrepid Tuesdays here on, well, Tuesdays, of course, which are set aside for you to promote your own writing. Check out our guidelines for submission, and take the plunge. We're an incredibly friendly audience, I promise.

Enjoy!

You're totally making me smile...and after the day I've had, that is an amazing accomplishment.

Can't wait to read them all!

thanks for adding my post to the list--I feel just a little bit famous, which is probably the best kind :)
