No, not you, Laura and Kimberly. You are the good kind.
I'm talking about the bad kind.
If you've seen my house - and most of you haven't b/c it is nasty and I have issues with space invasion (not the alien kind) - you will know it is a filthy repository1 of clutter of every kind. My sisters call it The StuffMart.
So it may be surprising that I HATE computer clutter. My desktop must have the minimum of icons. My folders and files must be cleaned out and organized. And, I have discovered, my blog feels too cluttered! You may not think so by the new background and what not, but that can be tolerated (for a while) due to the jolly holidays. I'm pretty sure it'll be changed before Thanksgiving to something more soothing to my eye.
But you may notice that the major change is NO MORE BLOGLIST! Please don't take it as an offense. In fact, it is a compliment. I have so many friends and family whose blogs I must read, that it made my sidebar feel very messy. Scrolling down, down, down. Plus, link-hopping makes me nervous. DON'T BE OFFENDED! I don't mean people who I know, and we are interested in each other's lives! I don't mind being on y'all's bloglists at all! I just feel, I don't know, kinda traitorous (personal issue) to y'all, my friends.
Did I stress enough that y'all are my friends? I feel like I'm going to hurt someone's feelings, and I so do not mean anything as offensive or snobby or irritated or [insert negative reaction here].
Ok, all that being said, if you were blog-hopping on my bloglist, and now you have lost the links to the blogs you were reading, PLEASE let me know! I will hook you up!
(You are my friends! I love you! Hop all you want TO my blog! You just won't be able to hop away. MWA HA HA HA!)
1Repository
a) a facility where things can be deposited for storage or sakekeeping (check!)
b) a burial vault (check! You can bet your stuff will be buried under mounds of other stuff, never to be seen again)
c) a person to whom a sectret is entrusted (ok, that doesn't apply to my house, but I'd like to think it applies to me)

Thanks for the clarification, Jen! I was concerned for a moment there!
And fortunately I wasn't using your blog list as a jumping off point. I have all my blogs bookmarked!
I have to ask who the guy is at the top of the blog.
That is my lover! Really. It's Mark Harmon in the role of Leroy Jethro Gibbs, the main character of my most favorite show NCIS. Let's be clear - it's Gibbs I love, not Mark Harmon.
I will not be offended since you never took the time to put me on your blog list to begin with.
You are affecting my ability to become a blog-celebrity! I want to be famous in the world of blogs! How dare you!!!!!!!!!1
That's hilarious that while Liz was putting in all her exclamation points she let go of shift and there's a 1 at the end.
Listen up, Boss Blog: I put you on my FOLLOWERS list on my dashboard so you wouldn't be EXPOSED! Little did I know that you would be exposing yourself to the whole wide web!
Liz, you are a celeblogity on your own blog. Don't be greedy.
People, do you see how she talks to me? She was ridiculously concerned about offending someone by taking off her blog list, overly reassuring everyone that they are still her friends. But look at what she says to me.
It ain't right.
Jen I am deeply offended by the lack of a blog list. I don't know how I will ever recover from this slight. Whoa is me.
Blog Hog - RESPECTFULLY suck it up.
