Randomness Part 27

Okay, I just made that number up. Every once in a while I just put some random thoughts together to "clean house." This is not one of those times.

Visitor Statistics
I just passed 30,000 visitors earlier this week. What I find interesting is that the number of pages visited has increased to a little over 2 pages per visit. I get sitemeter's e-mail message weekly but really don't pay too much attention to it. Guess I am a little busy right now because I used to look at those weekly reports all of the time, and I have not really looked at them for . . . I can't remember when. I don't blog for eyeballs glued to my site. It is flattering when I am down, sort of like eating creamy ice cream – makes one feel better but does not solve any problems.

Speaking of stats, this is Kat's 100th post. Okay, I don't really know much about Kat, other than she has her tongue pierced. Okay, you know I love to give good head, but I am not going to pierce my tongue to enhance the experience.

Site note here: language is so interesting. Did you notice what I did? I inferred that Kat got her tongue pierced to give better blow jobs, but I did not explicitly say that's why she did it. Oh, how I love language. But she is probably a really nice person, has a nice life, and sooner or later, she will be popping Prozac. Just need more life experiences.

Bored, Bored, Bored
I noticed that Mike is taking a break. Just needs some time away from blogging. And I miss that "no picture" guy. I mean, his broken link to his picture bugs the crap out of me, but he visits my site early. And I visit his site.

I am bored with my site as well – that's why my entries have been sub-par. I mean, the writing is still okay, but the subject matter sort of sucks. Either that, or I am just sort of blah, and I can't see my blog for what it is worth. Not sure what I will blog about tomorrow. Was thinking of doing something a little different, but let's see.

Writing
You know, I started this because I like to write. I don't always have something to say, but I enjoy writing. Well, I came across the following (below) the other day, and I nearly peed myself laughing. Oh, how I love language. I have never had an orgasm because of words alone, but if it is physically possible, I may one day do this! I just love language that much.
