I'm tired. I spent no fewer than five hours working on my soon-to-be-unveiled blog, importing archives, updating links, lamenting the fact that I'll have to reload every Blogger picture I ever posted to my TypePad account to guarantee those photos will be visible for every page reload.
I'm taking tomorrow off to iron out as many of these issues as I can, so Luke won't be left wifeless for the next several weeks. Better posts are on their way!
Edited to add: Assignments for the "Hello? Is It My Cheesy Love Song CD You're Looking For?" Internet Swap were e-mailed in the wee hours Tuesday morning. If you signed up for the swap but didn't receive an e-mail with a group number, contact me ASAP.
Thanks to some fabulous promotion on your behalf, blogger friends, we received 24 participants (including Dawn and me). How cool is that? It was very hard placing everyone into groups, but part of the reason those with blogs are encouraged to post their playlists online (after December 1, so we can all do it together) is to allow you to see how others approached their CD and possibly do some additional swapping on your own. Once the CDs are mailed, I'll post links to everyone who joined so you can conveniently access your cheese with a single click. And of course, there's still the matter of voting on the Cheesiest Love Song of the collective bunch.
Happy downloading!
Did you see my post yesterday? The one that was possibly the worst writing I've ever done. (If you missed it, don't rush over to read it. Because, seriously, it's bad.) Yeah, the sole purpose of that post was NaBloPoMo.
And the 5 hours spent importing archives, etc? I just went through that in August, so I definitely feel your pain on that one. Good luck finishing it up -- I can't wait for the unveiling!

Got my list this morning and grabbed Gage and went right out to Walmart for new cd's and some soft plastic cases.I didn't realize that I would feel so stressed about my songlist. I want it to be something that will be enjoyed. I have decided to include all types of tunes and age isn't an issue. I will now worry about the order in which the songs will play. YIKES!!

Good job on all that programing stuff. I am sure it will be super.

I am so sad that I'm not participating in the love song swap. Darn you, dial-up internet! May the fleas of a thousand camels infest you!

I can't wait to see the new site! I can't believe you are taking off a day for blogging. That, my friend, is true dedication.

I'm going to come to Indianapolis so you can teach me your wise blogging ways.
I just figured out how to make a second sidebar category for my blog lists...which if you check out, you might find your name. :)
