My parents never got divorced, but now I know what it feels like

First Queen of Pink disappeared, then Chuck hung em up, and now The Daily Dump has quit. Three of my favorite blogs gone within a week of each other. All three are on the top four link lines and none of them every bought me anything, so you know I just plain liked them. Three of the best, down the drain. I blame no one but myself.

I wonder if there's ever been a study done on the average life cycle of a blog. One year? Two years? You've been around awhile.

I loved Dan. He was a good man, and he sent me an email or two as well, and was really nice. I'll miss him. I'm taking a HUGE shot of Ketel One for Dan right NOW!!

I loved the Belligerent Intellectual, he was/ and probably still is / hilarious. He brought me to you, so i guess it is all on your shoulders to make me laugh now - your tag line always brings a smile.

That means I'm top ten baby!

Unless I quit.

Melissa said...

So I guess now would be a bad time to mention I'm quitting?

Christina said...

A lot of people quit.

I feel like I never will. I have to admit that I say that with more shame than pride. 40 years from now, when no one even looks at the Internet, I'll still be blogging away, the future's version of one of those ham radio guys.

10-4, good buddy.

Awww Tim, how sweet are you? But yeah, it's all your fault. Hopefully years of therapy will help, but if not... well, there's always booze to dull the pain.

I treasured my spot on the fucking socks rocked off list... truly.

Tim said...

conti - yeah, you'd be up at the top if I weren't so lazy that I don't feel like redoing it all.

ogo - it went well. A lot smoother than I thought it would. Thanks!

pix - all three of them are pricks, huh?

fm - you dropped down so far because you weren't blogging much at the time. If I redo them you'll be closer to the top.

vof - I'm coming up on two years. No plans to retire.

aimless - I couldn't hold a candle to dd

paul - I'd like you more if you quit.

mel - yes it would.

tpp - I'm the same way. I might go through periods where I don't blog a lot, and I might go through periods where I only write shitty posts (like the 23 month period I'm in now), but I don't see myself killing it all.

qop - you know whoever takes your spot on the list isn't going to work out. I'll end up making them quit too.

Tim I love you like a brother from another Mother...I'd love to be around all the time but life sometimes sucks and it just doesn't work out that way. Just know I'll be reading your blog. You're the ultimate new Daddy...we must keep in touch.

Thanks for the mention here.

Chick said...

I hate when they just leave...Pink...where'd you go?

Mad Ethel said...

Conti - me too! This is the biggest promotion of my life. BTW, how did yours go, Tim?

Mad Ethel said...

Nevermind. I just scrolled down.

Yay, I've been moved! I'm probably going to just chain myself to the computer now.

Just said...

I blame you too.

I 110% agree! I keep checking his site each day just in case he decided to change his mind. That really sucks, but please don't you go quitting on me now too because I just found YOU through him and I don't want to lose you too! :( Keep on doin' what you're doing - I love the blog and your daughter is sooooo cute! ByeBye
