Like I needed another time-waster.

Continuing my sad attempt at getting more traffic, I signed up for BlogClicker in addition to my BE addiction. It's nice to see some different blogs, as opposed to the ones that I've seen forty-seven quadrillion times on BE. (Vandamonium, I'm looking at you! Oh, the horror of that flashy, blinky, cluttered and content-less thing. I know I don't have the best blog on the face of the earth, but at least I don't give BE surfers seizures. Sheesh.)

Anyway, I wish BlogClicker had a "blogmark" option and a do-not view list (bleeding-heart conspiracy theorists, I'm looking at you! I really just don't care, and you're not going to convince me to care in 30 seconds. Oh, and I'm not looking at Vandamonium anymore. Just to clear that up, lest you think I'm weirdly looking in two directions at once, all crazy-eyed.) They have clicking contests (which are exciting except for the fact that I'll never never ever beat UptownGirl and her 10000000 clicks per week. Grrrr.) You can get cash from referrals, and their advance-click is a picture instead of a number, which I like. BE's numbers make me nervous, because I'm always afraid I'll accidentally click "599" instead of "569" or whatever. They remind me of those blurry non-words that you have to type into Ticketmaster, like "twingle" or "skoof". Those things make me almost as nervous as public speaking, because one wrong keystroke, and alas! All is lost.

BlogCrowd is another new BE clone, and I'm not wild about it yet (sometimes the countdown doesn't work if it's not the top window, but it is 20 seconds instead of 30.) And they do give you 250 credits when you sign up, so I think it's worth signing up for 250 visits, even if you never use it again. I think my problem with BlogCrowd is the typos I ran across on their site. For example, their registration form asked for my "fist name". Well, if it's not Kim and it's not Fist, then I don't know ... maybe Phlangelina?

In other news, there are two deer mowing the hill behind my neighbor's house. It's rather serene-looking. I hope they stay out of the road so I don't slam into them with my car.

And finally, my cat is absolutely thrilled that I'm awake. That is all.
