Full of Excuses and Link Love
Little No Limit has had a steady fever of 102 since Saturday and it’s been a sad, frustrating feeling, looking into her doped-up eyes (courtesy of OTC drugs and antibiotics) and thinking, huh, it’s a shame they don’t know why you feel this way. I’m so glad I pay through the nose for health insurance.
Besides the business that comes with a sick child, I’ve also been preparing for the Santa Barbara Writer’s Conference, which I’m attending for the first time (yippee!!) although the excitement is somewhat tempered by Little No Limit’s current health scene. Who actually wants to leave town when their baby is sick?
This is all to say, I haven’t been too visible in the blog world. So. Here are thirteen other blogs that may interest you:
1. Frog and Toad Are Still Friends– Touching and funny. Every. Single. Day. I’m so jealous as to how Beck finds the time to do this. And comment as much she does.
2. Three and Holding– Great writer. Great posts. I gave Janet a Perfect Post award many months ago and if I could, I’d give her one every month. For every post. But that hardly seems fair.
3. Toddled Dredge – One of the first blogs I started reading on a regular basis. Veronica is the most intelligent blogger I read. I need a dictionary sometimes. It’s embarrassing.
4. Alpha DogMa – If Alpha DogMa doesn’t make you laugh, then you must not understand humor.
5. Resident Alien – Mary, Mary, Mary. So cool, so worldly. And so quick to help out with the Japanese translating!
6. Weird Girl – What can I say? She’s weird (in a good way, obviously…)
7. Drama Queen – Someday, Angel and I are going to get drunk together. And it’s going to be hilarious.
8. Her Mind Lives in a Quiet Room – I love living vicariously through her. Because my mind lives in Europe.
9. Under Construction – Proud new dad to a pretty little girl! Yeah SRH! Congrats on never sleeping again!
10. Here in Idaho – Kristi should make money for how well she insults celebrities. And Kristi still hasn’t sent me her book (hint, hint).
11. Poppy Fields – Like description number 8, I dream of a life like Poppy Fields. Her scenic pictures make me swoon.
12. Planet Nomad – I never know what to expect from Planet Nomad, but I know it will always be of interest. And often make me laugh. Plus, I’ve always liked the word nomad.
13. Whee! All the Way Home – This woman rules the haiku.
Disappointed your blog isn’t listed? Perhaps next Thursday’s post. Same bat time. Same bat place.

:::searching::: Nope, don’t see mine. Oh well, some other time perhaps.
Loved reading about your Kung Fu Panda in the entry below too. I saw it twice…and loved it.
My 13 is posted, come join me?
Happy Thursday.
I hope your little girl gets better soon! I know how awful that is. Our youngest had mononucleosis when she was two and her temperature used to soar every evening. We couldn’t figure out what it was and it went on for weeks, then months. There is no worse hell than the hell of watching your children suffer. I’ll be thinking good thoughts for your daughter.
Me worldly? Seriously? I am so touched! (And so embarrassed that I’ve managed to give this totally false impression of myself. ..)
My blog is missing from the list, I guess you just forgot.
Hope your little girl feels better soon.
Some new-to-me blogs listed here. Thanks!
I only know one of these. I plunked one and visited but will have to come back to try a few others.
I do a lot of writing by NEVER EVER cleaning my house. Or dressing approrpiately. Voila, writing time!
And thanks so much for the very kind words! I’m going to check out the blogs you’ve listed that I haven’t seen!
You’re very sweet. Thank you.
The writer’s conference sounds awesome! I hope the little one feels better swiftly.
Thanks for the linky-love! And enjoy the Writer’s Conference. I love Santa Barbara. (Do you live near there? We drove through SB, on Hwy 1, a couple of weeks ago) Hope your daughter is better soon, so you can focus on enjoying it.
Thanks for the nod. I’m all blushie! And I’m gonna check out those other Riley-approved blogs.
Tell us about the writers’ conference — I’d love to go to one, but fear I’d be outed as a non-professional, non-talented hack. Just thinking about it makes my stomach ache. Oh wait. That might be the wine and ice cream I just consumed. On top of a moose burger.
Awe, thanks for the link love.
And a big get well soon to Little No Limit!
There is some kinda strange bug going ’round these parts, what with the mysterious high fever. My daughter had it for a day, but she always burns through illnesses quickly– I know lotsa kids who’ve taken 4-5 days to mend. I hope Little No Limit is back to her usual antics soon. Have a great time in SB!
Yay for the writers’ conference. I hope your baby is better by the time you go.
Thanks for the mention and I’ll be waiting for your book
I hope Little No Limit feels better soon. These summer colds suck.
Let us know how the writer’s conference goes! (And thanks for the link!)
Thanks for the linky. Kids and fever go together like peanut butter and chocolate… just not in that good way
