Just One Look At You!
06.1.06
Hi, Blog. I'm looking at you a little bit different today. I don't know why. It's like we just made out in an elevator or something, and now we're trying to adjust our clothes really fast before anyone catches on. I can't explain it. Stop winking at me.
Maybe it's because I'm actually allowing people to read you. And link to you. Huh. Imagine that!
I'm also going to allow other people to WRITE on you, blog o' mine. That's correct, you heard it here first: once a month, I will be featuring a guest blogger. I'm so awesome, that I'm already booked until September. If you're interested, please email me, and I will send you a topic and a deadline. Here's the catch: I pick the topic and I'm allowed to have an editor's note. No, I don't trust you. You're right.
If you do not have a blog, you can still be a guest blogger, but you have to include a photo of yourself, so you feel as exposed as the rest of us who splay out our lives on the Internet for the whole world to see.
Here's the summer line-up:
June: Magic Jewball
July: Duchess Jane (The Culotte & N 1st Anniversary Edition)
August: Tomorrow Is Another Day (Although, she doesn't know it yet because I haven't replied to her email. HA! I'm still working on your topic.)
And because I just figured out how to do this– I present to you, a song for the day (I totally ripped off Becca, maybe she won't notice?):
Lovely Day Bill Withers

That’s AWESOME!! I’m like the lucky kid in class that doesn’t have to do her presentation until all the way at the end of the year! And by then there’s no pressure because so many people have gone already it’s all, like, whatever, another presentation, can we just start summer now?

Hey,
Your song link takes me to Napster where it then asks me to sign-in/join. There may be other ways of sharing tunes that don’t involve giving up our emails to spammers. A thought.

It’s all optional, Dave.
If I can plant the Bill Withers earworm in your head without you even hearing it, I’ve done my job. But, if you know of any *free* non-spammy ways, let me know!

I’ve never recived a spam from Napster. They’re like a big company and everything. And if you’re worried about it, you can make up a new addy at yahoo or whatever just for this.
There are no other legal ways to share music in this way. Through Napster, the artists and copyright holders get paid. Trust me, I do this for a living.
Signed,
The person from whom this idea was stolen

Have I told you yet today how awesome it is that you picked a bitter old divorced broad to write the 1st Anniversary guest blog?

I like to live on the edge, Jane!
