Attention: Serious-Face Post
One of the most pretentious things I see is when people put up “If you like this blog, then you can thank me by sending me $$$ or buying me stuff!” *Mmmmmmpulch*. Thank you??!? Blogging is a desperate cry for attention, not some favor we’re doing. As soon as I see some hack no-talent writer pop that up on their blog I start hoping their keyboard gives them leprosy. If anything, you do ME a favor by stopping by every once in a while and feeding this pathetic addiction. I should be buying YOU stuff. Of course I should do a lot of things.
BUT, there are times when people are in need- and that is a different story. When a friend is in need, it’s important that they voice it. Zeroboss is asking for donations for a legal fund for some sort of crisis his family is going through right now. It’s not a prank or an experiment, it’s a plea. If you know him or read his blog then you may want to head over and donate.
Here’s the link: Zeroboss.

I’ve always wondered what was the deal with the ‘donate’ buttons. I don’t take up collections while chatting at the bar, or ask for spare change when shopping, so why would I ask for money on my blog? I do ask for comments, and a link if people like what they read, but I am a link whore.
You and I have some of the same links, and Brandon at One child left behind recommended you. He was correct, as usual. Come see me sometime – yes, partly mommy blog, partly writer blog, partly smartass blog.
