99…and That’s a Magic Number

By Christine | May 15, 2008

My Google Reader scares me. The number of unread posts mocks me. As much as I try to keep it under 100 (because 99 is so much less intimidating?) I find that I’m failing miserably.

Note to self: Enough already with the arbitrary rules, K?

I seriously do enjoy reading blogs, and if there’s a problem it’s that there are just so many good ones. It’s a nice problem to have as far as problems go.

But still the number grows…

One of my all time favorites is written by a stay home dad who goes by the name Joeprah. With three cute little girls and a gorgeous wife, he’s the only guy in the house - and a funny one at that. It’s great to get a male perspective on raising kids.

As I’m typing this, he’s looking into the reasons why we moms tend to read blogs by other moms more than anything else. Any thoughts? Feel free to comment here or join the conversation on twitter.

While you’re at it, check out those buttons over in my left sidebar. Pretty cute, huh? Click on over and read Joe’s blog. You’ll thank me later.

Ooh! I just got that number down to 88 while I was writing this. I’m all about the short attention span multitasking.

    I’m clicking over the Joe’s blog from your buttons, but don’t tell Huckdoll! I assume you’re in the contest with them all. Huck is a ninja though, so she’ll probably find out. BTW, I like your blog (I’m whispering). Good luck with the reader!

    Hi Christine, I find it hard to use Google Reader. It looks cluttered to me. I must be doing something wrong. Maybe I’ll try it again.

    I too am going to check out Joe’s blog. I rarely hear of a stay @ home dad, so when I do..I like to check it out.
