The Next Best Thing Since The Padded Bra

Well, maybe it's not the next best thing... but it's close.


This post is for those of you who have a moderate to severe addiction to blogging. The ones who are saying, "Ha, me addicted... to blogging?! Pffft, right.!" are the ones who have the problem. It's OK, denial is the first stage in admitting you have a blog addiction (BA). Denial is usually followed by anger, bargaining, depression, & acceptance. As you have probably noticed, the stages of BA are pretty much the same as the stages of grief... except I have taken the liberty to add one last stage to BA. After you have reached the sad realization that you are in fact a victim of BA the next very important step would be Google Reader. I share this with you only as a friend and fellow blogger. Your time management is very important to me. I only use Google Reader out of convenience, not because I have an addiction to blogging. Me, addicted... to blogging?! Pffft, right! Clearly I'm not addicted to blogging. I could totally live without it. As you can tell, I myself am in the early stages of dealing with BA.

So how can Google Reader be the next best thing since the padded bra? Well, I'm not quite sure. I guess it offers support and it holds your "friends" all in one place. And it keeps you "up" to date on all the blogs you follow.

OK, so that was kind of a long shot. And OK, my husband is going to have another reason to be embarrassed by me when he reads this. But seriously, if you want to save on some time instead of clicking from blog to blog only to find that people haven't updated, then you should really consider buying a new bra or signing up for Google Reader. (In this case Google Reader would probably be the more effective choice.)

Definately better than a padded bra! Wish it worked for private blogs too, it would save me a couple minutes a day!!

I know, I wish it worked on private blogs too. Sometimes my friends with private blogs get a little neglected. It doesn't mean I love them any less, it just means I'm to lazy to click on each one... it's a lot of work for one little finger to do.

Hey I woudl rather admit I have BA then BO and I hear you on the private blog thing. They really need to figure out how to make that work for those too.

When I saw the pic I thought you found the perfect bra...

Ginnie said...

Nope, the perfect bra has yet to be found... well, at least for me. If it doesn't magically inhance and slim at the same time then it's not for me.
