Tag, you're it!

I've been putting off getting a new tagboard for a few weeks now. No, actually its been months since that darned thing conked out on me. Blame it on wishful thinking. I was wishing the darned thing would fix itself. It was like wishing the 50-peso hula from Madam Juli of Quiapo would come true. All wishes, nothign more. I finaly decided to Google (as always) for a new shoutbox and finally test-drive one.

Being both code-incompetent and lazy, I chose a hosted shoutbox. HTML, Java, PERL -- you name it, I can't understand it. But I do know copying and pasting, owing from years of using a word processor. I added the supplied code to my Blogger template a couple of days ago. I've already received a couple of tags from people using the same shoutbox. As always, I leave a complimentary tag on the blogger who tagged me. A lot of good people out there, I tell 'ya. Makes me feel I do some good writing entries. At least you read it :-))

If you want to meet a couple, check out Jey's and Willa's blogs . Both are pink, surprisingly. Jey's blog is much like mine -- a mixture of real-life events and food. She's new to Blogger, I can tell. Her archives are grouped by weeks. Ah, I remember fondly those times when I too had my archives grouped by weeks. At first I blogged once a week, then every couple of days. Then it became daily, then four times a day. After that, my desire to blog has waned and ebbed like the rising and the falling of the tides. On days, I would write several entries. At times, I wouldn't be in a writing mood and leave my blog "entry-less" for a few days or even weeks.

Reminds me! In two months, I'll be celebrating this blog's 2nd anniversary! Whoooo-hoooo! Going back to Jey, I really like her blog. While typing this entry, I was suddenly overcome with a sense of dejavu while typing her name. Weird, huh? At least, she was good enough to link to me. Thanks Jey!

If you decide to visit Willa's blog , watch out for the letters and numbers that constantly follow your mouse pointer - LOL. Anyway, she's a bloggin' mommy from Miami as far as I can tell. I hope she likes my entries. I'm wary of mommies simply because some of my entries are not kind at all. I'm mean, I know. You regular readers would know that by now. Hmmmm....This introspection has got me going "ohm". I must tell myself, "strive to be a less grumpier daysleeper."

In the end, I'm glad to finally have a tagboard working again. I get the chance to meet the people who read my blog, even if randomly so. What good is blogging if you don't get in touch with people, eh?
