Green-eyed monster
Well, it truly sucks that I actually have green eyes sometimes ... because when the green-eyed monster bites me, I feel like I AM the green-eyed monster. I'm talking, of course, about jealously.
My left-leaning partner in crime and complete polar political opposite, LabKat, helped me set up my template and get started blogging. She did all the sweating, cursing and organizing of my blog and even drove to MY house to show me how to do it. After profusely thanking her, I encouraged her to blog because she can be hella-funny when she has a mind to. (sorry for the dangling preposition, I'm tired.)
But, tonight, the jealousy bug bit me. In the TTLB ecosystem ranking of blogs, she is 4,331 and I'm 4,327. For whatever reason, I'm jealous. *sigh* I've only been doing this a few more weeks than her, but she has blogs WAY up there on the ecosystem linking to her. *insert deeper sigh here*
Now, LabKat's rise up the ecosystem really isn't the main source of my frustration. I think it is cool that she is out there and getting some readership. It is totally an ego stroke to do that. I guess my thing is that I go to other blogs that get lots of traffic and I think, I'm that good. Or am I? Then, I wonder if I should have some theme here. I wonder if I should tone it down.
Then, I just think I need to go buy some Midol. PMS sucks.

Thanks girly girl. I know it isn't a competition for you and really isn't for me, just shocked me that you jumped up there and are breathing down my neck.
Eww. Don't sneeze on me. And, stop breathing down my neck with all those germs.
Gadfly, where'd you put the Lysol?

Ok, by select people.
And, shhh, don't tell people that.
