Did you forget about me, Ms. Reci-procity?
If you've been reading this blog from its inception (last February), you know that it was conceived as a distraction to one of the more soul-sucking periods of Girl-E's professional life, exaggerated by the manic depressive nature of living in a foreign country. When she returned to the States, she had a nice built-in two-month vacation that allowed her to do things like go to the gym at off-peak hours and sleep off Tuesday night karaoke, and which allowed us plenty of time to blog and read other blogs.
One of the best parts about starting a blog, in fact, is the discovery of other on-line writers who entertain and inspire, and the welcome of a community based on links among each other's sites. The problem is, now that Girl-E has started living like a real person again, with a job and regular activities and whatnot, it has become disturbingly difficult to find the uninterrupted hours-on-end with which to catch up on our favorite journals.
So, we have been using an incredibly lazy strategy lately, and we feel it is your right as our online buddies to know about it. Each time we check our stats on Site Meter, we visit whatever blogs have been referral pages in the past 24 hours. This reflects no commanding tit-for-tat philosophy, only a lazy shortcut. Links in the comments box will also catch our undivided attention.
Anyway, what we're saying here is that we want to visit everyone, but are being lazy bastards and need your help. So, if you link to us and read regularly, rock on. If you have a blog but usually come to us via someone else, leave a comment every once in a while (we have no intention of grovelling to be added to your Blogroll, that is your choice alone).
We intend that once things get settled we will again take to open cyberspace, but at the moment we're behaving narrowly and need other people to dangle bright shiny objects in our face and broaden our vision.
Thanks again, and happy Sunday.
