Tricksey Tart
I had a great idea for a blog in the wee waking hours this morning, but you know what? This isn’t it. I’m posting it next week. You see… I’m learning stuff.
Timing
That teleseminar I listened too reminded me that certain days of the week are better and worse for certain kinds of activities… I knew this already; in a former life I worked in advertising. What I didn’t know, but should have guessed if I thought about it, is Saturday is a bad day for anybody to do anything online.
People are outside (unless in is 95 with 95% humidity as it is here), or they are with their families, or wrestling their laundry piles. So for the days blog, I might as well just post pictures of cows, for all the good it would do to be clever.
Coffee with Canines
I also have an interview scheduled (it’s done, but it will be POSTED) next week with my dog at a blog called Coffee with a Canine.

I have high hopes that at hundreds… er… dozens… at least a few… new people will come check me out, and so I have a vested interest in being really clever all week! (aren’t you excited?)
Bonus
But because I love all of you, and don’t want you to feel like you wasted your time reading today, I am going to give you the super secret special bonus content. My coworker, who has a variety of obsessive interests just like yours truly, only different… found a download this week. What it does, is any website you go to, if you hate the pictures, you can use this to turn all the pictures into kittens… (though I can’t quite figure out how to work it… I can be skill deficient)

Aren’t you glad you stopped by?

Mrow? =D
Joris-as my tech guy, when you figure out how this actually works, let me know!
Haha, brilliant! Tami - I got the kitty link to work by right-clicking my mouse on the link, then "Add to favourites", and then I could go to another page (trashy Norwegian online newspaper), access my bookmarks, and tadaa - it kittenified the page! :D Loved it!
And all though I hear you on how a Saturday SHOULD be spent, I feel the need to point out that my Saturday mostly was spent at the archives (sad, I know), where I ran through five boxes, which is a new record for me, and then I celebrated with some serious retail therapy before walking home. Now I need a shower and the frozen pizza I bought... (Luckily the archives aren't open on Sundays)
Okay, though I shouldn't be spamming the comments field of your very serious (ahem...) writer's blog, I just needed to share this... Some of the headlines are VERY disturbing with accompanying kitty pics... Like: "This combination can give painful erection" (I told you it was trashy) and then the picture shows two kittens...
All right....now I'm feeling insecure that I don't have a life because I visit blogs on Saturdays! :)
The kitten thing, though....pure brilliance. There are so MANY web pages that I could beautify that way.

Mystery Writing is Murder
I normally spend more time Saturday online too, so nobody should feel BAD there. I guess it just isn't when people sit at their keyboard with a credit card (and admittedly, at work, it is right behind me, at home, I have to go upstairs--so PAYING for things online, I more often do from work.)
Glad the kittenify is good! There ARE a ton of good uses! The example I found was one about some Playboy bunny and orgasms *yawn*. Definitely improved with kittens.
