Yep

I'm not sure your blog may be boring but your monthly people visitor thingy says 190, mine is down to 49. Mine is boring and rarely visited. I guess it is kind of like my runs boring and rarely done.

You're down to 48 now, Dustin. Maybe you need to start doing 90 mile weeks to attract attention, if it means that much to you :)

Jon, I second Dustin's comment. I wish I was a boring 190...

It's all because of the miles right now, not due to any witty insights from me (since there aren't any). And it's not due to me commenting on lots of other blogs- I have not had much time for that recently.

From Bonnie on Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 19:59:25 from 128.196.228.134

ha ha ha ... it is interesting to compare your "boring" blogs and your witty reparte with the more interesting (e.g., girly) blogs. But you are right Jon, being tops on the mileage board automatically makes you more "interesting" ;-).

From Jon on Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 20:05:30 from 75.169.158.13

Wait, Bonnie, are you saying only Girly blogs are interesting? Is Walter's interesting?

From JD on Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 20:11:23 from 32.176.249.125

Aahahaha!

From Bonnie on Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 20:11:55 from 128.196.228.134

Yes, Walter's blog is interesting ... but because he includes "girly" things -- like getting his hair-cut and pictures and stuff ;-) (please don't tell Walter, but heck he even discusses "girlish figure" right in his profile).
