I had to wonder


First of all, let it be known that I found this after doing a google image search for the phrase, "I had to wonder".  I was hoping for a picture of Carrie Bradshaw looking wrought with angst but when my eyes fell on this I knew there could be no other picture for me.  I'm a little unclear about what is going on here.  Is it raining tubes of lipstick and slices of watermelon on them?

Regardless, while that picture is worth enjoying, it is not the point of this post.  The point of this post is about my blog and how I'm fast approaching my 1 year anniversary.  I'm sitting here at starbucks, working on my mac, feeling very cliche, not unlike this:




wondering when I became this person.  This blogging person.  I get it Carrie, it's not just that I'm wondering these things, it's that I have to wonder.

Anyways, as the one year anniversary of my blog comes up I find myself looking at the stats and things about my blog and trying to figure out what direction I should be going in.  I feel like I still don't understand what you people want.

For example, apparently there were two things that people searched for and found my blog as a result of this week.  Two questions actually.  What are those questions you ask?

1)  What does tinkerbell need to stay alive?

  -now this is strange.  I mean, I get it, I did that post about tayisha busay with the reference to peter pan, but I just wonder who was searching for that, and why they ended up coming to my blog.  I don't think they got the answer to their question in my post, unless the answer they were looking for was songs about strange things being in people's mouths.

2)  Where is ms. cleo?

  -I think this is just a testament to there not being enough information available about ms. cleo.  There needs to be some kind of resource people can turn to for their ms. cleo news.  I don't think I'm prepared to be that resource, but it sure seems like people find my blog in their search for ms. cleo a lot.  And I only did like two posts about her.  Well now it's three, sorry to disappoint though, I still don't know the answer to your question.  If somebody finds out where ms. cleo is please email me and I will post it here to put everyone's minds at ease.

As you can see I can make neither heads nor tails of this information.  What's worse, for all my obnoxious advertisements all over my blog I haven't really made any significant money in months.  There was a time when I was averaging like a nickel a day, but at some point it just tapered off.  Now i'm lucky if I see a penny increase.

Which brings me back to my point, I feel like my one year anniversary is a good excuse to shake things up.  I had talked about switching over to my own .com address, I just don't really know how to go about doing it.  I need some kind of internet advisor.

In the meantime, I'll try to keep giving the people what they want.
