Okay guys, time to get you updated on what's going on here.....
First of all, in about 2 weeks, I will pretty much disappear from here for 2-3 months. I work at a children's camp up in Connecticut over the summer and there's very limited internet access. Last year, I kept a blog of sorts (Xanga account) for keeping several people updated, but I haven't decided yet if I'll do that again or not. If I do, I'll link y'all to it, but don't expect much true quirkiness and they'll be no linking to other places like I usually do here. It'll just be stories about the kids, the drunks that I babysit on our nights off, and maybe some pictures here and there.
Second of all, I want to introduce a few new additions for here. On the right hand column, you'll see a couple new widgets. I don't typically like seeing those sorts of things on blogs, but I figure hey, it's better than being cluttered with ads, so why not? Besides, spicy made theirs completely customizable and I was able to make it all blue and look halfway decent. And fuelmyblog recently had a widget competition, and the winner's was pretty cool, so I thought I'd just go ahead and add them both. Soon, FMB's will require you to be a member, but for now, you can click it and 'fuel' me if you'd like....and if you don't, it doesn't hurt my feelings any because I rarely click other people's side bar crap. As for Spicy, I honestly don't know if you have to be a member....I only go there when I get an annoying little email that says some random people have messaged me.
Thirdly, I think it's kinda cool where I rank at a few places now. The entire thing that even sparked this post was that I started getting a strange amount of people showing up here by searching for "Jessi." That may not seem odd considering this place is called The Quirky World of *Jessi* and it's written by Quirky *Jessi* and the url is www.quirky*jessi*.com but a few months after I started this blog, I was on something like page 29 of a google search for "Jessi"....and I'm sorry, but nobody's going to go through 29 pages of search results just to 'stumble' across this place. I'm happy to say that I'm finally on page one, though, so yay! Before that goes to my head, however, I must mention that I'm also second in line for a search on "ramen noodle anorexia," so um, I'm not sure what that means, lol.
Also, before I forget, I reached the top 10 of a fellow blogger's "Top Blog List"....which isn't saying too terribly much considering there are only 27 current members and it only takes me an average of 29ish readers a day to end up there, but for me, that's quite the task considering I haven't been putting out much effort for the last while. I mainly just wanted to give him shout out and a link from here so in case any other bloggers wanted to head over and join, they could.
I think that's it, folks. I don't do this often....I don't 'like' doing this actually, lol....so I wanted to cram in as much as I could here while it was on my mind. That being said, I'm outta here. :D
I'm posting mostly over at Quirky Cookery right now, where I play with my food and teach you to have fun with it, too. Come check me out?
