13 Thursday # 2

Thirteen googles leading to my blog:

You know you’ve looked. You got to your Sitemeter, or whatever counter program you use for your blog, and you see who has stopped by. Oh, there’s Massachusetts, Gayprof’s been here; here’s Colorado, so my friend James must have come by (and yet again NOT left a comment).

And then there are the google searches. The unknown people who have typed in a word or phrase, and your blog came up as one of the hits. Sometimes, it’s obvious why and sometimes, not so much.

1.embarrassing stories about bloody period panties and tampons
God, I don’t want to know. Why, oh why would someone want to look for these? Will it be repeated somewhere? Is it some perve? What?

2. zicam chews
Okay, someone wants to know about these. They are horrible tasting. If I’ve saved one person from using them, my blog has served a higher purpose.

3. firetini
I don’t know if these are served anywhere other than Elements restaurant in Santa Barbara. They are yummy, but dangerous.

4. Maureen "little crush" Eve
Huh?

5. drunken babble
This makes sense

6. pairing hard apple cider with buffalo wings
It’s just so specific. Like a question. Here’s the thing; Buffalo wings, while tasty, aren’t really known for their gourmet cache. I don’t think anyone who eats them will be too particular about what they drink alongside them.

7. "just babble" blog
This person knew the name of my blog, but didn’t have the web address. I’m so curious. Who was it?

8. three cheese ravioli queer eye for the straight guy
Yes, this was a search. Is it some kind of code I don’t know? And although I have referenced the television show, I don’t think I’ve ever talked about ravioli.

9. "very short toes"
Every time I see a body part search, I automatically think a person has a fetish. What’s wrong with me?

10. "Sofia Rose" AND boobs
I knew when I posted last June about my sister taking the cleavage picture that I would get hits about it. Who’s Sofia Rose?

11. dress sneeze button boobs
Again, so specific. Hmmm…

12. fulbright application
Maybe someone else applied? Is thinking of applying? There is a lack of good, first hand information about the whole process of it… maybe I should write something?

13. pierogies cause heartburn
I beg to differ. They are however, probably one of my top five favorite foods. Had some last night actually.

I'll bet you have used the name Sofia Rose somewhere because when I look at my own google results and I'm certain that I have never uttered whatever word or phrase, I discover that indeed I have.

And yeah, I hate those icky ones.

PS. I go beyond despising Blogger comment code, I rage at it's perfidy. Those bastards have some serious glitches. Have you ever had that thing where the word verification just disappears and you have no hope of getting the stinking comment to post? Steam is coming out of my ears.

Hey -- Add another Massachusetts notch on your counter for today.

It's funny, I thought about doing this same entry (and probably will at some point). My two top searches are "straight guys tricked into gay porn" and "which is better? A cut or uncut penis?" Ironically, both cases lead them to posts that chastise the very question that they pose.

Three cheese ravioli is a code word for a menage a trois with people of three different races and/or sexual identities.

Actually, I just made that up, but it makes sense to me. ;)

And I'm sorry, but I laughed out loud at your quick acceptance of the "drunken babble" search.

I love the Google searches to my blog and loathe them at the same time. There are so many people searching for such weird stuff and it always stuns me that they get to my blog that way. I mean, I never blog about anything weird!

Oh my word verification didn't show up, this ought to be fun to try to post.

So many weirdos! Yay! This is fun, I wanna play.I am the number one result for the search "sheep cow pig love family". lol. But now, maybe you will be since I've quoted it in your comments.

Ok, Ok. You found me out! I admit it, I do not always leave comments. I have left them sometimes, but have yet to receive a return e-mail? Then there is the problem with leaving a comment using the "word verification" box! This thing does not always seem to cooperate with me. I know, I know, USER ERROR, but regardless...it can be frustrating.

Hope your well, I do check in on you periodically (your blog that is)

The words don't always have to be in the same post. It's freaky what brings people to a blog.

A few months ago, you wrote: I’d much rather have cheese ravioli than a wizened up piece of chicken....

Just helping out. :-)

Oops, sorry! I meant to point to your Sofia Rose reference, too.
