Happy Valentine's Day
Another edition of the weekly Thursday Thirteen.
Happy Valentine's Day all you guys and gals. Today is the day of LOVE! Yes! I have a darling husband that I love dearly and I could certainly start a list here telling you all the reasons why I love him... but, I'm thinking you probably won't find those reasons nearly as important as I do... so how about a love list that we can share?
I love blogging and let me count the ways...
13. My husband says that I'm a happier person when I'm blogging. See... it is good for you. It's good for your soul!
12. You get to find someone who shares similar interests, a sense of humor, and strike up a friendship... much like my blogging buddy - Susan at West of Mars.
11. You get to step on top of whatever soapbox you want and rant or rave or vent... and develop a fan base while doing it.
10. Nothing makes surfing the internet more enjoyable that popping on to someone's blog and seeing what they think on a topic.
9. Learn something new. Learn something new. Learn something new.
8. Get to know your multiple personalities and give them voice!
7. You get to be one with the force! Also known as the internet....
6. You know you love something when you can spend endless hours just admiring it... much like the blogosphere.
5. The Meme... You know it. You love it. You anxiously await it's weekly arrival!
4. I love site traffic. Yes. I like all those little clicks and I lovingly check my traffic meters at least two or three times a day.
3. I've gone to bed at night and as I've drifted off to sleep.. I've thought about the blog post I'd like to research and write... and post...
2. I've clicked on someone's blog and... *gasp* experienced blog envy!
1. Mostly, I love the feeling of community and the group of bloggers I've connected with.... Thank you for feeding my obsession. :) Have a lovely Valentine's!

I love your list, and totally agree.
I just can't believe how long it took me to start!
I agree with your list; this is my second week on TT and I'm totally addicted. It's an undiscovered country out there in the blogosphere.
I agree with you 100%.
My T13 is up too.
Great list!
I love all those things.
Happy TT!
I am such a late starter, guess I need to live forever to make up for lost time. . . blogging rocks!
Blogging is so much fun isn't it?
Nice to meet you.

Great list and I agree with being happier when blogging. It's been so long since I did anything just for me and blogging is it. Love it and love all the great people I'm meeting.
Yup, I agree with all those things, too! Blogging is a blast. Hee, don't we feel the love! :)
Thanks for visiting my blog, and Happy TT!
I never thought I would be a "blogger" but since my daughter got me started, it has been wonderful getting to meet new people. I actually spend way tooooooo much time doing this now, but hey, its fun!
Great TT
What?? I went to bed last night after the Pens game without seeing a lovely link love AND myself well described in #8 (multiple personalities have their voices)?? *grin*
You are a darling and you deserve all the traffic you're generating. I'm glad we've become blog buds and hope it'll develop into a long-lasting friendship.
Happy TT!!!!
Great list, you summed it all up beautifully.
My TT is up too.
I've experienced blog envy too. :) Great list and I love your pic of Spongebob!!
Happy TT!!
Great list--it gives me the chance to meet people like you! Happy TT!
Oooh...blog envy. Been there, had that. Which is why I had mine redesigned at the beginning of the year, and I like it much better now.
It used to be a lot harder to think of things to blog about; but now I find it a lot easier. Hope the content is still interesting! ;-)
Thanks for coming by my blog! You're entered to win the contest for an advance copy of my book! (Or the current one, if you prefer. *wink*)
Great reasons.
What a GREAT list!!!!!
Thanks for dropping by.
definitely a good thing, the blogging. happy TT, mine's up!
Yeah... initially I thought everyone was nuts... heck, my husband still thinks I'm nuts! But it's a lot of fun, you meet great people, and it opens up your mind. ;)
Happy Blogging!
You sure hit the nail on the head with this list!!!
*LOL* Blog envy...we all get it.
Great list. Thanks for stopping by my little piece of the bloggosphere. :)
Please come back.
Perfect summary of why I love blogging too. It's great to meet people you otherwise wouldn't. I hope you have a great day. :)
Blogging is great. I love the blogging community. I haven't come across anything negative yet. I like your list and agree. and I so do number four too. bad obsession isn't it.
I love your list too ! :-)
Blogging is a good way to socialize without having to clean up the house, make noshies, or even make sure everyone's available at the same time.
That last is a blessing for everyone who's ever thought of a devastating comeback or witty observation...about fifteen minutes after the conversation has meandered to a new topic.
I loved the comments your readers left almost as much as your list! GREAT idea!
Your list is so true. As I was reading, I was trying to pick out the ones that I really related to...and I had to choose them all! I'm a site traffic junkie too...Btw, saw that you were one of the top commenters at the TT hub! Woohoo!!
I love blogging too! Thanks for visiting my TT this week.
I love you list this week.
And yes, I know I still owe you a book review. I promise to get it posted and up before I get on a plane to Manila this weekend.
See, I knew it was a good idea to read the book early - getting time to write the review was the hard part!
Great TT! Blogging is the best, isn't it. As a stay-at-home-mom and writer, it's opened up so many doors for me. And, it's really changed my life. :)
Great TT. I love blogging too. It is fn to think of what to blog next. Thanks for stopping by my TT
Ahhh, I'm quickly becoming addicting to this whole blogging thing too. Great list. :)
Happy (very belated) TT!
