Finally Someone GaGa-Gets me....

OK, as if I didnt adore her enough already Lady GaGa says something in the latest (last) issue of Blender magazine that gave me hope that not all the world's fashion sense was lost...

"Today I got my nails done and the paparazzi came into the mall and stood outside the salon. I wanted to get my toes painted as well, but I couldn't. I would have had to put flip-flops on, and I'm really serious about never wearing flip-flops in public."
(i love an excuse to make a bad photo collage!)

For a while there I thought I was the only one who was seriously anti- "thong" sandals. In fact, I dont put anything on my body called a "thong" or a "flip-flop".

photo sites?

why am I such a picky person when it comes to photo hosting?
I mean I know flickr has the whole community vibe going for it, but of all the photo hosting sites it really does offer the least amount of free features.
and if you cant tell by my name I am all about bargains and thriftiness, I joined flickr, and I've been on photobucket for years without hitting max. Now, with blogger I have the Picasa default page as well...so, to my favorite bloggers I ask, which photo site is best?

or

do you just use multiple hosts for your blog post pics?

I am anxious to share my pics but I'm also quite fearful of the dreaded bandwith exceeding red X's, and frogs and such...help!!!

Been busy Blogging???

Well, I actually have just not on the computer. I have been journaling IRL since I could write. Remember those little diaries with locks on them? I have gone through and noticed that I have over 20 different journals from over the years! Some filled, some partially, and some are brand new because I used to work at a bookstore and couldnt resist a new, fresh, blank book.

It takes some getting used to for me to get over here and blog but I have been preparing posts and content all the while, Im in the process of sifting through my thousands of photos and resizing them for the page, it seems blogging may not be as simple as a pen to the page but I am working on it!

I also get lost reading blogs, so it takes away from my own blogging time, either way I love checking out new blogs and I ask that you leave me a comment here with your blog link so I can add yours too.

You might notice all the tags on this post-just a few of my interests I wanted to post and share with you...there will always be more to come!

Thanks for visiting!
