bloggers...

A lot of the blogs I read are written by people who write every day. They blog for a living and usually post every day. I don't have time to post every day so when I do have time my blogs usually become a hodge podge of what I could have made into a week's worth of ramblings. So here goes...

1. Yahoo posted a story this week... 10 quirky facts about kissing. Not exactly the kind of reading that usually makes you think, but I saw a guy mention one of the facts on facebook that he was upset about... "The average woman kisses 29 men before she gets married." The facebook poster said it made him sad to think about and another one of his friends agreed he didn't want his wife kissing 29 men before him. My first question was, "What's the average for a man before he gets married?" I tried googling it, but instead of finding an answer I found contradicting research debating whether the average for a female was 29 or 79... Maybe it's nearly tripling based on the fact women are getting married later. Once upon a time I made a list of the guys I've kissed... Rest assured I'm not close to 29. Although I've debated if I need to start kissing more to increase my chances of finding my husband! just kidding!!

I am always a little apprehensive about the double standard. I hope if you're worried about how many guys I'm kissing, you're thinking about who you're kissing.

2. CMA Awards... I watched a little bit of the CMA's on Wednesday and thanks to the DVR can catch the whole show on a lazy Saturday. I have yet to watch the whole thing, but I promise my favorite part will be the Kelly Clarkson and Jason Aldean performance. I know I'm biased, but just saying...

My other favorite part was Brad Paisley's thanks to the fans... "I'm like a turtle on a fence post. You know he didn't get there by himself." There was some stuff circulating on the internet awhile ago making fun of Obama being a turtle on a fence post and took the analogy further... but I love Brad's tribute. We're all where we are because of someone else. I know for sure I would not be here today if it weren't for a host of people in my life. I can't say thank you enough...

3. Speaking of Kelly Clarkson... her backup singers... and two of my favorite singers... JillandKate recorded a cd with their Songs on the 17th... well documented through my blog they post a song on youtube on the 17th of every month and I definitely preordered the cd. So as a plug for JillandKate... check out their site, their blog, their videos, their cd... do it.

4. One of my favorite bloggers Bianca Juarez posted a vlog about depression on Friday... I'm sitting on it a bit, letting it stew... expansion to come...
