Visitor cities, a cartoon & an offer for you

      Houston, Texas; Los Angeles, California; San Diego, California; Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain; Kirkland Lake, Ontario, Canada; Northbrook, Illinois; Indian Hills, Colorado; Newton Upper Falls, Massachusetts; Silver Spring, Maryland; Portland, Oregon; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Hong Kong Central District; Seal Beach, California; Durham, North Carolina; Duluth, Georgia; Seattle, Washington; Edmond, Oklahoma; Lizella, Georgia; Joplin, Missouri; Huntington Beach, California; McLean, Virginia; ...
      Those are some of the cities logged on my site meter over the past two days. Several of these visit my blog often -- Hi everyone -- but most never leave a comment. Someone in Hong Kong visits me at least twice a day. Which is cool if a little baffling since I can't figure out what about my blog would interest someone living in that exciting city. Maybe for the relaxation.
      I get a lot of hits from Georgia. And California. I know who at least one of those California folks are, but the rest and those from Georgia are unknown. Kinda mysterious, don't you think?
      Y'all just keep coming by. I'm glad to see you even if you don't comment. But do comment sometime. I'd like to hear from you. I bet you have something interesting to say.
      I love the following comic. Opus rules!



      Opus, my man ... uh, penguin, I'm right there with you.
      Hey, before I forget, I'd like to ask a favor of my readers. If you have an account with Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble, and you've read my book -- and liked it! -- would you mind posting a review? If you do -- and if you want it and will supply your snail mail address -- I'll send you the first chapter of Murder by the Acre. This offer is only good through the end of November.
      In site news, I updated the Favorite Quote and the scrollies, added the links to order Murder by Dewey Decimal on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Lulu, and posted the numbers on Murder by the Acre.
      Have a great day tomorrow! And I'll be posting another excerpt from Grave Tidings then. Night!

Humph! I'm not going to post the excerpt until someone -- besides me -- posts a comment. ...grumblegrumblegrumble...

SBB said...

In fact, I want five comments! ...muttermuttermutter...

SBB said...

We should!

SBB said...

Roen, have I mentioned that I worship you? I worship you. All the others will be swept away when the robot money army rises!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!

SBB said...

Sigh. Nobody loves me but Roen. Sigh. Which is wonderful that she does because she is cool, but I needs lots of lovin'. Sigh.

You are needy! But that's okay. We'll put up with it 'cause we like you! :)

SBB said...

Gloria, it's like you think being needy is a bad thing. What's up with that?

Trixie said...

I was just hanging out with Opus for a while. Crunching leaves in my toes and all that. Glorious day for toe-leaf crunch exercises. Certainly more pleasant than sit-ups.

What, did you say something?

SBB said...

Nope, Trixie. I didn't. Enjoy the leaf-crunching.

...muttermuttermutter...only three...muttermuttermutter...

Humph, yourself! Did you know it's been TEN DAYS since you commented at my place??? So no more feeling sorry for yourself! Ya' know, for being the beggar for reviews you've been lately, you sure can be choosy. Gee whiz, talk about high maintenance!

;)

(I'll get to my review in awhile.)

Make that "while" as soon as I get the bookplates I need so I can wrap Christmas presents. :)

SBB said...

Not true, FF. I was Nexus! :)

Ouch. The bookplates ... sigh ... I guess my post today will be the whole sad bookplate story. Why does every learning experience have to be painful?

SBB said...

And we're still at just 4 comments! Sigh. Where are the adoring hordes? Where? Come back, adoring hordes, come back! I still love you! I'm sorry the robot monkeys scared you. I'll tell them to play nice.

Uh, Tech, I'd watch my step today if I were you. Taking credit for Nexus is not healthy for you. He can get pretty angry, ya' know. A little lightning here, and little rash there, and you're doomed!

You better apologize to him--and fast! :)

Five.

Sending you some love from San Diego!

I cut that Opus Cartoon out of the paper and now it is displayed on my refrigerator door :)

Just to let you know, you have a big fan base from my home computer. Rainman, Joe, my dad and Candy all visit your site on a daily basis.

Trixie said...

Hey wait a minute. Just a doggone minute. How long since you posted at MY place???

*sulkpoutwhinecry*

SBB said...

FF, I think I'll take my chances with Nexus. He's an old drinking buddy. We get along well.

Crystal, is that really a comment you could be proud of?

Rain! Always good to hear from you, and it's so cool that I got regular visitors from your house. Awesome!

Today, Trixie. I posted a comment today. :)

Anonymous said...

Yes, Crystal can be proud of that comment. It's not unlike one over at my place. Let's see...who was that who posted that?

Oh yeah! YOU! ;)

SBB said...

Yes, FF, but I followed it with several more comments, didn't I?

Anonymous said...

Yes, but you haven't said a word over there since!

SBB said...

Have to!
