Question for fellow bloggers.

Do you ever just go up there and click that "next blog" button? You know, on a really slow news day, when you have time to kill. Just start clicking and reading. It's kind of like a crap shoot as to what kind of blogs you'll run across. Some days you can't read any of them because they are all a foreign language. Some days you are able to practice your Spanish, that's always good. Some days are like today, weird.

Most of the blogs today were medical related. What's up with that? They covered everything from Rosacea, to Diabetes, to legs in casts, dental from pediatric to adult orthodontics. PCL surgery and how painful it is, what is that? Maybe I don't want to know. Headaches, lots of headaches out there and migraines of course. Acne and Blackhead removal.... yeah, I am trying to drink coffee here! I said weird didn't I? Now we're into gross.

Then you get some seizures, cancers, Liver transplants with the Doctor's picture off to the side, and I swear to you it's one of those picture booth shots from the mall. Doctor, Doctor... what are you spending your money on? Don't tell me student loans, you just did a transplant. Kids with cancer.... too sad (poor baby) can't read that. And one with a picture of a kid with a huge knot on his head and some of that blue stretchy/sticky bandage wrapped tightly around his noggin. He'll forget all about that blow to the head (wonder if a mule kicked him?) when Mom starts ripping that stuff off later.

The only non depressing or scary blogs out there this morning were one with a baby in an orange diaper and Hotel Moscow... nice photos. Hey Blogger! Can we get a run on the weather blogs or something light?

But... this all made me really thankful for our health.

Yeah, I used to do that too. Too many foreign way weird what the hell is that language ones, then the porn ones. Uh no thanks. Then I got addicted to the whole spacebook thing, so now no time. Heck, I am weeks behind on my own blog! Maybe today I will get caught up. If it would only warm up enough so I am not freezing and I can type...

I've clicked a total of 4.5 times in my life. On the whole, what I saw or tried to read was too depressing. People have forgotten how to write properly. Not that I'm parfait, but at least I try.

I used to click it when I first started blogging but it can get depressing and I've got enough of that on my own.

I am a clicker - like you - when little else is happening, after about 3 clicks the next blog click button has disppeared and I remember peopleofwalmart.com... which always brings a smile to my face...
