Whoo hoo!

January 30, 2006 8:23 PM

Love hanging out with you and SSB. Through your blogs, that is.

Cheers!

January 30, 2006 8:41 PM

Indiaiynke, thanks. I'm pretty excited myself.

Shamus, awe!! That is so sweet. That's kind of what I like to think of my blog as - my home where people come to hang out and visit with me.

10,000! you're DEFINATELY in the big leagues now!

just make sure you post pics of your new do ;)

January 30, 2006 9:14 PM

ESC, I was planning on posting the pics. Who doesn't love a good before and after?

January 30, 2006 9:39 PM

Hoorah for Syllogism!

January 30, 2006 10:01 PM

Shannon, :D
I can't wait for this weekend! How weird will that be?

January 30, 2006 11:47 PM

Wow! Can you sell your blog for big bucks now that you reached the big 10K. Well done! How long have you been blogging to reach such a big number? I'd go get a cut and add on a pedicure, facial, or manicure. Treat yourself,

January 31, 2006 4:06 AM

What will I do ?

What will I do with a single blog start?
Create a few more from my gardener’s heart
What will I do just give out advice
Maybe it’s going to add spice to my life

What will I do when I’m not feeling well?
Post pretty pictures and moan like the hell
What will I do with my son’s new school?
Post a new post and try and stay cool

What will I do if I haven’t a job?
Call on the force to be my new voice
What will I do if I’m sick when I start?
Call 10,000 bloggers to rev up my heart

January 31, 2006 4:13 AM

Wendy A, I've never gotten a pedicure, manicure, or facial before.

Once, I called to find out the hours of a manicure place because I was thinking about getting one either that day or the next. They called me back about an hour later asking me where I was. I NEVER GAVE THEM MY PHONE NUMBER OR SET UP AN APPOINTMENT! Weirdo manicurist stalker!

So if I can find a place that isn't so creepy, I think I might just do that.

Lindsay, you are so talented with your poetry. And of course it is always nice to here such beautiful things about myself!

January 31, 2006 8:54 AM

I think you oughta get all liquored up and run naked through the snow. That's certainly how I'd celebrate if I were up north.

January 31, 2006 3:20 PM

I raise a bottle of cold Leinies to you Syl, 10,000 well deserved hits! Happy my blog played a small roll in the big event.

That Lindsay is really showing us up...seems to actually putting time into his replies....hmmm.....

There once was a blogger named Sylvana,
Who's blog 10,000 folks thought was Nirvana,
They keep dropping by
To leave their replies
Crap, all I got for a the last rhyme is banana.

January 31, 2006 3:27 PM

Congrats! That's awesome.

January 31, 2006 5:13 PM

Cookie Christine, I would be contemplating that if we actually had snow.

DrMax, mmmm... Leinie's! I might actually do that tonight. I need a good drink after talking to that ditz at the salon!

Tayster, thanks! I never thought that this would happen in less than a year!

January 31, 2006 6:03 PM

Does he win a prize? Congrats to you! Pedicure time, for sure.

January 31, 2006 8:36 PM

Tag, you're it!

January 31, 2006 9:42 PM

Congratulations Sylvana, and in no time at all you will reach the 20,000 mark. It is not surprising since you have a wonderful blog.

If you want to celebrate, get drunk. That way you can party and drown out the dimwit when he gives his BS SOTU address.

January 31, 2006 9:43 PM

Maria, hey! You are back! I'm saving the pedicure for summer.

SSB, go here to read my post on this meme. It was pretty good.

Canuk, awe, thanks. We watched "Crash" the movie instead of "Chimpy" (thanks for that, Cookie Christine) the idiot.

January 31, 2006 10:03 PM

Hi Sylvana & Dr Max

Dr max -Keep going I sense a late flowering talent emerging from bloggers on Syllogism !! inspired by a force.


Best wishes

February 01, 2006 6:09 AM

Thats great so many hits

February 01, 2006 9:21 AM

Lindsay, I believe you have inspired people.

Pink Lady, and the hits keep coming!

February 01, 2006 9:29 AM

look at you go.

February 01, 2006 12:46 PM

Your hair rocks!

February 01, 2006 6:57 PM

Derek, I KNOW!!

SSB, awe, thanks. I was worried.

February 01, 2006 7:10 PM

I am absolutely positive it wasn't me, but I am for sure part of the 10,000 visitors! Rock on!

February 06, 2006 12:32 PM

Astrid, and I am so glad that you helped me to that 10,000!

February 06, 2006 12:53 PM

At least it's nothing too serious.Hope you'll be feeling 100% soon.

January 26, 2006 10:47 AM

Glad to hear that you are doing better. I know what you mean about 'knowing' it's not bronchitis - I had that once (well, probably more, but ya know) and I swear to GOD I thought my lungs had totally died. Breathing = pain. That was the time I actually quit smoking cold turkey for 6 days. Of course, the 7th day had me going out for smokes again. Ah, memories, aye?

January 26, 2006 11:06 AM

Glad to hear you're feeling better, Sylvana.

January 26, 2006 3:33 PM

Pink Lady, I did a pretty good job drinking lots of fluids and taking guaifenesin (a must have for cold season! Plus I've been eating clementines and dropping vit C supplements like they were candy. Otherwise I probably would have pneumonia by now!

Indiaiynke, I have had bronchitis LOTS of times! I mentioned before that colds are especially nasty for me because they go straight to my lungs. That's why I get so worried when I get one. Luckily I have only had pneumonia a few times. Yes, bronchitis feels like an elephant has parked its rear on your chest and refuses to budge.

The Doc, thanks. So am I. Now I can finally go to Narnia and my parents' house for a visit!

January 26, 2006 5:12 PM

I'd just like to be able to smell again (although it is nice when changing diapers). I guess this flu we have going around here in the Northwest hangs on for weeks. Hope you are feeling 100% soon Syl.

January 27, 2006 1:21 PM

I'm tempted to move to Wisconsin. It's a minimum of $125 here in NJ for doctor visits and $50 to $100 for prescriptions. Thank goodness I have health insurance and a prescription program.

January 28, 2006 5:02 AM

I'm glad you got a good doctor. I keep trying to convince my husband that we should move to France but he doesn't listen.

Best of luck with the insurance, though, especially for your kid.

January 28, 2006 6:55 AM

Not the best thing to visit you first when you had a bad cough. The good thing, thoug, is that you are riding it out now.

January 28, 2006 8:54 AM

Glad you're feeling better!

January 28, 2006 11:00 PM

I sure wish they US would sort out the medical. It is a down right shame! There is no reason for US citizens to have to go without proper medical insurance. Glad your doing better and you didn't have to sell your first born to get better.

January 29, 2006 3:14 AM

Oh dear Sylvana, your have such a sore chest
Like this poor poem its not one of my best
A poem for you my poor coughing friend
Whatever it causes it time for its end

For Sylvania chest is as heavy as lead
Her nose is as red as a publicans red head
The bagpipes it seems will mirror her wheeze
Bronchitis won’t go with some haggis and cheese

Awaken the cold it time to p….? off
Take no cough lollies to counter that cough
Don’t bother your chemist he’s coping okay
No need for prescription bloody cold please go away

Trust in your engine fill up with food
Oranges and lemons to alter your mood
Her future is rosy like a rose’s new bloom
Return to your health I do hope so soon

January 30, 2006 5:31 AM

DrMax, my nose is finally clear, now I just have to get all the gunk out of my lungs.

OldRoses, I might be a little off on that amount. I'm going by the visits that we paid to cover our deductible when we had insurance. We'll see when I get the bill.

Elizabeth, do they have good doctors in France? Or is it that they have universal health coverage?

Behrooz, welcome to my blog! Yeah, it's kind of depressing right now, but you can always check out my archives for more interesting stuff!

Shannon, thanks! I was worried that I would still be sick by this coming weekend and that would all around SUCK! But I think that I should be in pretty good shape.

Wendy A, so much of a person's success in life depends on their health. I can't believe that this country hasn't woken up yet!

Lindsay, I have been drinking lots of green & citrus tea, rose hip tea, eating lots chicken soup. It has been helping.

January 30, 2006 9:40 AM

I thought about tagging you Syl. but figured you had the 100 things on your side margine.

I love survivor. biggest looser, American Idol, but the BULL RIDING CHAMPIONSHIP is by far my favorite. Have you ever seen bull poker??? What a hoot.

January 25, 2006 3:41 AM

Wendy A, I thought you DID tag me! I forgot to put who tagged me in the post. Oops. You didn't? I must be going nuts, or there is another blogger with my tag-name.

Bull poker is AWESOME! Speaking of people who have gone nuts! You can tell the newbies from the old pros. Or is it the sobers from the drunks?

Oh, and you will always find out new things about me that will make you go, hmmmm....

January 25, 2006 8:07 AM

Well you can eat chocolate watching your TV shows.Some of my favourites are there as well.

January 25, 2006 8:35 AM

Haven't been by for awhile and wanted to say hi!
I see you added some new 'stuff' to your sidebar... cool!

January 25, 2006 4:10 PM

Awwwww Syl....dang it....(sniff).....thanks. You always prove to me the kindness of Wisconsinites.

January 25, 2006 4:26 PM

Pink Lady, mmm... chocolate. I'm going to eat lots of it once I get rid of this cold!

Sierrabella, I saw that you got back from your break. Hope you had lots of fun and rest.

DrMax, hey, what can I say? Your blog rocks!!

January 25, 2006 4:49 PM

Can't wait to meet you in New Zealand. We have lots of room.

January 25, 2006 10:55 PM

Syl- I did tag you! Sorry.I am going nuts, not you. I was thinking about it but I...it must be early onset of something. Maybe it was that bull poker round that I played...

January 26, 2006 3:18 AM

Chocolate is definitely a food group, but I would have put it as #1 rather than #4.

January 26, 2006 5:20 AM

Kathleen, we're going to be pretty much broke for the next couple of years, but hopefully after that! Maybe if we can get plane tickets and enough people who will put us up we could do it sooner.

Wendy A, whew! Not that it would have surprised me if it was me going nuts. I pretty much had that figured out in junior high.

OldRoses, I love chocolate, I mean I REALLLY LOVE CHOCOLATE, but in moderation. It makes it oh so much better!

January 26, 2006 8:30 AM

I didn't know you wanted the Monk DVDs...You know, your birfday's coming up...



(now you'll really be surprised when you open up that toaster cozy!)

January 26, 2006 9:56 PM

SSB, so's yours!
