Hoping to end the year with 50,000 hits

 

 

     With only a few weeks left to this year, I’m afraid I won’t reach my 50,000 hits goal.  (More would be even better.)  Well, so far it looks as though I won’t make it, at least, not without your help.  Hurry dear readers; tell your family, friends, and blog buddies to pop in for a peek.  Bribe them, sweet-talk them, and lie to them if you must.  I have a bet with Dear Hubby, there’s a dinner out riding on this.  Help me please—we don’t get out much. 

     How can I induce you?  Cuter dog pictures?  More talks with the editor on my shoulder?  More serious discussions on writing?  Arguments with my muse?  More dog stories?  Life with Dear Hubby and his MS stories?  Stories of me the super klutz and life with two BTs?  Have you any suggestions?  

     There are only two things I refuse to comment on—religion and politics.  I’ll leave that to other people since I created this blog for fun and I consider both subjects private.

  1. Have faith (or does that qualify as a religious comment?)

    Look, you’re less than 1500 hits away from 50G and you’ve got 24 days to go. That’s less than 65 hits a day, well within the do-able range.

    I check in first thing in the morning to see what the topic is (and I’ve never seen one I didn’t find interesting–so anything you write is fine with me) then several times throughout the day to see what comments have been posted.

    As the executioner said to Bluebeard the pirate as he put the rope around his neck, “Hang in there.”

  2. Ok I’m here…that’s one more hit you racked up. If you like I’ll hand the keyboard over to EmmaLou and we’ll just spend the next few days clicking on your blog. Oh wait, that would be cheating wouldn’t it? Oh my. How about if I promise to do my part to “click” on you each and every day? Or you could get on Twitter and put a daily link to your blog and you might reach this goal. I only have about 7 regular readers or I’d be happy to do a blog posting and ask all of them to click on your link on my post…I’m running out of ideas here sweetie and I’d love to see you win that dinner! If it’s any consolation, since I cancelled my AlphaInventions subscription because I thought viruses were coming from that site, my “hits” have gone down considerably. Sigh…so many words to write and so few readers — I may close down Parchment Monkey, too. Getting off topic here – Think Positive – 50K or bust! Hugs!

  3. Oh, wait a minute. If you get 50K hits, hubby buys you dinner, right?

    I love ya, dear, but I’ll see you after the first of the year.

    Us guys gotta stick together.

  4. Oh look I’m back. Muahahahaha. I’ll ask everyone to click on my link to you so you get your dinner! Remember I only have about 6 faithful readers – but they are faithful and kind and would no doubt love to help you. Yes, this is definitely worthy of a blog post. Now, how do I make it funny? Oh crap, I’ll just add a little more rum to my eggnog, write it up and get it posted before I have time to edit it – that should work.

  5. Alrighty – I clicked your blog from my Parchment Monkey site so you get another hit (http://parchmentmonkey.wordpress.com) shameless plug — just to let you know Tuesday’s blog post on Crone and Bear It aims to get you some more hits. You are a faithful reader of mine and trying to help you win this thing is the least I can do. Never let it be said I don’t do the least I can do. Hah – eggnog rules. And if you’re still speaking to me bloggy-wise after Tuesday, well that’s a good thing, too. Bwahahahaha…

  6. Tuesday’s blog has been posted – don’t say you weren’t warned. It should result in at least…oh…two hits? Maybe? Hugs!

  7. I came over from Crone and Bear It. When she says JUMP, I say how high?

    You remind me of my father. My whole life he insists that the best way to lose friends is to discuss relition and politics. LOL True tho, for sure.

  8. Linda sent me. Good luck with your bet.

  9. I’m here courtesy of Linda at Crone & Bear It … or parchment monkey … or her other, other blog (she is a busy lady – I can barely keep up with one little ol’ neglected blog!). Good luck on your 50,000 hits, You’re bound to make it! Your blog is intriguing, gotta go to bed now, but I’ll be back soon to check it out further!
