Calling Carina the Blogarina...Delurker Week

-
Did y'all know it was DE-LURKER week? No, neither did I.. I think it is a FAB..idea, but seeing as i missed the damn thing, can i have a do over? Please? Can we make next week a de-lurker week as well...

So you are probably am wondering why I am calling ol' Carina from Carina the Blogarina out...
She is NOT a LURKER.. for sure... This is a great blog I found today after she started following me... (#76 thanks chick...) lets not forget #75 Sarah's Smorgasbord of Sweets....
(yes Kat... I know, you are rocking almost 300.. have I told you lately that you are a SUPAH Star?)

So anyway, I clicked on over to Carina the Blogarina to say Howdy... that is where i saw the
de-lurker week announcement.... Me wanting to play by the rules, am of course going to leave a comment... Um... but I am unable to... I thought it was because I was on my work computer...

(not that I blog from work.. I would NEVER do that... because blogging on the company $ or kroner is just WRONG...) So I figured I would try from home... No Go Joe.... I keep getting this TWITTER TWATTER pop up, (can we say ANNOYING? ) So I even joined Twitter so I could leave a comment... NOOOOOO... what is the deal?
So now it is my mission to find out what the HELL is wrong with her comments...or is it just ME? ( I am sure it is just me... but now this is bugging me, & I don't want to get the rep. for being a big ol' lurker when I am not!)

So would y'all trek on over & see if it is just ME? Give the girl some loving... then fill me in on the secret.

Speaking of lurkers.... Guess what? BRENDA from GUELPH left me a really nice comment! Hi Brenda! So cool... I guess she doesn't know Inge though..


OK... my pain killers are starting to wear off... Remember I went to the dentist today...ARGGG..

Tomorrows post,
why going to the dentist is like going to the gynecologist....

Delurker week is a great idea :-) I got the same twitter username/password thing, no idea why that happens, or what to do!

I think that there should be a shout out to Kat week. You are almost there :-) I keep trying to convince my husband of my supahstah status...but he is so not rolling out the red carpet.

And for my followers...ummm...ya'll got them the "natural" way...mine were bribed. And it shows because two people left me this week. I'm going to go and cry into my Coke zero now...

I've never thought of the dentist in that way, but I think I agree!

So I am a lurker too. I am jealous that you get to live in beautiful Norway. Well, it was extremely beautiful in the summer, I am not sure how I would do in the winter. My dh has spent the last several years working with Nordics and we have once again rekindled our love of all things Nordic - well, minus those odd fishy things they served us at the last party. But I digress. I really enjoy reading about all of your experiences living there.

Cheers,
Betsy

How can you tell if someone lurks on your blog? (newbie)

I've been lurking on your blog for a few months now and thought this seemed like the right time to make a comment. My husband just got accepted to NTNU to get his PHD so we'll (with our two year old daughter) be moving next January from Montana to Norway. The whole thing still seems surreal but it's been so much fun reading your blog and getting another American's perspective on Norway. We'll be in Trondheim for at least three years. Thanks for giving me a little glimpse of the good and the bad regarding the country! Lacy

Just stumbled onto your blog and can't wait to see how the gyno is like the dentist! Is it the whole insertion into an orifice thing? Or is it putting your feet in the stirrups (what? you mean your dentist doesn't make you put your feet in stirrups? weird.) I'll be back tomorrow!

Loving the delurking day! I'm not a lurker, just an inconsistent commenter.. and I totally prefer the gynecologist to the dentist.

Everyone should know about de-lurking week, shouldn't we make it de-lurking month, how about year? For some reason it ALWAYS makes me curious to know who in Japan reads my blog. Hope you feel better soon, I HATE the dentist!

Nope, I can't comment either. Twitter pops up and I am just not going to join that one. Reading blogs the old fashioned way is enough for me.

Hey- I was right it was my aunt and just so you know how special that message was- she has never left a comment on MY blog!!! You're lucky with the followers. I got a creepy follower- or at least some anonymous person with no blog of their own and a creepy user name :( How the hell did I get THAT with my few followers?? I blocked them but they can still see my blog of course cause its public. They've never left a comment either.

PS- The creepy lurker has really put a damper on my enthusiasm for blogging, especially sharing photos of my cute little baby :( Any advice from a blogging guru?

Nope - me either. I'm still sort of new, and I don't know much about Twitter. I would rather go to te gyn than the dentist any day, does that make me weird?

Shoot, the gyny is usually only looking at your whoo-ha and not spening the entire day in there.

I do wish people would de-lurk more. I always leave comments on blogs I visit. But some people don't know how to comment...or worry they will say something stupid...or just don't like to take the time to do it...or don't realize how much we like comments? Not sure.

I could get her comments to work but they were a pain to get to.

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood...

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long...
