You may have noticed that bluish Like button just under the title? I’d read about Facebook’s release of their Like button early last week but I never thought of putting one on my wee little blog. Not until Yellow Submarine left a comment in my last post about how she “likes (the) post like a witty FB status you can’t ignore”. So I thought, why not? Sure, I may only have 4 or 5 readers (love ya!) but this would certainly make it handy for them to share the links that I post with their other friends on Facebook. And we all know that I’m all about pleasing my friends… *does lame clicky sound with a wink and finger-gun pointing*
(Hands up if you just copied that move.)
Then I also reasoned: Every now and then, someone doing a Google search stumbles upon this blog and who knows, one of my posts might just provide a high school student or some random person with information that is deemed valuable or interesting enough to share with friends, but she doesn’t wanna have to access her email to share this post… that’s just too much of a hassle… oh, lookie here! Whaddya know? There’s a Like button right there! Now, thanks to this button, this person can just click on it, and share it with all of her friends on Facebook. Now, wasn’t that easy? That, my friends, is what I call FORWARD THINKING.
I know. I’m incredibly thoughtful.
Even if you’re a small-time (and sporadic) blogger like me, go ahead. Let’s all embrace Facebook’s Like button. Let’s be thoughtful together.
I can’t remember if I’ve mentioned this before but I’m one of those who’d immediately sing to myself if anybody mentions a word or phrase that reminds me of lyrics to a song I know. I don’t know many others like me but I never thought I’d find my aunt doing the same thing. I remember clearly that it happened during a church service, when every song that she sang to herself was exactly what I was singing in my own head. It was then that I knew that music truly runs in the family.
Already, all the cousins are musically-inclined in our own special way. Put the entire extended family together and we’d be more than happy to entertain ourselves for hours, as long as there’s a guitar around. And I must say, none of us are bad singers. :p In fact, it takes very little for the cousins to get excited about singing together. Earlier this month, we were convinced we’d do a decent job with our own rendition of Glee’s version of Lean on Me that we even bought sheet music. Alas, we’ve only had that one practice since so I honestly have no idea when we’d finish learning the whole song. Heh.
Wow. That sure was a long intro to prove my point. Anyway, so earlier this evening, one of my younger cousins and I had a very short Twitter convo that only music-holics would approve:
@bittymacbeth: Ironing and listening to The Temper Trap. I think Five Iron Frenzy would be more apt …? HAHA, lame pun, I know sorry.
@allysont: @bittymacbeth I disagree. Iron Maiden would be more apt. Hur hur… :p
@bittymacbeth: @allysont Before I say “or Hot Hot Heat” HAHA THAT SHOWS YOU’RE LAMER THAN I AM!!
@allysont: @bittymacbeth What can I say? The ability to think up lame puns totally runs in the family.
This coming from 2 cousins who came up with code names for ourselves, all based on bands/song titles. Yes, we’re geeks.
