Yesterday, I exceeded my bandwidth on my website, which gave me some downtime. I was shocked to see I had over 1000 hits the other day. Just on the blog. I think it’s those folks looking for pics of 300. Who could blame them? That man is SMOKE. ๐
Earlier this week, I was contacted by a place wanting to give me free shoes to review for ShoeIQ. How cool is that? They’ll be Easy Spirit shoes, so as soon as I get them, I’ll be writing reviews of them. And I totally get free shoes. WOO!
I can’t believe it’s already Friday. It makes me mad the week has flown by so fast. And today is Six Flags day. But I have to say, it’s been a really fun week. My mom asked the Sweetie Boy what he thought of Spring Breaks. “They’re fun,” he said. ๐
Not only has it been fun, but it’s also been a week of interesting things happening. The shoe thing for one (which totally ROCKS) and for the other… Well, Samhain Publishing is now going to be a recognized RWA publisher. Which means, for me, I will be considered PAN – professional by RWA standards. I have basically graduated from PRO (unpublished) to PAN. It’s kinda cool, actually. And I’m pretty excited about it. So – congrats to all of us who are making it to PAN! That all being said…I really don’t need someone telling me I’m a “professional” writer when I already think it. ๐
Anyway – it’s Six Flags! I haven’t been there in about 6 or 7 years. They have lots of new thrill rides. The baby boy is excited about going and I’m excited for him – it’s his first time. I hope he does okay. I’m sure he will – but I worry about him still. I hope he doesn’t chicken out on the rides or I’ve just blown about $35 on a ticket for him. Ah well. At least he can keep my mom company if he decides not to ride. hehe
And now I’m off. Must dry my hair, get stuff together, get the baby dressed. And I still have to run by the store and get some stuff for our luncheon-fest at the park.
Happy Friday everyone! ๐
Do you know how COMPLETELY jealous I am that you’re going to Six Flags? I would give my left…well…I would give a LOT at this point to be able to go! Alas, it’s 25 degrees outside and I’m not exactly fit to ride roller coasters. But I Looooooove Six Flags!
Have lots of fun!!! And congrats on the PAN! That is awesome!
Awesome. Just awesome. I guess this is a great definition of a “happy day”. 1000 hits to your blog, free shoes and you’re a PAN (you’ve been all along anyway!) so congrats, Mik :mrgreen:.
Yay to all those things. PAN recognition, free shoes, spring break, Six Flags and life in general!
I can’t believe you get free Easy Spirit shoes! You’re so lucky- are they the Traveltimes? I just got those in black, and I’m trying to win another pair in silver on http://www.toutie.com/ I figure you can never have too many shoes, right?!
Hey Sarah – I have no idea! hahah The shoes shipped yesterday so I should be getting them soon. I’ll have to report back ๐
