Hee hee!! And there's no way on goddess' green earth that I could comment on everything I read. <BR/><BR/>I do the guilt-free blog diet. If I have something to say, I say it. If I don't, I either read it or I don't. And if I decide I have to clean out my unread blogs, I skim. And if there's something I like, I mark it as unread and come back to it when I have time. <BR/>And... I don't mind getting backed up. And I don't feel guilty for deleting someone from my reader. For instance, if someone's constantly spouting off ideas that are neither interesting, and I find boring or offensive, or just plain not worthy of my time, I unsubscribe... <BR/><BR/>Of course, then I get new people to read. That's all your fault, Lou. You have excellent taste in blog reads. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-14322096115000603212009-01-03T12:53:00.000-06:002009-01-03T12:53:00.000-06:00Just switch to reader, read faithfully as I do, bu...Just switch to reader, read faithfully as I do, but comment if and when you get the time.
