i'm making up my own holiday!

yup. it's true...

february 19 is officially...(cause i said so).....

let's back up...

so the 17th is random act of kindness day..

it is. google it.

and while ago i was chatting with some bloggy buddies...and we got onto the subject of comments...

and back at the beginning of this old blog...i rated how good each post was by how many comments they got.

20 comments B

40 comments A..

more than 50 A+

100 comments...okay..that usually meant a giveaway (or rafflecopter i love you)

anyways..this bloggin discussion let to how no one comments anymore. seriously. think back the last time you left a comment that was just to say, i loved this post- it's amazing. 

(hangs head in shame)

 i'm horrible about it.

i mean i see something i like, i pin i tweet i fb (no mom, no of those things are "dirty") i link up in my shout out sundays....

but i forget to leave a comment

i feel cool if i get 4 comments on any post....

(no...this isn't a guilt trip...)

but if you are feeling guilty than it's working {evil laugh}

no. really guys. i did not make up this holiday cause i'm desperate for comments.

actually i want NONE of your comments! (i might even turn it off just to prove my point!) 

I just want you to go in the bloggy land (my favorite place to be--after disneyland of course)

and whatever post you happen to read...

i want you to leave a comment.

these bloggers put blood...(seriously...some use crazy power tools)

sweat, tears, time, energy, child neglect (that one could just be me) eating mac and cheese for dinner 4 nights in a row, getting a hunchback over the computer, late late nights (it's past midnight as i write this) putting up posts for you...

all because of you...their readers. They aren't asked to do it...they actually love doing it...

but sometimes...when they look around...and realize that their floor looks like a rainbow cause their son spilled fruit loops on it 4 days ago and everyone has just been walking on them and they have crumbled into a film that looks like the coolest vinyl floor tile and then wondering if lowe's sells tiles like that..

wait what? oh...sometimes when we look around and see other little things that are put on the bottom of the totem pole...we wonder why bloggin is so high on that list..

and then we get a comment that says ,

 "Omg girl-- that's like the cutest thing ever! i'm totally doing that for [blank's] birthday party."

and we remember why .

(actual cut and pasted comment....name has been omitted...blank is not the real name.)

so let's make february 19 (that's tuesday) 

national leave a comment day!!!!!

 who's in?

(you don't have leave me a comment you can do just a verbal shout out....you still get credit)

here's a button.

<a href="http://kimboscrafts.blogspot.com/2013/02/im-making-up-my-own-holiday.html" target="_blank"><img alt="A girl and a glue gun" src="http://i842.photobucket.com/albums/zz342/kimbowest/chalkboard19_zps77e1f2cf.jpg" /></a>

i mean you can't have a NATIONAL holiday without a button.

so now it's legit.

(related sidenote: I used parenthesis 15 times in this post.

that's got to be a record.

feb 20 is going to be use a bunch of unneeded  parentheses day)

(15 was before these last two)
