Daddy's Back! Also, a word from Carson Daly

Thankfully, I'm not dead, or gravely ill, or quitting my blog, or trapped under something heavy, as many lovely readers and my mother have concluded from my tragically long hiatus.

As you know, I was afflicted with a serious case of blog burnout, which was directly followed by an epic (but awesome) work project that left no time for blogging. So although I've been totally re-inspired recently, I've only had time to do a little twittering (tweeting?), a little tumbling (tumblring?), and a lot of actual work.


Now my project is winding down, and I've got a ton of new ideas and great reader questions to answer. I'm toying with the idea of adding a daily feature in addition to the usual content, something like a daily cheap Etsy find or a daily haiku. Any opinions/ideas/preferences? I asked my boyfriend, who suggested a Daily Carson Daly Quote, which I'm trying out today:

"Tara [Reid] is such an amazing actress. She's so good at what she does. I learned a lot from watching her."
-Carson Daly

OK, yeah, that was the worst idea ever. Better stuff coming soon, I swear!

Like Eminem, I wanna sit between Carson Daly and Fred Durst and hear them argue over which one she gave head to first.

The Carson Daly quote was the perfect start to my work morning, no lies.

Woohoo! I'm excited you're able to post again! :) And haikus always rock my socks. I would one hundred percent read your awesome haikus.

Lisa said...

LOL!

Oh, Carson. Truly, you were the voice of a generation.

A daily Etsy find would be amazing! Or, if you're inclined to make it a daily quote feature? Karl Lagerfeld. "Gratitude is a sticky feeling."

aw, you're back! I second the daily quote option although perhaps someone other than Carson Daly...an Etsy feature would be awesome as well.

LallaLydia said...

Yay! Glad your back and I think you should make ALL of those a daily feature (they could alternate every few days or so...) Or just put up random pics that "inspire" you (which is what half a million bloggers do anyway!

Lookin slick, Tara!
I can't wait for more fun reader questions!
I think an Etsy find would be a good idea. It'd certainly satisfy anyone who said that you should adjust your blog to the recession! And who doesn't love Etsy? I think a plain old daily quote could be cool, too.

Just plain old Winona whenever it's possible is fine, too :)

Going off that daily quote example... how about a daily Bad Idea?
(E.g. rubber shoes, Miley Cyrus in general, pegged pants, etc.) Infinite amusing possibilities!
