My Eyes Feel Like They're Gonna Bleed

I guess Google Reader can't count past 1000. For the first time since last the Friday before Thanksgiving, I checked Google Reader to find 1000+ unread items.

In between laundry, house cleaning, going through a weeks worth of emails, and deprogramming my children's new found belief that there is always someone available to play with them, I'll do my best to read a few blogs and attempt to catch up.

In the event that in the past week you've written an unbelievable, earth-shattering post that you are certain I can't live without reading, leave me the link in the comments so it doesn't feel the wrath of the "Mark all as read" button.

Thank you and good day.

30 People are even more brilliant:

I can guarantee you that you have missed nothing at my blog. Except a good Bloody Mary recipe. However, after your latest haiku, I'm guessing you won't need a Bloody Mary for awhile ;)

Well they are all too earth shattering to miss! HAHAHAHAHA!! Check a few of them out, some are really short and the last one has mostly pictures!!! Don't get in any real hurry, I'm sure they could all be marked "read". Hope you had a wonderful time.

Amy @ Taste Like Crazy said...

You just did that too?!

I'm glad that I'm not the only one. I was in the process of talking myself down from "mark as read" guilt when your post popped up on my Reader. :)

Danielle said...

Sounds as though everyone survived the trip. Welcome back!

AndreAnna said...

You might want to check mine - I had some news! ;)

Maggie said...

Wow! Trying to catch up on all that would most definitely make your eyes bleed!

Good luck!

Other than the post where I admitted to being pregnant...I have no really cool or must read items on my blog. ;-)

Go ahead and mark me as read...i don't want your eyes to bleed too much as it will creat a huge mess.

As if I only write one earth shattering post in over a week? Purlease.

Let's see, I wrote this on about Flip Flops for Jesus. And my thanksgiving post dedicated to Mr. Al Key Hall. And let's not forget my post where I told everyone how the "N" word was uttered in my house in relation to poop.

Riveting, earth-shattering, your life will be forever altered posts are all at my blog. As if there are any other types of posts on my blog...

This NaNaGoBloMe thing is really messing with my reader too! I just can't seem to get caught up but I do assure you that you have missed nothing at my place.

Wow, I was getting a headache when my reader was up near 100. ;)

I posted some cute pictures of my little boy eating solid food for the first time, but that's about it. The holiday was a bit crazy for me...

Bossy would like to apply that feature to her regular life: Mark All LAundry As Done, Mark All Children As Raised. etc.

I finally found a solution for the full vs partial feed debate, but it's only useful if you are on wordpress.

Sorry, I got nothin!

Welcome home. I'm sure Alabama missed you, even if you don't reciprocate.

I feel your pain, sister.

I did it too. with the 1000+ staring at me. I marked all as read and now today when someone writes something new I'm just strolling through the last few posts they (cough cough, you) wrote and going from there.

Phyllis Sommer said...

LOL i thought it was just me.

Haha you missed some EXCELLENTLY SUCKY content at my blog. I had 982 in my reader this morning. I'm at 382 now. And getting a LOT of work done today!

Cecily R said...

Good grief you aren't missing much. My kids said some funny stuff and my husband farted and blamed the baby. Pretty typical. :)

Sarcasta-Mom said...

LOL. Nothing earth-shattering here.....

MaryJo said...

I'm sure you'd be heartbroken to miss my post about Baby Tad's poop and how we howl at sirens. Now that's earth-shattering.
Love your blog!

Mark all as read button....I must have missed that. I had 400+ but I've erased...well fake read at least half so far. It's all this RUNNOSNOW that people are doing.

Jean said...

I think I'm finally caught up..with the mark as read reading of course. :)
For some damn reason I can't log in to my own blog..I have to log in by making a comment..it makes no sense it's hubbies work laptop as mine is down. I'm rambling now..I'm just passing through to log in. :)

courtcourt said...

And here I thought *I* was behind, because my Google reader got over 200. Oy!

I have nothing earth shattering. I was, like you, attempting crap all for the sake of nablahblah.

1000? Holy crap! I hyperventilate when it gets over 100.

Hmm, the only one you may want to check out (although I've been told it's a tear jerker) is "He was someone's baby".
It's up to you, I won't hunt you down if you don't!

ya...i'm currently trying to pare down the 1000+ posts in Google Reader...yikes!

i have a hard time marking all as read, so i'm going through and making sure i skim through my fave bloggers (don't you feel special?) before i hit that damn button!

man, NaBloPoMo is killing me!

Nice! Have a pleasant holiday shopping season.

Even reducing the quantity of fat your body absorbs a day can dramatically cut back the amount of calories that you simply consume on each day and this in flip will cause Garcinia Select Prime Extract.
