Did I forget to mention that for a while, my site was plagued with visitors who found me by doing a google search for "woman + peeing + outside" and "peeing outside"?
What kind of sick shit is that?
There are a number of legitmate sites (and by "legitimate" I guess I mean sites that the sick fucks who did the search in the first place would not be interested in) that come up on such a search. (I looked into this, Blogger's "bstats" is a beautiful thing.) One can find tips for potty training a new puppy, or litter box training a kitten. But I find it hard to believe that any thinking person would believe that typing "peeing outside" in a search engine would be the most efficient route to finding that information. Thus the problem, and the fascination, with search engines. You can find the American Kennel Club website or "Jilian's Fart Diary" with the same phrase (I will spare you the hotlink to Jilian's site). And of course, you can find lots of hard core porn.
I spent a good deal of time thinking about the people who found me this way. Did they immediately leave when they realized my site does not feature any crotch shots? Are these men? Perhaps it is prejudicial of me, but I have a hard time imagining woman who suffer from this fetish. Then I thought, maybe I'm the prude. Maybe urine is and should be turn on. That lasted for about twelve seconds. Then I started to feel pity. For the obvious reasons. I guy in stained boxer shorts hanging out in his mom's basement, looking for love or it's substitute. Or a business man with a dirty little secret. And I got a little freaked out that my little freedom-of-self-expression-experiment might bring me into contact (albeit digital contact) with such people. But it is all part of living in this world, and in the end, I wouldn't choose to stay sheltered, even when I consider the searches I'll pop up on after this post.
I am sitting at my desk tonight sipping a rootbeer float and reflecting on bitchin' start I've got on my new year's resolutions.
I jump on my trampoline every day. I cleaned out my filing cabinet and cleared the dust bunnies from under the bed. I use the food processor Ben got me for Christmas to fullest advantage (pizza crusts, egg rolls, crackers, macadamia butter cookies...). I practice meditation from a book Iss got for me. All my Christmas decorations are put away.
However, there are some areas that could use some improvement. Blogging, for instance. It may be bumpy for a while longer, my computer needs a major overhaul. I shall try to be less diligent in my duties at work, and therefore more diligent in my blogging. Stick with me, I'll make it worth your while eventually.
