And I certainly won’t be doing it . . . at least not in October! I have one more BBW post to write and then I need a break for a few days
(Though I have been considering the yearly post a day challenge for 2012 – yikes!)

Thanks for including me Dayle!
I didn’t have time to Saturday Sharing this week. Plus, I’m still using my Mom’s laptop and it’s all different and makes me not want to blog. lol Which is weird I guess.
Posted by Dayle Fraschilla on October 2, 2011 at 12:01 am
It might be weird, but it’s a weirdness I can relate to . . . though, I can relate to most weirdnesses
I have a very particular set up on my computer for my blog. I’m kind of a desktop folder junkie. So if I was on someone else’s computer, I would have trouble motivating myself to blog because it will throw my whole system out of whack!

Thanks for the mention again!
I need to make time to check out all the other blogs you mentioned!
I just realized BBW or Banned Books Week also stands for Big, Beautiful Woman….LOL…:D
Posted by Dayle Fraschilla on October 3, 2011 at 9:29 pm
No problem! . . . I still haven’t gotten to the blogs you mentioned . . . I will though, I swear!
LMAO at the Big, Beautiful Woman thing . . . I read this yesterday when I was in the car with my friend (headed to pick up the new fuzzies) and I literally laughed out loud!

Aww thanks so much for including my Huancayo post in your batch this week, Dayle! It means a lot to me, especially because I try not to do touristy posts too much. =) What an honor to be part of such an amazing group of bloggers. Thank you! =) Hugs!
Posted by Dayle Fraschilla on October 3, 2011 at 9:30 pm
You’re quite welcome!
I loved the post because you provided all of the reasons to visit that were NOT the touristy reasons . . . that’s what makes me want to go!
