Bloglines has made me a bitch...

OK. So let's be real here. I was a bitch way before I started using Bloglines. But now I'm a bitch to my blogging friends too and that's just not right. [sigh] I don't remember which of your blogs had a link to Bloglines, but I followed it a few weeks ago and now I'm in Blog Readers Heaven. I glance at my little blue and white Bloglines icon at the bottom of my screen every few minutes, I see the little red exclamation point telling me there's been an update, and I click it to see which one of my subscribed blogs has been updated in the past 10 minutes. But wait. It gets better. So then I just click on whatever blog has been updated and the new blog entry appears... right there in the same window I'm already in. Ahhhh....

So how has that made me a bitch? Well, see, the one drawback of reading all of your usual blogs in Bloglines is that you can't comment through Bloglines. To do that, you actually have to go to the blog and comment like usual. Well, see, I'm lazy. And to read a blog entry, and then click on it to go to that exact same entry in another browser window just to add a comment seems like too much work. So instead, I just don't comment. Which is downright rude. [sigh]

So for all of you out there that have blogs that I used to comment on, please know that I am absolutely, positively still reading each and every one of your entries. I'm just a lazy piece of shit (and a bitch) that doesn't take the time to tell you that by commenting on your blogs. (Although I still comment in my head, and damn, I'm funny. LOL!)

So if you've wondered why I haven't made any witty comments or offered any profound advice on your blogs lately (That was all sarcasm. I swear.), it's because I'm now a Bloglines Bitch. Those bastards are going to take over the world, I tell ya...

I am *addicted* to Bloglines. LOVE IT! But the same thing happens to me, except usually I just don't have time "at that moment" to go comment and then days go by and I remember I never made it over to comment. Damn it!
