Wednesday’s Bits

May 28, 2008 | Filed under: Stuff

Update: A HUGE thanks to all of you who went out and purchased SUPERB AND SEXY, the book is currently sitting at #5 on Amazon’s bestselling romantic suspense list! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

Original Post:
The other day I was looking at my monthly stats for this website and found myself cracking up at the phrases that people searched me out with.

Mommy Loves To Cook!

That one stuck out for me. Because this mommy? Yeah, not exactly loving the cooking portion of my job.

Slacker.

I have no recollection of using that word on my blog, but it could well have been a description of me this weekend. I was not just a slacker, but their Queen.

David Cook’s love child.

This one baffled me. I don’t think I ever mentioned David Cook on my blog but I loved him from his very first American Idol try out and watched him every single Tuesday night. I realize I already have three children but I’d have his love child, no problem. David? Call me.

Blogger’s Choice Awards.

Now this one caught my interest. When I followed the link it’d come from, I discovered I’d been nominated for a Blogger’s Choice Award. Nice! Except I have like five votes. Seriously. Go here and look . . . and if you’re so inclined, feel free to vote. I think six votes looks so much better than five.

How Many Times Have You Sneezed Today?

This one cracked me up. I’ve sneezed twice today, thank you for asking. I’m pretty sure this is from that time I mentioned I’d heard this rumor that if you sneeze eight times, you get an orgasm, which really, is the least your body can do for you if you’re sneezing that much. Just my humble opinion.

    Only 5 votes? That doesn’t seem right. I’m going to have to fix that.

    Damn, I only ever sneeze 3 times.

  2. Judy F says:

    I tried one day to vote it drove me nuts so I quit. I will strive again later.

    I never sneeze more then a couple of times. my sister on the other hand… LOL

  3. Kim A. says:

    Well, cr*p. I don’t sneeze more than twice in a row. But they are mighty sneezes. That ought to count for something too!

    -Kim

  4. Hélène says:

    Voted! You now have 7!
    Last time I sneezed, i was sitting in my car, and hit my head on the steering wheel. Felt like to got whiplash! Luckily i was not driving.
    When i sneeze it’s these loud ones, not those little squeeky ones like my best friend gets.

  5. Liza says:

    You have 8 votes now!

  6. Tina says:

    I might be the culpit on David Cook. You said somthing about Survivor going off and what we were going to watch and I said I had to watch David Cook.

    The first time I saw DC, I turned to my husband and said “MAMA LIKE, MAMA LIKE AT LOT”. I’m 41, happily married w/ 2 kiddos and I’m trying to figure out how I could have his love child especiallly since I have been fixed. LOL.

  7. Veronica says:

    David Cook’s love child? I love it!! I love my search terms.

    Oh and I have sneezed 8+ times and I can honestly tell you that you don’t get to orgasm. Just watery eyes and nose, nothing fun. Sucks really.

  8. limecello says:

    LOL for those searches – and… like Veronica, I don’t believe the sneezing thing either. Horrible allergies have resulted in me sneezing too many times. Nothing good.

  9. Ashley says:

    I’m with the last 2 ladies because if the sneezing thing were true I’d have been a very happy chick the months of March and April!!!!!!!!
    Now I’m off to give you another vote :thumbsup:

  10. Karen Erickson says:

    Key words crack me up. :rotfl:

    Now I’m off to vote…

  11. Jill says:

    Thanks for the votes! And I just went for a hike in the words and didn’t see any bears or pigs. Darn it.

  12. Courtney says:

    Congrats Jill on Superb and Sexy! I picked up my copy yesterday at Border’s and can’t wait to read it this weekend. I LOVE Brody and Maddie and can’t wait to see how they work their relationship out. :smile:

  13. Karin says:

    Those search terms made me laugh, especially the one about sneezing. Like limecello pointed out about allergies, though, sneezing never brings anything good. *sigh*

  14. Cindy says:

    My hubby has been sneezing like crazy…no excitement for him or me LOL. Jill, I got Superb & Sexy on Sunday and DEVOURED IT in one night :) I told my hubby to take our 3 boys and disappear and they did LOL! Wonderful story and a series I will keep on my keeper shelf :)

  15. Mental P Mama says:

    8 sneezes=an orgasm? Where’s the pepper? :bananadance: The Amazon news is FANTASTIC! And not surprising!

  16. Brandy says:

    Congrats on Being #5! WOOT!
    And the sneezing, orgasm thing? Total blooey. Sorry. No, wait I AM sorry considering I sneezed like 10 x’s in a row the other day. (I hate pollen.) *G*

  17. Bailey Stewart says:

    My internet is out, so I had to wait until I found another computer to use (Bebo’s).

    Congrats on the #5!!!!!

    And I’ll go and vote now – this is the best blog around!!!

    I love the search terms, they are hysterical.

  18. Donna McClure says:

    Interesting way people found you but at least they found you! Glad you are getting more votes. I went there once but it wasn’t that easy to vote & I haven’t gone back to try another time! Sorry! I miss getting to come visit your blog everyday! I am still without my computer. Hopefully I will get it back this weekend. I miss having it at my fingertips whenever I decide to use it. Thank heavens for my friend that lets me come use hers once in awhile!
    I haven’t been to a book store but will look forward to Superb & Sexy.
    See you all again, another day! :smile:

  19. Kimberly H says:

    Instead of reading for classes I caved and went out and bought Superb and Sexy… and let me say I AM LOVING IT! It is my favorite out of the three so far:)
    Congrats on the #5! I personally think that it should be higher because it is AMAZING :)
    Hope everyone has a great day!

  20. Bailey Stewart says:

    15 votes now oh klutzy one!

  21. Toni Anderson says:

    I love David Cook too :) Not sure about having his lovechild. I’m over all that ;)

  22. Susan says:

    Congratulations on #5, Jill! :thumbsup:

  23. Cryna says:

    Okay you now have 16 votes. :lol:

    Congratulations on being #5 – and it was not out at Chapter’s yet supposedly this weekend so will have to keep checking.

  24. Arlene says:

    Jill, I need to find you a plaque like mine that says “I only have a kitchen because it came with the house!” :rotfl:

  25. jeanne says:
