My 15 minutes are up

Edited to Add on 07.08.2008: I'll be starting a comment's hall of fame based on this post. Until I have an official dedicated post for it, here is the start...

In the future everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes

Yep, that's right. My 15 minutes are up and I've had my day to shine. Last week in the middle of my road trip chaos, my blog was a featured blog of the day on The Secret is in the Sauce (SITS). It's a fun, awesome site just recently started by a couple of fellow comment junkies. They feature one blog a day with three of your blog posts and encourage all of the "members" to check out the posts. Here is the post where I was featured.

I had a terrible time choosing three posts. I finally decided on these three:

• You couldn't pay me to try that again: If there had been an I Love Lucy episode where Lucy took two small kids to the grocery store, this would have been the episode.
• I a pirate!: The day Reagan decided she was going to be a pirate and no school uniform was going to stop her.
• Hello sushi lover!: Pics of Reagan eating sushi and a little tutorial for those that have never ventured into the world of sushi.

I had over 900 hits on the site and close to 300 comments in my 24 hours. On a normal day, I'll see anywhere from 175-200 hits so I was definitely feeling the love. I had some great comments. Of course, I also get some awesome comments from people that have been regularly reading my blog all along. Some of you are way more clever than me. So I think from now on, from time to time I'll do a little feature post where I'll highlight some of my favorite comments that people have posted. I'm going to start a comments hall of fame where I'll keep the all time best.

Here are excerpts of some of my favorites from the day:

Grocery store:

• EmBee said...My guess is the Publix sold out of contraceptives right after you left the store.
• Judy Haley said...its 7am and just reading that story made me crave a glass of wine, a bath, and a nap.better luck next time.
• Mamasphere said...Hmmm, maybe I shouldn't have two?
• Angela said...Ew, digits in a pot roast! Sounds like a horror movie!

Pirate:

• Melanie said... And I have a new word, Craptastic...
• EmBee said...Let your freak flag fly Reagan!
• Jen said... boy, I wish my son would be a pirate. He is stuck on being a princess.

Thanks to everyone new and old that reads my blog! It was really fun to be queen for the day.
