Can you say "rubber ball," boys and girls?
One minute, I'm at #17. The next, I'm at #7. Three minutes later (metaphorically speaking, of course), I'm back near where I was. I just wish the hit counters that be would settle down long enough to keep me in the Daily Top 100's Top 10 for about, say, five hours, during the busiest time of day, to boot. I can dream, can't I? (smile) Oh, well, it's nice while it lasts.

Eureka! I've got it!
Jemmie, Whim featured this blog in her Blog Review blog today. That's why - it's the best free publicity I've ever gotten. As I type this comment, however, it's #17 on the Daily Top 100. (I hope all these comments we're leaving stick around for a while so I can see myself at #1 - that would be a great feeling.) BTW, she's doing the #1 in each category as well as the bottom ranking blog in the same category, and this is consistently the #1 blog in health. Has been for some time.

Eerie...
As soon as I posted my comment and went back to the home page, your blog was gone from new posts.  I'm seriously confuzzled!

Beats me, Jemmie
Haven't the foggiest - maybe my lucky charm is finally kicking in.  I hope so, with the luck I've been having the past few days.

How'd you do that?
I read your blog earlier today--and now it's at the top of the new posts again.  I know from experience that editing the blog doesn't make it appear on new posts, so how'd you do that?
