Did it when I started blogging last year, though it's nowhere near as interesting as yours.
Blog crush? For the last time, Minty, you must get over me! We are not destined to be together, due to the fact that I cannot stand female genitalia! Move on and rebuild your life, woman, for it cannot and will not happen!
Hahaha - Im laughing at Jays comment!!!

Im going to do it too !!

"Just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You don’t need to be coy, roy

Hop on the bus, gus
You don’t need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free"

Thank you for the idea, I made thank-you link also :)
I tried it too. Good idea Mint. Come take a look at my blog - pretty please??? :P
I knew that loss in the spelling bee would be the end of my love life. Damn !
And Minty, you have created quite a meme here, I hope you realise !!
"28. I go through periods during which I swear too much."
