Oh, just paint an "L" on my forehead and be done with it!
I love my Site Meter! It's so exciting knowing how many people visit my little blog, and even more fascinating contemplating where they are visiting from!
Hello Arizona! G'day Melbourne!
Top o' the morning to you, Dublin! Ciao Firenze!
Hey Arlington!
(Wow, I haven't posted in a month and I still have a gazillion visitors to my blog. I MUST ROCK!!!)
Hello again, Arlington!
Back so soon, Arlington?
(Same IP address...Wow, you must really love my blog! Aren't I feeling wicked awesome about myself?)
Uh, Arlington? 37 visits in one day? You are starting to creep me out!
(OMG, I have a stalker! I have a stalker! Eeek! Must call Super Dad at work! Reveling in the drama of it all by this point. )
Hi Super Dad. I must be a big time blogger now. I'm being stalked!!!
What's that, you say?
Wait a minute. You mean to tell me that our new Internet Service Provider is based in Arlington?
The IP address? Hold on a minute, I'll get it.
Checking Site Meter now. Checking....checking.....
Oh, okay. Nevermind. (I hang up, feeling deflated.)
* * * * * * *
Ahem.
This is a Public Service Announcement from Moodswinging Mommy for Users of Site Meter: If you happen to change internet service providers, make sure you set your Site Meter to ignore visits from your new IP address!!! K? Thanks. Bye.
Now where did I put my dunce cap?
ooo you are too silly. Glad it was a false alarm.
cheers

so you checked your blog 37 times in one day, huh? Hee Hee that is too funny!

LOL! I've totally done this, too!

Only 37 times? You are totally slacking.

This is hilarious to me. I was sure I had a cell phone stalker once-- called from an unlisted number and mumbled into my answering machine... My husband's new cell phone got turned on in his pocket and it just kept calling and calling. I wish I'd listened more closely to the mumbles before erasing the messages!

Cautionary tale. Thanks. Also, I totally love sitemeter.

I love this idea! I think I"m going to do it as well - saying hello to the different cities like this. FYI: I have sitemeter but I like active meter better. Have you checked it out?
I came across your blog via WW. I like it a lot. I'll add you to my list and come back and visit again.

I haven't got around to installing a site meter to my new blog yet.
Must do that.
And I will heed your cautionary tale.

Oh, me again *snort*
How do you get away with not posting in a month!!!??!?!?
If I miss a DAY I start getting emails 'where are you?' 'why haven't you posted' 'you better be bleeding in a ditch woman cause that is the only excuse I am taking for you not posting in the last 24 hours'
I must have some seriously cool stalkers.

TOO FUNNY!
It's a good thing, then, that I am a blogger idiot and have never used a site meter.
