Blog Hopping


Okay, so I've been blog-hopping this morning, just hitting next blog on the top of the page. How does this work? This is fascinating to me. Today's trip was into the Rap world. I don't like rap in general, so why rap? I have to say it was kinda funny to see all these people who are going to be great rap stars. Does this happen in all music genres? Interesting. The funniest was from a 22 yr old kid who was still unemployed, trying to get some gigs and using a few words we used to get our mouths washed out for and then blessing God at the end. Seems to be some disconnect there.
I have been through a few blog hops in the last couple of weeks. Seen a lot of peoples kids, a few peoples crafting and apparently lots of bloggers really, really like to take pictures of the food they eat. One time I ended up on underwear sites. That was funny and often creepy, didn't hit the next button too many times on that one. I've been on hops that were all one religion based, the Hindus, Mormons and Muslims were interesting. One time I ended up in India on a bunch of sites belonging to engineers, way to deep for this shallow mind!
Now I have to look at why I am doing this. When it started it was mainly because I was bored. I was waiting for the kids to finish school and was reading a friends blog and saw the next blog button. Was it blogs she liked? Was it in the order of who signed up next? The squirrel in me had to investigate. Fascinating study in human beingness. Now I hit it and wonder "what will I get today?" and start pushing. Is this vouyerism? Is it a kind of gossiping? Would I want my children to do this? Must do some deep internal pondering I think.
