Readers Digesting

How to Read Hollysthoughts.com

Here's a few pointers for you guys about how to go about reading this here blog.

Point #1.
There are three different kinds of posts that seem to pop up around here. Let me explain.

Type 1 consists of short, stupid, extremely random thoughts that I had while out in the world sometime during that day/week/unknown amount of time. Either it was something I found ironic, something I found really hilarious, or, most likely, something I got really excited about.
Examples:
Department of Motor Vehicles
laaaaame
Blog Interrupted
12 Year Old Kid That Made Me Smile

Type 2 is what I call "FACTS:". Where, you guessed it, I list facts. About my life. Your life. Thing's I've seen. Stupid things. Important things. All sorts of stuff. Okay, and even if they aren't all "FACTS:" they're just a big jumble of random thoughts.
Some of my favorite "FACTS":
Facts of My Childhood
Randomness Enough For Last Few Weeks


Did you know... March

Type 3 are the serious ones. Now, these don't happen all that often, because basically I keep this a place of silly thoughts and entertainment, not deep thoughtfulness. But, such is life, and sometimes I want to share it. And sometimes, I DON'T want to share it, but I end up doing it because I get frustrated and the only way for me to work through it is to write it out. So... yeah. These I call my "RANTS." Because I'm usually frustrated about something that happened. These, however, are the posts I get the most comments on, and the best comments to boot. Maybe 1 in 10 or 12 posts are Rants.
Highly Rated Rants:
What I Hope My Words Say
The Mormon Vibe

Point #2: Don't take things around here too seriously. Yeah, it's meant to be light-hearted.

Point #3: 2010 was the best year for hollysthoughts.com. Going back is always good.

Point #4: Leave lots of comments. It's hard, I know, but I love them like a fat kid loves cake... oh wait, that's me....

Point #5: Yes, there really IS an Obese Cat in the "Life, your face, and an obese cat". His name is Diego, and he is my baby. He is mentioned in nearly every post, and although I aim to make him a favored part of the blog, I really don't think people like him. PSH. HE'S ADORABLE, PEOPLE! I don't get it.

Point #6. I also write a book review blog: darklightlullabye.com. Feel free to check that one out as well. I'm also on goodreads.com WHICH IS THE BEST SITE EVEEEEEEEEER (I try not to talk about it all the time, but truly I have a deep and endearing love for goodreads).

Point #7. I really enjoy having people actually read this stuff, like any blogger, really.

Point #8. If you ever have any questions about anything I ever write, whether it be about the Mormon thing, the school thing, the writing thing, the DIEGO thing... whatever, feel free to ask. I'm actually a pretty nice person. Maybe. I think.

Point #9: CHECK OUT THE FISH... if you click, you can feed them. I love these fish to death, I'm telling you, I could spend so much time sitting here...
