Housekeeping
This is so boring, sorry.
I finally got around to cleaning up my blogroll and have taken off some links. If you used to be there and aren’t anymore, it is for one of the following reasons:
- You moved and I don’t have your new site
- We’ve never spoken or we haven’t spoken in many months
- You dumped me first and I took it personally
If you aren’t in one of these categories and I have removed you it was accidental and I apologize and if you let me know I will fix it immediately.
Phase two is adding all the new links I have been too lazy to add over the last several weeks months, and because I am pregnant and therefore tired and stupid I am asking for your help. Are you a regular or even occasional commenter? Are you in my links? If not, it’s an oversight, please let me know so I can add you.
Also, I wanted to get all the pregnant girls together so I don’t have to search my whole list for your sites. If you belong in that group, please let me know because once again I am too tired and stupid to do it myself. Also, if you can think of a better name for that list I’m happy for recommendations.
Finally, how totally adorable is it that I found a pregnancy counter with a little pink fish? I wasn't going to have a counter because I am a snob, but when I saw that I couldn’t resist.
Posted by Beth at March 29, 2005 11:10 AMso wait. i can be listed even if you don't read me? cool beans. link away!*
Counters can be a mixed blessing I think. Great if you're in a good mood and the time just seems to be flying by; horrible if it's a bad day and all you want is for whatever you're waiting for to be here already damn it!
The fish is cute though.
*disclaimer: your blogroll, your choice whether to list me. but you already knew that. :D

Posted by: kat at March 29, 2005 12:27 PMI have a hard time keeping up my blogroll as well. Everything looks in order from this end. The fishy counter is so cute. Nice addition.
Posted by: myllissa at March 29, 2005 12:36 PMThe pink fish is awesome, and, dude! I had no idea you were more than halfway along! Eeek.
Also, I think "Belly Brigade" is an awesome name. If you change it, I'll protest. Or something.
Posted by: Dawnie at March 29, 2005 12:40 PMYeah, I noticed the little pink fish. Very cute.
Posted by: Fraulein N at March 29, 2005 12:50 PMI love the Belly Brigade!! I also agree with the comment above about the counters...one day they are great and the next you hate it...time drags on and on for me, so everyday I hate it basically. Glad to be in your Belly Club :)
Posted by: JuJuBee at March 29, 2005 12:58 PMNice job finding a counter with a fish on it :-) And thanks for the reminder about the belly touching thing...I always forget and end up touching various friends' preggo bellies. eeps.
Posted by: Jessica at March 29, 2005 01:03 PMYou are making me wish I was pregnant again so that I can join your group (and have another little one around). Love the counter - so cute!!!
Posted by: Irene at March 29, 2005 01:10 PMWell, I read every post and comment occasionally and link back. Just to let you know.
Posted by: Willful Exposé at March 29, 2005 01:11 PMI love the new counter. I'm a pretty damn pathetically sporadic commentator :) I do link to you though :) Oh and we share a first name. That should count for some link-y love right? (Just kidding. Quit fussing with Blog Roll and GO GET SOME PREGNANCY CLOTHES ALREADY. :) :))
Posted by: wavybrains at March 29, 2005 01:12 PMhmmm. i won't take it personally that you haven't added me....seeing that i make regular comments and i am also pregnant....
:)
i've also resisted the counter. not sure why though. probably because i'm also a snob!
Posted by: Ali at March 29, 2005 01:13 PMi made the cut, phew!
and i too am a counter snob. not that i have anything to count. but the fish is too perfect.
Posted by: laura at March 29, 2005 01:54 PMMe? I'm going to assume you just don't like me anymore. It's ok... I'm not hurt. really... not at all. *sniff*
Ok, just in case your having a bad day - you forgot me, and I'm teasing. really. I am. maybe.
Posted by: Autumn at March 29, 2005 01:56 PMHa, I was looking at ticker tapes yesterday to record the countdown to my birthday and I saw the fishy thing and thought of you. Isn't it funny that people we don't really know pop in our heads during any given day. That's the blogging world I suppose. Happy cleaning!
Posted by: Kate at March 29, 2005 02:08 PMlink me if ya like my site, Beth, otherwise, please don't feel obligated. Personally, I only link to sites I really like and keep up with. Those things can take over your site if you're not careful! LOL
Posted by: Wildcat at March 29, 2005 02:41 PMI really like the Belly Brigade! So cute... btw..was able to wake up and double check shoes this morning... thank god :)
Posted by: mojavi at March 29, 2005 03:04 PMCould you add me to your blogroll?
I like the ticker. I liked it yesterday too, even before you had a fish.
Posted by: jen at March 29, 2005 03:06 PMWhoops, I'm such a retard. I didn't see it the first time. Sorry.
Posted by: jen at March 29, 2005 03:07 PMKat stole my line! So instead I'll call it "spring cleaning." I need to do the same. I like the fish counter, too.
Posted by: SpaceCase at March 29, 2005 03:32 PMThanks for adding me! You're due three days before I am. Freaky.
Posted by: Kelly at March 29, 2005 03:34 PMtee hee...
I just love ahem *our* new counter ;) ;)
Posted by: jacqueline at March 29, 2005 04:06 PMAlright, I'll play the naive guy here and ask. What, pray tell, is a pregnancy counter?
Posted by: Jeff A at March 29, 2005 04:08 PMI read your page every day even if I don't comment often(I don't have friends, having been recently ripped away from my home in California to move to Pittsburgh, PA). I am preggers, but you don't have to link me if you don't wanna. I link to you whether you like it or not!
Posted by: heels at March 29, 2005 04:32 PMyou forgot me :(

LOL - thanks for adding me to the "Belly Brigade". I loved your fish counter as soon as I saw it. And even though I have a counter, I have to agree with you that it's kind of cheesy - though it really helps me to remember what week I'm in - and boy was it ever nice to see today that I have less than 100 days to go!
Posted by: Marie at March 29, 2005 05:49 PMOOH! OOOH! MEEE!
*waves hand wildly in the air*
Er, no, I'm not technically pregnant, but our little girl is "due" any time now (as soon as the freakin' court gets its butt in gear). Plus I luv me some pregnant girls, they're all curvy and smell good and stuff.
:)
Posted by: ben at March 29, 2005 05:51 PMI am a regular visitor and just had to stop past while at home....because my office says your sight is now "TASTELESS" I read you on Friday and when I tried to read you Monday...you became so tasteless over the weekend that they blocked your site....I so rarely check my bloggers at home...I am starting to have withdrawls. Do you think they blocked you because of the pink fish counter?
Posted by: jennifer at March 29, 2005 06:52 PMI read every post, comment occasionally and I'm still not on your blogroll? How rude! ;) KIDDING!
Posted by: Mary Jo at March 29, 2005 07:12 PMThanks for keeping me around. ;-)
Posted by: keepergirl at March 29, 2005 07:22 PMI just cleaned up my list too, had a few dead links and new blog names ;)
Now I need to find some new blog blood, hehehe. Ya know, its not like I have any realy work to do ;)
Posted by: Chrissie at March 29, 2005 08:14 PMI love the pink fishy! Perfect for you (and the CactusFish-LimaBean).
Posted by: carrster at March 30, 2005 09:07 AMIt's the sex! The sex banned you. You put up the adorable pink baby counter and then the WHOLE WORLD knew you'd had sex. Rollicking, sweaty, need to order out for Chinese afterwards to stoke up for Round 2 S-E-X!!
That, or you "unblogrolled" the wrong person. Heh.
Posted by: Elizabeth at March 30, 2005 09:26 AMThanks for adding my link! I sadly can't see such things at work so didn't notice earlier. Makes me feel all warm and squishy....
Posted by: carrster at March 30, 2005 06:30 PMi am a regular reader (some say obsessive, i call it regular..whatever), sometimes commenter who has ya on my blogroll.all the linky goodness i can get is yummy. (that sentance made no sense...oy)
Posted by: colleen at March 31, 2005 06:06 PMI really am a regular reader and commenter, its just that this past week or two has been so hectic. But I don't think you have ever read my site have you? I'm offering up an open invitation anytime!
