Random Friday – Lets Be Friends awwww

 

I’ve noticed recently that I’m in a blog reading rut.  One of my favorite things about blogging is connecting with other bloggers and reading their blogs.  My other favorite thing is discovering new-to-me blogs and that’s something I’ve been sorely lacking in these days.  I love my tried and true favorites, but I’m in the mood for something new too.  I could do some random clicking in my bloggy friends sidebars, but I thought it would be fun to have a little blog follow challenge here.  I’ll post 5 random blogs from my blog list and I encourage you to visit them and tell them Fiction Vixen sent you.  Also, leave at least two blog links in the comments here and I’ll do my best to visit them and tell them you sent me.  Hopefully we’ll all discover a few new blogs to follow. Here are my 5 random blogs selected from my reader:

 

So let’s get to the randomness shall we?  Let’s see now…how about a random confession?  Ok.

Sometimes, if I’m getting a little bored with my e-book, I do a search on a dirty word to see how far I’ll have to read to get to the naughty part.  There, I said it.  I feel a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders.  Now you go.  Go ahead, confess something, I dare you.  I double dog dare you!!

Moving on to even more randomness

Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares has ruined eating out for me. Just sayin’.

I’ve been reading really dirty cowboy romances in my spare time and whooo – doggy, I am addicted.  Lorelei James knows how to write dirty-sexy-cowboys.  Again, just sayin’.

Current Fiction Vixen Giveaways:

RITA Nominees (3 sets of 6 Books!)
Ends July 23
Money, Honey by Susan Sey
Ends July 23

And what else?  I know!  I’ve linked this blog before, and it pretty well known, but it’s worth mentioning again for those that don’t know.  One of my all time favorite time wasting blogs is Accidental Dong.  You must go look.  It fascinates me.

Swing by Awkward Family Photos.  Again, another well known blog but still worth a visit if you haven’t been by in a long time.  A bit of interesting [or not] info:  I submitted a photo of my hubby sitting on a canon in front of the Tower Of London pretending it was his big wiener to awkward family photos and it got picked to be in their AFP Book.  However, we didn’t make the final cut, dammit.  But they did write and say if they get a second book, our photo will be in it.  I’m so proud.  :)

That’s it for me this week folks.  Have a wonderful weekend!  Now, go forth, make friends, comment, follow and tell them I sent you.  And don’t forget to leave me a couple of links in the comments so I can go forth as well.

  2. You search for the dirty words! You're too funny. I can't think of any real confession right now, but when I do, you'll be the first to know.
    Funny post FV- as usual!
    Happy Weekend

    I asked my husband to randomly pick 3 blogs from my 'follow' list. He picked: Smexy Books, Wicked Little Pixie and (wait for it) Fiction Vixen. I didn't tell him why he was picking…lol

  3. I love meeting new bloggers too and sometimes participate in a bloghop. I was so surprised to find many more european bloggers. I thought I was one of few LOL OOhhh you're reading Lorelei James Rough Rider series…haz Pearl got to you?? I know she pimped this series to me and hellooooo…a whole new series to buy and read LOL Have a great friday FV :)

  4. Monroe–So sorry about the Dong!! Even their blog says totally safe for work! You just don't want anyone to know you're looking at accidental dongs hehe.

    Yes Julie, I search dirty words and now you will too I guarantee it. It gets me through the day. HA! Thanks for the blog recs, I've got those three covered already except that Fiction Vixen blog is a bit flat. hehe :)

    Leontine–YES I'm reading Lorelei James and omg. Wow. Yes, Pearl got to me as well and as a ton of other LJ fans. I have pimped the series to Mandi and I will make sure I bring everyone else I know to the rodeo. hehe

  5. You can do random naughty keyword search on Kindle books?! Sooooooo doing that this weekend.

  6. KC, you really are missing out on the fully Kindle experience. LOL

  7. Great post! LOL Hope the pic gets in the next book!

    Random confession? Erm… probably that I will be searching and Google will be totally embarrassed (or I will…. we shall see). :D

  8. Girl you kill me!! Great post!!!
    I hope you have a great weekend with your dirty word search!!! LOL!!!!

  9. Sometimes, if I’m getting a little bored with my e-book

    What is this thing that you speak of – I know not what it is..

    I love new blogger as well – what works for me is blog hopping outside of the book world..

    As I do loads of other stuff like Calligraphy, cooking, a little gardening, some scrapbooking -I love jumping arond on the net to see whats out their..

    When I get back to book land it just feels right…

    Dirty Cowboy – Ahhhh, lads in tight jeans, knows how a ride a horse as well as a woman and have a whole lot of moves on them…

    Them lot – I know them…very well…

    Have a great weekend..

    E.H>

  10. I am going to remember that "trick" next time I'm reading an eBook and waiting anxiously for a *ahem* scene.

  11. I do the dirty word search all the time. In fact sometimes instead of bookmarking something I just type in the two or three dirty words in the sentence of the part I want to get to, and boom – I am right where I need to be.

    I have a blog addiction and my daily blog mix is all very random. I love http://www.younghouselove.com. I can't get enough of this site. I love http://www.beekman1802.com with my fabulous boys. I also love http://www.jessewave.com. I get some of the best recommendations from there. And then I love http://www.eatliverun.com because she is so spastic that reading her blog makes me feel better about myself.

  12. Fun random stuff. Accidental dong cracks me up.

    I can't imagine I have any blogs in my reader that would be new to you – no, I'm not saying you get around O.O

    So, instead I'll give you sexy or just plain dirty tweeps: @awkward_boners, @GaryJBusey, and @VikingGodEric and @Godric_Maker get into some pretty steamy tweets (and I need google translate to get some of them)

    Enjoy!

  13. Great post with great links! How cool that there's a chance for your hubby's big wiener pic to get published in a book! :)
    I'm so glad you're enjoying Lorelei's dirty sexy cowboys! She introduced me to the genre of erotic romance when I accidentally stumbled on one of her RR books. It changed my life, lol!
    Hope you're having a wonderful weekend! :D

  14. I do that toooo! One thing about the Kindle is that I can'e peek ahead to see when the nakey time is coming. So one day I realized I can put in naughty words and it will tell me how long I have to wait. It was a good day.
