After A Blog Hop Over To Mamamontezz's Place
What is it called when you go to a familiar blog and then click on a blog they link to and then go to that blog and click on a blog they link to? Do we have a name for that? And do we have some sort of Six Degrees of Separation law for this sort of behavior, so that if I click on enough links at enough blog sites I will eventually end up back home? In any event, after clicking from one link to another to another this morning, I eventually ended up at Mamamontezz's blog, where I had a nice look around. I haven't found too many of us over the age of 35 in blogdom, so it was fun to know I'm not the only one who personally remembers certain hisorical events that are ancient history to most bloggers. She does refer to herself as middle-aged in one post, though. I've never been able to figure out exactly when someone is middle-aged. I think it's like being old. The closer to it you become, the farther away you make it look in order to appease your sense of impending doom. Mamamontezz says she's a Hoosier. Maybe Hoosiers are more keenly aware of chronogical age than the rest of us, or perhaps they're just more inclined to be matter-of-fact about the number of years they've been here. Maybe we should should have two ages--a chronological one and one that tells how old we are in Blog Years.
