New Resource: BBWRomance

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

PPP I know I’ve been speaking about dating quite a bit lately but trust me, I’m very happy in my relationship. I will say that for those looking for a relationship, I’ve found a great resource for you. I know that a few of my visitors are larger women and of that percentage I know a few of you are still single. Today I came across a website specifically for bbw singles.

Like other sites that I’ve listed it is completely free for you to sign up to. You create a profile, list your picture and then fill out general information about yourself and the rest goes from there. I know a few people who have spent a lot of times at local BBW nights where larger women are the bells of the ball and men are falling all over them. I’m sure you’re reading this thinking “Eww” but seriously now, get a life. Big girls need love too you know?

Many men find larger women more attractive than the stick figures we’ve got walking around. Yes, I’ll be the first to admit that obesity in America is at an all time high but this doesn’t mean that a love of food and lack of exercise doesn’t mean a woman deserves a lack of love in return.

If you’re considered a BBW by any means and are looking to meet someone who loves you for YOU, all of you, then check out bbwromance.com

Where does it all come from?

A few people have asked me how I manage to maintain three blogs and never run out of anything to say. The real trick is that one, I have a creative streak going that never seems to end and two, I use not only my own resources (old entries to work off of, book topics, book ideas, music, etc) but I read other peoples blogs as well. I run a business and technology based blog on acidgloss.net. With all of the hype surrounding new technology these days it’s hard to run out of things to say there. I run my weight-loss blog over on curvy-chick.net, I’m spending every single day working on my diet from portion control to exercise so naturally I’m going to have a constant flow of topics there. Then there’s k.nu, it’s kind of my all-in-one blog. I blog about business, life, dieting, relationships and more.

If you just have one topic in your head then you can flow with it in so many different directions it’s unreal. I’m not the type of person that when something happens my first instict is to blog about it. While it may seem like it, I really don’t sit at my computer all day long, I just type very fast so it’s easy for me to get everything from my head to wordpress without wasting much time at all.

I’m still working on getting blog-ideas.net up and running, Sean has been slacking on programming the administration panel for me but he’s also working on his own stuff at the moment. I can’t interrupt his job just for a project site – you know? But the site is going to have everything from topic ideas to blog templates and even tips and tricks that have brought me to earn over $20,000 from my blog in the last year.

Keeping myself busy … without much to do.

I’ve been keeping myself busy by playing around with a few new templates for blog-ideas.net. I’m waiting, rather patiently at this point, for Sean to get started on the back end so I can launch the site. It’s been over a month, it’s basically completed and I absolutely hate being delayed!

I was considering setting up WordPressMU on the site and offering blogs to users looking to get their hands on something different. However, I doubt that would take off to where I’d like it to go. With WordPress powering their own off spring of WordPress.com, and Typekey running both Movable Type and LifeJournal – there’s really no room for a smaller site coming up for more blogs to be thrown on. The problem really is that everyone and their mother has a blog and some people like to sign up on free blog sites just to hold onto the username. I think that sucks, honestly. I’d setup rules where if you don’t post at least 3 entries within the first month – you’re booted and lose the name. I know personal issues can get in the way of some people actually using their sites but there are usernames on Livejournal that I’ve been interested in for YEARS and the owners haven’t touched their account since as early as 2001, it’s kind of unfair to the rest of the community – you know?

I also threw up a new template on curvy-chick.net, I know it’s my third one in like two weeks but I got sick of all the blue that I’m surrounded by these days. It’s bad enough I’m stuck on blue sheets until I can buy a new set for the bedroom. I don’t need it all over my websites as well. I changed it to a pink/gray format and while it looks like complete crap and will more than likely be scrapped for one of the blog-ideas.net freebie templates, at least the blue is gone. I just like using completely CSS based templates as well. Imageless is always the simplest way to go.

Cold Toes!

I rather like the feeling of being productive and while today was really no different than any other day, I accomplished more than I thought I would. I just spent the last few hours designing the templates for the administration panel on blog-ideas.net that Sean is going to code for me (functions wise). I didn’t realize how complex my ideas were but since everything is visually done for him, he basically just needs to fill in the blanks, that shouldn’t take too long for him to do at all. He’s planning on working in stages because he has another site he’s been working on for a while now, I think he’s close to completing it, if the guy he’s working for stops throwing out last minute idea’s of course.

I put up a new template on curvy-chick because the darker one that I’d put up the night before was really bothering me. I wanted something bright and simple and that’s exactly what this one is, white and blue with a hint of gray and nothing else. I also need to get my ass in gear with the templates for that site but I plan on cross-linking them to blog-ideas.net, I also intend to have AGn Designs work against that database as well. That’s another script that I may have to work on, it’s mainly more of a tracking-downloads thing though, this way I know which templates are going to be the ‘hot items’ I know for sure that the WordPress based templates will more than likely rank higher but I’m certain there are still people out there using B2, Movable Type and of course LiveJournal so naturally those should take off as well. Either way it’s just another group of things to add to the to-do list.

I woke up sweating my ass off this morning, Karen wound up turning off the A.C. before she went to work today and the room is such a heat box that it was close to impossible to get comfy. Sean said he’s just going to stay up until Karen leaves because it’s supposed to be worse today than it was yesterday. He’ll flick the switch from there, this way we’re at least comfortable. That’s about 2 1/2 hours away though, I know for sure that I won’t be able to stay up.

I’m just waiting on my toes to dry so that I can hop into bed. I only put on a base coat but then after getting involved in other things I forgot about what I started out to do. I figure it’ll be easier to just put the color on today. I’m more than likely going to be outside tanning anyway and I’m sure they’ll dry while I’m lounging, at least I’ll have good light to work off of. I just dread the humidity and that’s supposedly what we’re going to get today…oh joy!

I’ve heard that I confuse a few people when I say “today” or “tomorrow” in my posts. I stay up until about 7:30 in the morning. Right now it’s about 5:30 in the morning and I don’t feel it’s “tomorrow” until after I wake up, so while the rest of the world is working on Tuesday, I’m still convinced it’s Monday until I roll out of bed this afternoon.

Speaking of Tuesday’s, Reno 911 is out on DVD today. Sean needs to get his ass over to blockbuster to pick it up for me, MOVIE NIGHT! :w00t w00t:

In any event, the sun’s poking up so I’m going to have my last cig of the night and then get myself ready for bed. My toes are freezing but that’s because my desk is rather close to the air conditioning vent on the floor plus we also have the window one going as well. I wish I could put socks on! At least I know it’ll be warmer outside, that’s for sure.
