Google It

Norma posted about this Monday. I love to check my Typepad stats to see how people got to my blog. The Google search strings are sometimes especially funny. After she wrote about this, I, being the completely original blogger that I am, went right off to check mine. Here for your amusement are some of the more recent funnier ones.

“be nice, things could be worse”   I was #11 for that one. That might have to be my new motto.

“bodily damage doctor”  I can only hope that this one refers to my hand injury in March. I was #1 for this.

“nifty knitter”  This one may not seem all that interesting, but it is a recurring search, which I find rather funny for some reason.

And my favorite:

“knit bandages for the lepers”  I am # 7 for this, no lie, and more than one person has gotten to my blog with this one. I’ve never knit bandages of any kind, much less for lepers, though it appears that someone once mentioned it in my comments. I would think that buying them at the drugstore would be cheaper, faster, and more sanitary, but that’s just the doctor in me talking.

There will be vacation pictures soon, I promise. Yesterday was the re-entry day: laundry, the mountain of mail, cleaning up cat hairballs, etc. Plus my brain hasn’t quite figured out the time change yet; from experience, it will be several days before that happens!

  1. LOL! Well, I hope those lepers are at least grateful! Maybe we could all retire and knit bandages for lepers. An alpaca bandage here, a cashmere bandage there…. sounds like fun to me!

  2. Welcome back Lorette and thanks for your support even while on vacation! Wow 🙂
    I said the same exact thing about the knitted bandages! Besides the eeewwww factor (I’m guessing knitted ones get re-used…EWWWW) what a spetacular waste of time!! What, no knitted loincloths for the Lepers too? 🙂

  3. Enjoyed reading your blog. Great combination of likes and dislikes!
    The other interesting knit items that knitters talk about all the time are baby “soakers.” Can you imagine anything wool soaking up liquid. Guess that’s all there used to be.
    Have a great holiday season.
