Because I don't say this enough - The queen is most appreciative of any and all who comment here - like a kid on Christmas morning, each comment is like a little gift to me - I appreciate all who take the time to type a few lines now and then - (even mumsy, who is still an old biddy...but we already know this.)
While some of you are new, and some of you are lurkers, and some of you are regular "glowers" as slac, would say - all are welcomed and appreciated -
- I try to return the favors by visiting your site in return...
To the many new faces who forego posting an actual link back to your journal I would like to make one small suggestion: - (because this queen is old and likes her shortcuts):
How about posting your link to your journal in your profile area - then, I or anyone else can just click on your name and pop in to see you that way.
click - settings - about me - my profile- create/edit my profile - you can add it in under any heading..
Really, it is that simple. Now, aren't you glad I'm lazy?

Thank you dear queen...I've never even clicked on settings before!!! I am so lame....
Well who would have thought to do that?

I posted my journal link in my profile a long time ago. I wish everyone would do the same! Makes finding folks a whole lot easier.
Love ya girlfriend!

Woo hoo!! See... THIS is why I like you, we think alike! Check out this entry of mine from last December - http://journals.aol.com/diannevan/MTHeadedRambling/entries/309
I said the exact same thing!!
Blammo, you gave me such a good idea. (Yes, my link is in my profile. I had no idea anyone ever looked at those. do they really?) But I love how you linked to yourself here. (I'm a good girl, I am; I press the blue text!) Here I've spent months pouting that no one will read a damned sidebar... crud. I'll just make people click. Watch me. I'll do it. The d. queen (as opposed to Pointless, to whom I totally, and utterly, and gladly, and respectfully bow down) has spoke!
Where to grog? with greg? 345 Stagecoach Road.
roger, copy that, you old biddy.
Flora I'm LMAO! Because I was just about to post something regarding people adding links in thier profiles too. LOL! Kind of drives me a little nuts when I click and there's nothing there. And Oooooo! I am SO telling Mumsy you called her an old biddy! LOL!
I'm lazy too ... I THINK I put the link in my profile. I THINK. Damn, does that mean I actually have to stop and check it out?!
Monica, yet another old biddy.
Yes! Yes! But i am Widely lazy!
Quote me but don't Denote me~~
my pages go practically No=where...
or, as i also say,"ASK anybody."
lol such a great observation and way to put it. :)
I also think to ask people to please put their journal links in their profile. That makes it remarkably easier to find their journal and return comments. Another shortcut I've found is by clicking on the keyword button and writing the user's screen name in as a keyword. This usually opens a search page with their journal listed right at the top. No more going to hometown and doing a search from there. But still... profiles would be best. I also wish AOL would allow us to set up our options to automatically leave a working link back to our journals when we leave comments. That would help too. :)
I admit it, I'm a lurker. And I'd have to figure out what and where my profile is to do ANYTHING to it (I'm just sooooo computer savvy)!

heh stay coO floralilai !!!
Hmm, its Sunday, but the screen says Thursday ... perhaps the Queen is in a tad bad mood? Just throw the D* chicken at her and have out with it *evil grimace!* No, no ... we'd never do anything to tick a near Holy person. Just wouldn't do... BTW - my wings and halo near ready?
I put my journal link in my profile from day one, just seems easier that way. I hope that helps, but you have me in your side links too!
Love, Penny
I did it a while ago when one of the journals I visited complained I didn't leave a link. Oops, on my part...hehe, so finally I added to my profile.
This is a really helpful entry for people to do. -=)
Yes'm, profiles are there for a reason. Hear ye, one and all, the queen of J land has spoken!
OH NO.....that whole profile link thingy sounds like oh so much work. LOL
I guess I'll have to try and digest it later, when I'm not acutally eating and typing one handed.
