a little bird in the comments informs me that i got blogrolled at Stringer, and sure enough, i went over there and what did i find? a pretty nice blog from “down under” that i am blogrolling from both the otherwhirled and perpetual dawnne. thanks for coming by today, Stringer.

well, actually, thanks for coming by tomorrow, Stringer, it already being well into Wednesday in your part of the world and all….

says she: “I work for a daily newspaper here in Australia. I’m gay, left of centre, like conversation, smart women, long legs and TimTams. Smart men are good too, although I don’t really care about their long legs.”

methinks Stringer might find a friend in Cap’n Dyke.

apparently, i got jammed today.

what i mean by that is that someone named “C.J.” (hrm….i wonder what C.J. stands for….), who is “just a small town girl living in a lonely world”, over at Current Jam blogrolled me today. i went and visited C.J.’s site and found it an enjoyable read. a nice mix of commentary and music, even. Current Jam is definitely worth spreading around.

so, uh…feel free to do so!
