Katie's Blog: I'm Just Sayin . . .: Blogging Pet Peeve

Quotes I Live By

“There are cycles of good and bad times, ups and downs, periods of joy and sadness, and times of plenty as well as scarcity. When our lives turn in an unanticipated and undesirable direction, sometimes we experience stress and anxiety. One of the challenges of this mortal experience is to not allow the stresses and strains of life to get the better of us—to endure the varied seasons of life while remaining positive, even optimistic. Perhaps when difficulties and challenges strike, we should have these hopeful words of Robert Browning etched in our minds: 'The best is yet to be'"--L. Tom Perry

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. If you do your best, it will all work out. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us . . . If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."
--President Gordon B. Hinckley

"God the Eternal Father did not give [the] first great commandment because He needs us to love Him. His power and glory are not diminished should we disregard, deny or even defile His name. His influence and dominion extend through time and space independent of our acceptance, approval or admiration. . . No, God does not need us to love Him. But oh, how we need to love God! . . . For what we love determines what we seek. What we seek determines what we think and do. What we think and do determines who are--and who we will become." --President Uchtdorf

Blogging Pet Peeve

I like to comment and read other peoples blogs. It's kind of an addiction, and I'm fully aware of that.

However, if there is one thing that will keep me away from someones blog is when they don't have comment boxes as pop-ups. For some reason it just absolutely drives me insane when the comment page is embedded into the post. It just makes it so inconvinient when I'm reading several posts on one blog, and I keep having to click back to the main page of the blog.

So if you are reading this, and you are guilty of having your comments like this . . . Please, please change. Chances are, if I enjoy reading your blog, I'll have mentioned it. But if it's slipped my mind, give me an early birthday (super early. My birthday isn't till November), and change it. I will forever love you (well kind of).

Thanks! (and if for some reason you are a super attached to the way your comment are, just ignore me and I'll try and suck it up. I suppose I should learn not everything goes my way.)

Kristina P. said...: I don't mind if it's the popup box, or it takes you to the next page of just comments.

But those ones at the bottom that are embedded make me angry because there's some type of glitch that makes it so you have to click the publish button like 4 times.; January 22, 2010 at 5:44 PM
Tasha said...: I changed mine just for you ;]; January 22, 2010 at 6:13 PM
Jules AF said...: I agree. And I didn't know that was happening to every else! The whole clicking the publish button 80 times. THAT'S SO ANNOYING.; January 22, 2010 at 6:22 PM
AJ and Cindy said...: how did you get that cool handwriting and your little name looking so cute? I want to do that!

April said...: Okay, okay. I changed it just for you. I LIKE the idea of a pop-up box...but mine all pop up in a new tab. and I HATE that!! I hate the full page idea too..it's so annoying because I CANT see the post to comment on it.

But that stupid glitch really is annoying. Sometimes I hate blogger.; January 22, 2010 at 9:05 PM
Babzanne Barker said...: I agree with Cindy--your name is so cute! And I like the way the heading looks. Even though I didn't really understand what you were trying to say in this blog it was still fun to read! hahaha; January 22, 2010 at 10:51 PM
saltymiscreant said...: I don't know how to change mine...do I even need to?; January 23, 2010 at 1:32 AM
Vanessa said...: I'm a fan of the pop up comment thing. It is easier if it is a long post and I can't remember what all I wanted to comment on, I can look at what I want while writing the comment.

I have mine like that so no worries! 8); January 23, 2010 at 8:06 AM
