I Think I’ll Link You… part deux
Many of you have noticed (and mentioned) that the little tab up at the top of my page here that says “Blogroll” is pretty much empty. Non-existent. I have no blogroll.
But now that I’m in a new place and I’m kinda starting up this bloggy thing again, it’s probably time I do it right. And put in a blogroll. A real blogroll that’s really representative of what I read and who reads me.
This is where you come in. See… I’m planning to cheat. Yup. I’m a cheater-cheater-pumpkin-eater. Rather than devouring through past comments here and blog-hopping and all the stuff that’s USUALLY involved in creating a comprehensive blogroll, I’m going to just ask you to leave me a comment with your link. Now… those of you who have been around since way back in my blogspot days will have an automatic link if you were linked up there. (To peruse that ancient, way out-of-date blogroll, click here.)
Now don’t be shy. You want a link? Just ask for it. If you don’t ask for it (and you weren’t on that above-mentioned blogroll) then chances are very good that you won’t get a link. Because I’m just not that organized.
So, to lighten the mood around here, I’m throwing in an encore of what was quite possibly my favorite post from my old blog. That’s right, folks. Prepare yourselves for “I Think I’ll Link You.” I’m channeling David Cassidy now… And you KNOW how I love me some David Cassidy!
Hahahahahahahahaha
The following song is based on, nay, INSPIRED by David Cassidy’s “I Think I Love You.”
I THINK I’LL LINK YOU
(Dedicated to my blogroll-in-progress…)
Blog, blog, blog, blog,
Blog-blog, blog, blog, blog,
Blog, blog-blog, blog, blooooooggggg
I’m blogging
And right in the middle of a good post
Like all at once I read up
On someone that leaves comments on my site.
With all my heart and might I set my fingers on the keys,
I’ll try not to feel the squeeze
As I type out words like these:
“I think I’ll link you!”
This blogroll
Is getting long and lengthy
I didn’t know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I’d put limits on myself and never link another
And didn’t I go and write it
When I typed your URL.
“I think I’ll link you!”
I think I’ll link you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I’m afraid that I’m not sure of
A blogroll there’s no room for.
I think I’ll link you.
Isn’t that what blogs are made of?
Though it worries me to see
That you haven’t yet linked me!
I don’t know where to comment next.
I don’t know who to learn about.
I got so much to blog about.
Hey!!!!!!!
I think I’ll link you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I’m afraid that I’m not sure of
A blogroll there’s no room for.
I think I’ll link you.
Isn’t that what blogs are made of?
Though it worries me to see
You haven’t yet linked me!
Believe me,
You really don’t have to tag me.
I only want to read your MEME
And if you say,
“Hey, go away,” I will, but I think better still
I’d better comment and not lurk you.
Will you offer me some hope?
Of getting linked on your blogroll?
Do you think you’ll link me?
I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
Oh, I think I’ll link you.
You’re a nut. And now I’m going to have “I think I’ll link you” running though my head all day.
HAHAHA
I love you.
I’d like a link. There, I said it.

Hilarious! I’m singing “I think I’ll link you…” in my head right now! Just hope I don’t start singing it out loud!
Me! Me! I wanna be on the Brillg roll.
(And now I’ll have David Cassidy in my head all day . . . thanks for that . . .)
http://blog.annettelyon.com
Of course I want to be on your blogroll!!
How’s the unpacking coming?
I’m going to have that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day!
http://thaliaschild.blogspot.com
Oooo! Oooo! Me, me! Can I come play too please! =P Welcome back!
http://kymburleev.blogspot.com
Love to song! Does that make me pathetic?
I’d also love to be on your blogroll.
http://www.alittlechaostheory.com
Yes, Yes. Link to me please. You’re the only famous blogger that I’ve personally met and who actually knows my name.
Link me! Link me! Pretty Please! Even though I forgot what day my guest post was due and I didn’t get it emailed in time.
I’m here! Love to read you!!

Brillig, you are too funny! Seriously, a song about blogging is enough but when it’s inspired by David Cassidy…
Hey, I’m headed to Colorado this weekend. I’ll be in the northern part of the state but I promise to look south and wave, okay?
What a gal you are….. I think your idea of cheating is great…. LOL Love that David too. (((HUGS)))
http://dreamweaversweb.blogspot.com/
you are hilarious….of course I’d like to be in your blogroll. So please don’t forget me
ONLY BRILLIG could get away with a farcical David Cassidy song and a cheater-pants blogroll in one mighty swoop of the mouse! You totally crack me up. Which is why I, too, am begging to join your blogroll (even though I took a peek at an earlier version and it looked like it was well in the hundreds):
http://divergentpathways.blogspot.com/
Way, way too funny, Brillig! And yes, please link me:

Hmmm…my first comment didn’t go through!
http://iblogaboutnothing.blogspot.com/
My comments aren’t going through for some reason…
At least not when they have the link in them…
http://iblogaboutnothing.blogspot.com/
I can’t get the link to work, and my hands are full of newborn baby girl right now…so I’ll have to leave the link off for now, but I know you know where I am.
You and my husband should collaborate. He is forever parodying songs.
Ditto what Karlene said. Except my link should be

Congratulations! Your “I Think I Link You” song just knocked out the previous song running though my head -”Delilah” by Tom Jones.
I’d like a link on your blogroll please.

You’re one of my “daily” reads! I’d so love to be on your blogroll! Does it help if I tell you you’re on mine?

Oh Brilly, you are back! Rather, it looks like you have been for awhile, but I was on vacay…
I love you and your blog, and your brilliant parody abilities (reminds me of my Charlie Brown, but in a bloggy girlfriend, so EVEN better!).
Please link me.

Well, after reading through some of you posts it seems like you are a really good writer so I wanted to say two things in here 1. Keep up the great writing and I will keep on coming back and reading your stuff.
and 2.
Could you please link me I would really appreciate it and please feel free to subscribe to my site so you can keep up to date on all of my latest posts and if you find my site helpful please let me know and if you have any advice or tips for me to improve my site please feel free to share your tips with me. And if the site doesn’t pertain to you and you know someone that it might help out please share the site with them and have them pass it along to others that they might be able to help with my site.
But keep up the great writing and my last question is do you think putting a blogroll on your site has improved your traffic and just all around improvement of your site? Because after looking at your site it has interested me in maybe wanting to put one on my site but I want to know if it makes a difference in the statistics of the site?
So thanks again and I would love for you to please link me:
Thanks,
Ryan
I think I’m on it, but I don’t want to take any chances of not making the cut!
Good to see you again (relatively see you, that is)
http://www.josiskilpack.blogspot.com
I’m solid, right?
David Cassidy remakes never get old.
Noting like offering a link to get us all to come out of the woodwork.
I know I haven’t been around. Sorry, busy and all the usual excuses. But it’s great to see you back in action.
Hurray! Great to see you back - would love to be included in your blogroll - here’s my 2-way link:
http://www.mammadawg.com
The trouble is, I have a messy one on my old blog [couldn't never really figure it out] and I started one on my new blog although they were invisible on the sidebar [wordpress] Then I tried the blogrolling thing which is even more of a headache. So now I”ve more or less given up.
I need to go to blog school for beginners, forget the PhD
Cheers
thanks, song stuck in head. great.
hey, link me and i link you!
Me, me, I would love a link Brill. And yay you’ve moved at last. Hope it’s all going well. Hope the babes have enjoyed school and that you get to paint away the red soon. Big hugs and good vibes heading to your new house. Mwah.
Would it be too much to ask, my dear Brillig, to link me too?
You know I heart you, big time… plus, I’ll bet I am the only other reader who sang aloud as I read this.
GF
you are so funny. how do you manage to keep all that funny in one little body?
Glad to see you are surviving your move. How are the kids adapting? Do we get to see pics of the new house?
Don’t know you very well yet, but I did put you in my reader last week, so I don’t feel bad asking, “Please add me! :)”
http://www.halfpastkissintime.com
Dude, you’d better link me.
Did ya miss me? I missded you.
YEAH!! You’er back! And moved! I finally unpacked a few boxes left over from my move ….almost 3 yrs ago. I actually thought if I hadn’t opened them in 3 yrs maybe I didn’t need them. Had I donated those boxes I would have lost love letters Ronnie wrote me when he was in the Army (uploaded to my blog), notes we girls passed in high school and Ronnie’s gold necklace. Opps that’s where it was! I still have not found ALL of my good silverware or my high school photo album.
I hope all of your items arrived safely and you are able to unpack a lot quicker than I did.
And YES! Please include me in your blogroll
http://mommas-world.blogspot.com/
Dude! What happened to my post? Grrr. Will try again.
YEAH! Glad to hear you are back! I remember how the moving thing goes. I recently unpacked a few boxes from my move (I moved almost 3 yrs ago). At first I thought if I didn’t open them after all this time do I really need them. I am glad I opened them instead of just donating them. If I had donated them I would have lost Ronnie’s love letters to me when he was in the Army (posted on my blog now), notes we gals passed to each other in high school and Ronnie’s gold necklace. Opps! Apparently still packed in a box that I haven’t opened in the last oh 10 yrs or so from other moves. That’s where it was! I still cannot find ALL of my good silverware or my high school photo album. I have so much “stuff” that I cannot always remember what I am missing until it dawns on me to look for it.
I hope all of your items arrived safely and you unpack far better than I do.
And YES! Please include me on your blogroll.

First of all, I loved the library post. We got kicked out of the adult section within seconds of exiting the elevator at the Provo Library once, so I feel your pain. Second, Happy Birthday! And you are just a spring chicken! Get up and dance! Third, I loved that song and here’s my link http://little-but-loud.blogspot.com.
This song is brilliant. Does it mean that if you ARE on my blogroll, I can’t be on yours? *wink*
From time to time I look over this site with its well written contributions. I am pleased about the interesting contributions and would like to express my radix complement in addition! Greetings from Germany!
Phew - I’m on the old-timers’ list. Just went and checked.
And feel free to add Looking Into (alljenn.wordpress.com) as well since we have named a Challenge after ya’.
I love that song! Did you ever see the Levis commercial that used it?
http://www.flexibleparenting.com
I dunno whats happening to my sense of humor
I read the heading as I think I will LI*K YOu…yuck
sorry sorry
I’m shocked that I remembered the tune to that song.
Link me please, link me!
Free Linking! It is like the 70’s era of free love, but in the blog world.
Thanks for the free love…
