Lilies! As always, Brad, they are a delightful shock when we see them in late summer. Thanks. 🙂
Also a surprise? Since the virus debacle, our readership has plummeted. We now have about four readers, so I’m going to guess it’s Brad, Peggy, Kristi and me. (Lloyd never reads this.) So, say what you want, guys! We’re all alone in our own little club!
You must have five readers at least cos Im still here like a bad smell.
(see if that particular Australianism translates well over there)
I’m still here too! I’ve started reading via Google reader on my phone, since I’m too lazy to sit down at a computer. My phone browser is slower than natural death (thank you Blackberry), so I don’t comment much.
If Nigel and I are also in the little club like a bad smell, does that make us the silent but deadly fart no one owns up to?
Hi Nigel! *wave
Silent but deadly fart explains so much about my life.
*Waves back!
Since it’s just us reading now, I’m going to say something shocking:
I don’t really like potato chips.
Ha! It feels so good to say it out loud!
I’m here too! I come to it on my Xoom.
I smell like refeies beans this morning. Fresh ones, though. Not the day after, if you know what I mean!
No, no, I read your posts all the time! Don’t despair. I just don’t post any replies, because they show up in the weirdest places.
I’m here too!
I’m going to follow suit with Brad and fess up…
I don’t really like chocolate. It makes me seem very, very strange. I know.
But don’t you like being strange?
I wouldn’t call you strange for not liking chocolate. I would call you insane. Out of your mind. Loco. Loony….and so on.
Every day reader here. I will not be deterred.
Same here, and ahead of Mom!
What kind of lilies are those? Beautiful!! I am envious.
They are called surprise lilies or Lycoris squamigera. They are really easy to grow in zones 5 to 11. Leaves come out in late winter and stay around until June. Then they die. Then, SURPRISE! Lilies come up in August. Sometimes they are also called “naked ladies”, which makes me giggle. I must confess that I didn’t plant them. The previous owner did. I did bring a bulb home and plant it in Baltimore, so I know they grow here too.
Well, there goes my entire post for tomorrow.
naked ladies?
I’m still here too–lurking via Google Reader when I’m supposed to be doing something to earn my paycheck. Meh. On to more important things: what kind of lilies are they? I think I need some!
Still here too!
Hey! I wrote about those very same lilies but am posting it tomorrow. You beat me to the punch, but I should not be “surprised.”
Confession: Remember those postcard chain letters that you received when you were growing up? Well, I broke the chain. Your name was on the list, but I never sent you the postcard. That’s why you only received 35 postcards instead of 36. Sorry.
Oh how I would love to be surprised by any kind of flower at any time of the summer! Those are quite beautiful indeed!
And oooo….I always wanted to be part of an exclusive club. Is a confession the initiation. Ok….well….dang…I think I’ve already confessed everything odd about me.
I’m here. Count me in your ‘circle of trust’.
I’m here too! I’ve been reading all summer off and on, but am most faithful when school is in session. I have lunch with you every day.
My secret: I LOVE both chocolate and potato chips!
Hello there Lloyd and Lauren, I’ve been reading for a while, but never got to say hello before, so hello!
Hello Candice.
I am stalking you. You just don’t know it. Everyday I am here creeping up on you reading about your daily lives. Hee hee hee!! I just don’t post. I’m strange like that!
Aw….. you guys. I feel like Sally Field. 🙂
What, you got a virus? When did that happen? Sorry when to catch up on your posts I read them backwards.
Well, not exactly a virus. I’m learning more about this as the days go by. It turns out that one of the image processing libraries (collection of programs) that our theme uses had some recently discovered security problems. They were recently discovered, and recently exploited.
I originally thought the problem was with the WordPress installation, but it’s not, so you other wordpress people out there don’t have anything to worry about (well, unless you have a theme that uses this library). The name of the library is TimThumb, and chances are really pretty good that you are not using it.
Anyway, it turns out that you can exploit that library to modify other parts of a website.
Your big computery words make my brain hurt.
I still check your site out.
My secret, I can’t read so I just look at the pictures and make up a post in my mind.
