I just HAD to post these!!
The ones that I am guilty of are in Blue
You know you are addicted to Homeschoolblogger when:
- You can’t access HomeschoolBlogger and have a minor freakout (and email Mark) -- then get a major case of hitting “Reload” (I don't email Mark, but I do keep hitting Reload!!)
- The first thing you do everyday when you get online is check Gena’s and all your friends’ blogs--even before you check your email.
- You have put more time into HomeschoolBlogger than all your planning for homeschooling.
- You find yourself composing blog entries during church, dates with husband, movies, outings with your kids, etc.
- When you’re out you suddenly think of a witty reply to a comment someone left you a couple days ago.
- You have consoled yourself after a horrible day, thinking, “At least this will make a great HomeschoolBlogger post.”
- You find yourself hitting the “Random Blog” button in your sleep.
- You've actually started calling HomeschoolBlogger HSB.
- You consider it a great offense if someone deletes you off their friends’ list.
- You’re jealous of people who have more friends and or comments than you and find that you must repent. (Not the friends part, just comments!!)
- You have written a really great, solid post--only to be disappointed by the lack of comments.
- You find yourself retelling some of JenIg’s postings to your family and friends.
- Instead of doing the research on your own, you post difficult questions about homeschooling on your HSB.
- You’re guilty of commenting excessively to get more traffic to your blog. (Hmmm...do we HSBers really do that?? Who’s the highest commenter?? 3FoldChord)
- You’ve deleted a post a few minutes (or hours) after you’ve written it, because it seemed lame in retrospect.
- You're depressed about the look of your blog and counsel with SpunkyHomeschool.
- You have written posts to notify people that you are going to sleep ... or that you are still in your pjs.
- When your family asks you what’s new, you get upset because you already wrote about it on your HSB and they didn’t check it.
- You've added someone to your friends list just because you like their HSB avatar.
- You have more friends on HSB than you do in real life.
- You talk about your HSB friends to your real friends like they’re a part of the group.
- You can’t seem to call your HSB friends by their “real” names--only their blog names will do.
- You are guilty of traveling more than an hour to meet someone from HSB. (Extra points for traveling five hours or more.) (Not yet!!)
- You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are HSB addicts.
I am doing the last thing on the list. I hope you enjoyed them!!
I am PROUD to be a HSB Addict!! I have so many friends that God has blessed me with by coming here!!
I can't wait to get our next edition of TOS Mag.!! I heard that Coie and Ryann both are featured!! YAY!!

My daughter just found your site today through Coie's blog and I about died when I read this post! Funny thing is, just this week I posted something similar on my blog but I couldn't find any more "you know your a blogger when" jokes to add. Now I see I should have searched for "you know your a HOMESCHOOL BLOGGER" instead! I think I'll have to link this to my post as an update! How fun
And a PS. My husband is a huge Smallville Fan, I think he'll be stopping by your blog too!

I am guilty of a whole lot of those! I would even have to highlight "You are guilty of traveling more than an hour to meet someone from HSB" I've done that more than once!
