OK, so…
… are you sick of me yet? (damn, I miss my emoticons!)
I have three orders of business this morning. First, thank you to everyone who has come to take a peek at my new blog, and to those who have commented. Regarding comments, I think I’ve already discovered a BlogSpot glitch. Without any sort of rhyme or reason, a few of the comments people have posted showed up in my mailbox, but not on the blog itself. Folks, I have no clue why this happens, and if it happened to you, I’m sorry. Rest assured I have not deleted anyone’s comments.
BlogSpot indicated for commenters to sign in to some profile — Google, OpenID, what-have-you. You don’t have to do that if you don’t want to. There is an “Anonymous” option, and then all you have to do is sign your name within the comment so I know who you are.
Second, Bonnie gave me a very funny shout-out on her blog; thank you, Sis! And speaking of Bonnie… I owe her an apology. You know, I subtitled my MySpace blog “Life, Love and Spanking According to Erica,” and when I moved here, I decided to take a variation of that as my main title. I didn’t know where I came up with that, not consciously anyway. Then last night I’m reading Bonnie’s blog, and what did my eye fall upon but her blog’s subtitle: “One Woman’s Celebration of Life, Love and Spankings.”
Ooops! Did I read that at some point and then subconsciously rip it off? Ugh! I didn’t do it on purpose, I swear! I’m sorry, Bonnie. I didn’t mean to be a copycat. (hanging head in shame) But do take it as a compliment, ’cause it is. (beaming)
And third, I need to see if I can post a picture within a blog properly. Testing, one, two, three….
Yayyy! It works! I don’t have to go through all that rigmarole of posting it to Photobucket or Flickr first, then copying the URL, then pasting it, then sizing it… blech!
Happy me!
Erica Scott: Life, Love and Spanking 
Hi Erica,Apology? No way. We've both used variations of that tagline for years. I have no idea who subconsciously borrowed it from whom or whether we independently had the same good idea. Nor do I think that matters.Call this blog whatever you like!Hugs,Bonnie

Now, what could possibly be going on in that photo? It looks great, so your test worked. Now, why is that hand positioned there? Maybe he is making sure you (that is you, right?) won't lose your balance. Yeah, that's it, he's making sure you don't fall. That is very nice of him. I hope you let him have a reward afterwards, something that would brighten your bottom, I mean, his day.

Erica, I have heard other people complain about that comment glitch, but it has never happened to me personally. These things are sent to try us (possibly from the WordPress recruiting team).Hugs,Hermione

You just upset me and that is not nice. Because of you, I just spent over a hour reading Bonnie's blog. The side links areoutstanding. Now, I need to check in daily and see what Bonnie has posted. She is a pro. I hope we get to see a lot more pictures on your blog. You need to learn from Bonnie her secret of the links on the right side of her blog- have not had this much fun in a while. OH – HI Bonnie –love your blog and thanks to Erica – I found it again – it's been years. I've had a rough couple of years but doing much better now. Hal

Erica, I fell in love with you when I saw your spanking scenes in those 'Spanking Epic' movies. I can assure you I wish I could have raised those old-fashioned dressess that you wore, pulled down your old-fashioned bloomers, from your bottom, and given that voluptous bare bottoms of yours, the spanking of your life. Have a spanking good time in the future.

Hi Em — welcome! :-)John — yeah, I know, I do use those. I really like emoticons, because they help relay a mood and an inflection a lot better than just written words. And in the case of sarcastic people (sheepishly raising hand), they tend to soften the barbs a bit!
