Blog Announcements and Carnivals
I’ve got a slight case of blogger’s block (similar to writer’s block) so I thought it would be a good time to do a few announcements and recaps :) The first major announcement is that I stepped down from the M-Network this month. M-Network is very active, and with me taking organic chemistry part 2 next semester I just can’t keep up. It isn’t really fair to candidates waiting in the wings for me to occupy the place since the network is limited to 10 blogs. I feel very sad to have to do this, and hope to rejoin as an active member again someday … when I am not taking the brain-draining chemistry classes. Which might be a few years (or five…). When I stepped down, my credit card debating buddy Patrick from Cash Money Life got the nod to join.
Speaking of credit card debates… I have been challenged once again! Madison from My Dollar Plan is a self-described credit card “junkie” who loves her credit cards…and has HOW MANY??? Y’all will just have to hear it from the horse’s mouth because I cannot get my fingers to type that number. We’re planning to start the debate on January 4th, 2008 so mark your calendars and be sure to be subscribed to both blog feeds (or by email) because this *will* get interesting LOL Other bloggers are welcome to contribute both in the comments and on their own blogs, with the only rule being to keep it civil, because it is a friendly debate.
Finally, with the semester break and no holiday travel plans, I had the opportunity to participate in a couple of blog carnivals again. Of course y’all just knew I’d have to contribute to my favorite, the Carnival of Debt Reduction. I have absolutely no idea what mbhunter was going on about with the blue and orange bit…especially since my Steelers’ colors are black and gold. For the record, the CoDR post (You CAN Get Out of Debt) is now my most-commented post on this blog… and more comments still trickle in. Also, my submission to the Carnival of Personal Finance was chosen as an editor’s pick over at the Digerati Life, I am honored, SVB!
