Sometimes things come together rather fortuitously on the blog.<\/p>\n

For example, although yesterday seems to have been Official Delurk Day, when we’ve done it in past <\/a>years<\/a>, it has been a week long event, so I don’t think I’m breaking any invioble rules by playing along today. (Thanks to Greeblemonkey <\/a>for the graphic!) <\/p>\n

Since blog gets in the neighbourhood of 200 to 250 visitors a day, and the average post gets between 10 and 15 comments, I can do the math without even taking off my socks and shoes to figure out that there are a few of you dropping by but never saying hello. Yes, you!!<\/p>\n

But, cuz I’m such a thoughtful and generous hostess, I’m not going to make you go to all the work of coming up with a pithy or thoughtful or insightful comment all on yer own. No, no, no. But I am going to make you work for it, and you can thank Fryman’s comment <\/a>from yesterday for inspiring me.<\/p>\n

The Player To Be Named Later is officially due three weeks from today, on February 1. Name the date and time of his arrival, and you win a prize! What prize? Erm, um, let’s see… how about a book? I’ll send you a book, of my capricious choosing, at some time within six months of baby’s arrival.<\/p>\n

The rules:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Your guess must include a day and hour.<\/li>\n
  2. The closest guess wins the prize.<\/li>\n
  3. \nAny guess between now and February 15 is fair game.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
