Going to a House Party Tonight

We just RSVP’d for a house party tonight and are looking forward to it.  I am not sure we are going to know anyone there, but that could be the fun part!

The good news is it is down here on the South Side of town, so we don’t have to travel so far.

We will let you know how it goes!!!

Kinky Impromtu Weekend Fun

This weekend Mr. Kinky and I went to eat dinner at a sushi restaurant of Westheimer.  We had talked about possibly heading out to the club afterwards so I put on a sexy short skirt and one of my favorite shirts with a very low cut neck.

When we got to the sushi restaurant we decided to eat at the sushi bar.  We like doing this because it is fun to meet some of the other patrons.  We happened to sit down next to a younger couple (mid-thirties) who were pretty cute.

Within seconds of sitting down the young man (Eric) was staring down the front of my shirt and we were all having a great time.  We soon learned that Eric and Lisa (the woman) were not together romantically, but were just really good friends…..thus the reason I guess it was OK that Eric was so blatantly looking down my shirt.

The Crappy Part of Running a Website

Sometimes it sucks being a webmaster!  My least favorite thing of everything running a successful website involves, is link building and link exchanges.  The whole process is quite absurd as you kindly ask people in your niche to link to your site in return for linking to theirs.  At the end of the day the only people that gain an advantage from such a system are the scammers and spammers who spend hours and use software to build an artificial presence on the web.

The reason I am rambling on about this is I just did some cleaning on our links page.  Basically I removed a bunch of sites that we had linked to hoping to get a little link love in return.  After several months if they have not linked back and don’t really have anything to offer our readers I clean them off the list.

Sometimes it feels good to do this.  We put our heart and soul into our website and make our site always about content first instead of just trying to make money.  So we tend to take it personal when we find websites in our swinger niche that ignore our requests for a link exchange.  It makes me wonder if they think our website sucks, or what issues they have with us. 

I can understand if it was a blog about jewelry, movies, or even a purely sexual blog.  But why would a blog about swinging not think our blog is a good fit?  We will give anyone the benefit of the doubt often linking to brand new swingers blog before they even have any readers (Trust me…most webmaster don’t do this)

Gentle Nibbles currently has over thirty thousand hits a month, over 200 readers, and we think it is full of terrific content, so it just confounds me when our blog is not good enough for a link on another blog or website specifically in the swinging niche.  In these cases it kind of feels good to hit the delete button on a link to a blog or website that we feel is taking advantage of all our free unreciprocated traffic.

OK So that was awful harsh and we are not really that pissy but there is atleast a couple of ounces of truth in the words above!
