Almost a year ago, I started this little blog with big ideas and big dreams.
I wanted to be the next Dooce or Pioneer Woman.
Who doesn’t?
It’s been reported that some big name blogs make $40,000 per month in advertising. Yeah, I’d take it.
Me? I’m bringing in a cool $28.
You see, there’s a big difference in these gals and me.
Them: Work really hard, write quality posts, network, pay their dues, write books, get paid big money.
Me: Write some crap, hope you show up, expect to get paid big money.
I know I should be out there pimping my blog to every mommylogic/humorblogger/twitter/facebook site there is but I am too overwhelmed to do so.
Being a pimp is hard work. I should’ve been a hooker so I could just lay there and still get paid.
I’m lazy like that.

Some tool in the Wall Street Journal today claims some bloggers make $75K per year blogging. Wish I was one of them!

Hahaha! My husband just asked me last night when I was going to start making big money doing this, cause obviously I’m doing this so HE can quit HIS job. Lovely!
I’m new to reading your blog but I would beg differ on the “crap” you post. I’m hooked!

$40k per month?! Wowza! I had no idea.
I do think everyone has aspirations to be “Famous” in the blogging world… but really? It’s just too much work for most “normal” people!

OK…you just won me over! What a good looking blog…as long as you look the part, I won’t tell anyone you are pulling down the $28. (fwiw, I’m pulling down about $30…but that’ll be our little secret)
