Anyone remember the song lyric "Never want a drink of water 'til the well runs dry.."?
Here's the chorus of "You never miss a real good thing":
Sung by the incomparable Crystal Gayle.
All I wanted today was to hook up the wireless router that I got myself for my birthday.
It sat here for the 9 days I was sick, and today was to be the day I went wi-fi.
Alas, I am wanting in the geek-squad gene, apparently.
It doesn't help that the refurbished router I got didn't come with software, just a link to an "instruction site" that I can't get to work. So, after what I would call "wasting a day" on this, it still doesn't work...
I just want to be able to blog from my apartment...
If you want, you can check out my newest blog: Captured By Gravity. It came online yesterday. On that site, I will be trying to make money by blogging - ads, sponsored posts, whatever I can get. I want to keep It's A Blog Eat Blog World, home of Manic Monday, ad-free, because I want it as my own "personal space"... but I want to see if I can really make money by blogging - hence Captured By Gravity's existence.
What do you want this Manic Monday?
Here's the chorus of "You never miss a real good thing":
Never miss a real good thing
I know what it means
Never see the light of day
til it goes away
Never want a drink of water
Til the well runs dry
Never miss a real good thing
Til he says good-bye...

Honestly I don't know that song. Good luck with the new blog

smiles, bee

I thought it was simplify this year? I guess you would need a blog for ads though. I'll go check it out. Have a great MM Mo. :)
I hope the new site means that you will never want for anything. Good luck.
Good luck with your new site.
BTW...I wrote a really long post on this word and when I first saw it I thought, what the hell am I going to write about?
I LOVE Crystal Gale and I am SO excited about your new blog. It does suck about the router, though. Did you ever get it to work?
I will be checking it out...
Hey there hot stuff! I love your new blog-and the name, and the layout and the tag-it's fantastic, just like YOU!
I posted my MM early this week b/c I am anticipating being very tired tomorrow morning and as you know, I cna't post from work. So...it's up! :)
Love you!
This week I want to actually visit all the MMers and not be such a blogging putz... but I'll start with just checking out your new blog. I'm probably still linked to the one you don't have any more, so I'll have to put "update links" on the to do list soon.
You said once you only comment on posts where there is something to comment.
That's what I am doing right now, lol !
What do I want? Well, I want to dedicate this week's post to both you and Mimi and then I don't want to get yelled at for it!
Mine's lame and quick, but I'm in a hurry. At least I haven't missed on yet!
Sorry you had so much trouble with the wireless. That really sucks.
Good luck with your money blog. I hope it works out for you.
I just want to get through my fiscal year end inventory work with as few problems as possible.
Cheers and Happy MM!
If the ads end up working well for you, perhaps I'll put some on Jantrails....
Thanks for being my guinea pig! :)
Oh, and I love the name "Captured By Gravity."
'Cuz I feel that way every day! :)
Happy MM! Good luck on your new blog!
My post is here: http://blog.mysocalledsite.com/?p=270
More power to ya, Mo! We're all rooting for ya! ;)
Happy MM, everybody...
I used to work for Crystal Gayle. Ya know, she is one nice, genuine lady. I really enjoyed working for her and her hubby. Good people!
Happy MM!
I need to figure out this blogging for money thing...
Glad its you figuring out that stuff. Good luck with it. I would probably electrocute myself.
Have a good one.
Later Y'all.
Great word - great new site!
I'll check out the new blog.
I don't know about your router. Some are easy to set up and others not so, as you found out. I've been lucky. The last two I have gotten were easy to set up. Linksys or whatever they're called...suck at making their hardware easy to install and set up. I hope you didn't get one of those.
Good luck on everything you want, Mo!
Congrats on your new blog - it looks delicious! If I had money I´d buy ads every day ;-)
♥
P.S.: There should be an "answer" in your inbox :-)
I want another hour of sleep!
Hope you´ll get your wi-fi thingy fixed!
Good luck on your new blog, Not The Mama!
I remember Crystal and this song, Mo! I am also suffering comuter woes this morning. Quite the eye candy over there....
Technology...what a frustrating thing! I hope you get what you want.
Inspiration hit me upon waking this morning. Unfortunately it's a sad post. My first sad/angry post I think.
I don't remember this song and I'm a Crystal Gayle fan. Hey, did she ever cut that hair?
*sigh* Hope that you resolve that router thing.
I have that router whats the problem Mo?
Just a quick one from me this week.
:)
Great post for WANT!
I WANT you to have a great day and stop stressing. =)
My Want is up! Good luck on the new blog.
My Want is up! Good luck on the new blog.
Hi Mo! We have had a lot of router problems since we went wireless too. It burns my husband because he works in electronics. So don't feel too bad, router hook ups are a pain. Mmm, I want the snow to melt and the temperature to rise. And, I want you to have a great day! :)
Blessings,
Lorianna
Mo, I checked out your new blog which I like very much! Good luck making money with it! Glad you're keeping "It's A Blog Eat Blog World." :D Mine's up. "What Women Want in a Lover." I think you'll like it too, MO!
hope you are up and running soon! sorry to hear you were sick...
A new blog? Cool. I understand being wanting in the geek squad gene...Hope you are feeling better
I so wanted to do this one. ;-)
I have wandered here, via Sarge... pleasure.
I have been considering going wireless myself, just haven't made that final step. Too many horror storeis from friends and co-workers. I have though, managed to connect my laptop and my tower to a KVM switch as of yesterday, one now has internet connection (the laptop) and the tower doesn't, (reason for wanting to go wireless). Good luck... being a computer technician, you would think that I would have jumped on the wireless band wagon a long time ago... but the horror stories over ride that WANT.
I'll make sure to stop in to visit at your new blog.
That's a good want. Mine is up!
Yum! You've got some nice eye candy going on over there at Captured By Gravity!!
As for the WiFi, call the Tech Guys. Maybe you'll get a hot one! *wink*
