They Like Me. They Really Like Me.
Is it the height of tackiness to talk about your blog's advertising in a blog post? Well if so, I'm getting ready to be really tacky. So if this offends you in any way, please stop reading.
. . . . .
Okay, so I went to my mailbox the other day and saw an e-mail from Text-Link-Ads.com, the company that handles sales for my blog's text ads. I get e-mail from them often, and usually, it's a notification about a new ad request that requires my approval. And this e-mail, on that day, was no different. At least, it didn't seem different...
I went to my admin area of the site, logged in, and clicked on my "Approve New Ads" link. When I arrived at the page, I saw one word there, to identify latest request: Prada. "Wait.....WAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT? PRADA!!!????? Am I dreaming? Is it a site that sells Prada knock-off purses or something, because if it is, no way am I going to be involved with that", I thought to myself. But, not only was it not a knock-off site, the site requesting to advertise their Prada merchandise on my crazy little blog was Saks Fifth Avenue. On my site. Mine. For a moment, I felt like I was starring in an episode of Sex and the City or something. And I was Carrie. It felt kind of like that.

Prada?! Wow, you've really made it to the pinnacle of blogdom.
