My Blog Rating

It's official.  
My husband was right.  
And, apparently, my writing style is also that of a pre-pubescent male.  
Great.

blog readability test

Kandace  was rated a genius.  Last time I checked she had a dog with a sex addtion and a pole in her living room... how can this be?

Didn't yo mama teach you never to judge book by it's cover or a hooker by her boots?

Who's a lady got to sleep with to get a little respect around here?

Kandace... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAAA! You are so freakin' hu.lar.i.ous.

If this is the only comment I get ever again, I will die a happy woman...

If it makes you feel any better, as an editor, we are teaching journalists that their newspaper writing should always be at a 5th grade reading level. So, really you're doing fine.

I got a high school rating. And I was even a hooker in high school nor did I wear boots - it was the south - way too hot for that.

Oh, I really must go take this quiz right now. And then I think it's fair that I put it in a widget for my sidebar to warn people...or perhaps delight them. We'll have to see.

Oh, and Kandace, we all know that's not a "support" pole. Sister, just embrace it. Don't be afraid to turn the neon sign on in the front window and dance proud. I do.

Dang. I'm at junior high level too. That's why we get along so well, Tif. We're the ones in the back of the room snickering over the word "pre-pubescent".

I so have to go take the test now.

My sense of humor pretty well matches my 7 and 4 yr-old's. So I think I know where this is going.

And don't flipping tell my hubby about the pole...mmmmm,k???

Wow. How do you get a high school rating? Talk in text messaging?

Lula cannot comment right now. She's back in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

That just ain't right.

Is there stripper school? I've heard that pole is truly not as easy as it looks.

Because I am obsessive...I am constantly checking to see my blog level. It wavers between elementary and junior high. My 10 year old daughters...college (post grad). She likes remind me of this. Constantly.

Debbie said…
Tiffany...take the test again...I did it awhile back and got one answer. Then I did it again right after and got another answer...so don't worry!

Rhea said…
That's just not right. Last time I checked my rating I was the same level...surely I will rise...please god...

Oh no... I'm so scared to test mine. It will probably be "Crayon scribbled on a wall by a toddler"

Tausha said…
ok-too funny. Thats in one of the main reasons I have never taken that little test. I am too afraid of what it would say. Pathetic i know, that i would worrya about my whole exsistence as a blog depending on what some stupid test says, but sadly to say, yes, thats how it is. You still love me anyway right??

Jennifer P. said…
I'm afraid to find out. I'm sure with mentions of New Kids on the Block I'll be junior high too.

I'll love you through it :)

Hmmmm....I did it twice and got "high school" both times. I wonder if its because I like to talk about people????

This is so funny. I was highly offended when I did this on my blog about a year ago and it said high school level. I did it recently though and it came back college post graduate or something like that. Has to be random! :)

Anonymous said…
I'm thinking it's a totally random rating. I tried it on my blog, and it came back in 1 second with a high school rating. Yeah, I'm so sure they went back and read my blog in that 1 second.

Now I'm off to my mailbox to check all the spam that I'm sure is spilling out of it as we speak...

Oh, oh, I got high school status! I've moved up in the world. A few months back I was junior high, I think. So sad.

I decided to throw a surprise giveaway on my blog! Stop by if you're interested. :o)

um...don't ask my why...but my level is college-post grad.....
I'm thinking maybe they are playing a trick on everybody and it's really backwards!

Mine came back high school and then I did a post and used the word "predicament" so I though surely that would get me to a college level. No such luck.

I've done this test about three times and EVERY TIME I get elementary school level. I've decided to accept it graciously and giggle at nasty armpit noises with my 5th grader all day long.

I was extremely scared to do this but I got the same rating you did. I was pretty proud of it. I figured my misspelling was going to give me a kindergarten level.

Ummm...I teach high school. You are waaaaay better off than I am.

I am right there with you in junior high. Ah, braces and a bad perm. I feel so insecure now!

Petula said…
You are hilarious! I'm so glad I stopped by 'cause I've gotten quite a few chuckles. I guess I shouldn't tell you that when I did this -- or one similar -- some time ago, I think it rated me at college level or something. I must say I puffed my chest out for a whole week! LOL.

Blogging for Dollars?

My friend, Melissa , recently wrote this post , expressing her frustration with the small circle of bloggers who seem to be getting all the perks. I read it and left a lengthy comment, then realized I had even more to say. So, here it goes. I have been feeling some stress and increasing negativity in bloggyland lately. Unrest among the masses regarding PR, "A List" (whatever that is) Mommy Bloggers, the lack of money in blogging, etc. I've personally considered withdrawing completely and have spoken to a few other bloggers who are also feeling somewhat "disenchanted" with blogging as of late. It seems to have lost its luster. Here is how I see it: You begin blogging for fun. For connections. For camaraderie. You get a few followers and comments. You want more. You begin to see others talking about the free stroller or set of books. You want that too. Then you hear that some are getting to travel, meet with PR firms, speak at conferences. That sounds fun. You won

My Big News and a $100.

It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared! You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliency in the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son. Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that! A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm. They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking , an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids. Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys. But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview. Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I wa

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness. Having said that, let's begin. So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB. Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this . Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie. I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this. McHottie : "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly remin
