Wacky Wednesday

Not sure why, but it seems like the weirdest day of the week is always Wednesday. This week was no different, although I am just now getting around to jotting it down. On Wednesday of this week:

* I saw a homeless guy, which is not that weird. He was sitting on a bench, with his shoes beside him, which is probably also not that weird. But, and here is the weird to me part, he was sniffing his sock. As if it might not smell as bad as the rest of him? To wake himself up? Because he liked it? Weird.

* The top news story on my home page was about pictures of Princess Kate in a bikini. The headline read "Princess Kate Bikini Pics". The jump read "And curly, too". The link led to an article that showed no pictures, and explained that her hair is normally curly, not straight. I think the copywriter must have been trying to generate interest in a story that wasn't really a story. But am I the one who is weird for thinking this article was headed in a whole different direction?

* At the top of this blog you will notice a button that says "Next Blog". If you click on it, it will take you to the, yep, you guessed it, next blog hosted by blogger and with permission to share in this way. Sometimes when I am bored, I click on it just to see where it goes. I have found a few interesting blogs this way, but mostly I find either blogs that haven't been updated in three years, family blogs, or blogs in a foreign language. After a certain point, I usually get caught in a loop of blogs that share a theme that doesn't interest me at all (cancer, religion, crafting) and I quit. Well Wednesday, as I was clicking through, I landed on a blog by a woman who has a spanking fetish. It led to another, and another, and so on. I quit after a couple of tries that led to more of exactly the same. I don't know what is weirdest about this to me - that some people actually like to be spanked just to be spanked, that there are so many blogs and sites dedicated to this topic, or how I came to land there. The feature is interesting in theory, but it doesn't seem to work in either of the ways that makes sense - either totally random, meaning one site has nothing to do with the previous site, or where one site does lead to the next one for a reason. In which case, why does my blog always lead to someone with no life, a terminal life, or a wacky sex life?
