Lovable daddy

Yes, I'm still alive, for those of you who've been wondering.

I have a bad case of the blogging blahs. Blogging blechs. Whatever. You know what I mean (I hope).

But, during times of blogging darkness, a light shines through. And if it's a sweet, humorous light that makes itself felt, then so much the better.

Like DaddyPapersufer. This old git Englishman is so sweet and funny. His blog is on hold (as of this writing) because its bandwidth has been exceeded. Nevertheless, he was helpful enough to share a blogging tip, one that involved dictionaries and his life-changing experience with phone directories, but I told him I thought I'd like to post something about him.

He's a clever, funny blogger who has just celebrated his six-month blog anniversary. When the blog bandwidth issues get resolved, I hope you hie on over there and read his posts. He and the Terrible Goddess (aka, Lo, the TG) always brighten my day. But be warned! You never know when his posts are 100% truthful (he does have a propensity for intertwining fact and fiction). Though you can usually tell when he's indulging in a bit of fantasy (like when he talks about walking his llama Gertrude -- who's male). In any case, his blog is like getting a bright, refreshing dose of neutrinos.

He's like my honorary daddy (in the virtual way, because I could never pass off as his biological daughter). I enjoy his sense of humor. HUMOUR, that's how he'd spell it.

Plus, rumor has it he sired this adorable specimen of manhood (one of two, the other being Tiggz).


Lovely grin Penfold is wearing there. (Nursemyra, let me know how the phallomancy studies work out when you get Penfold as a research subject.)

  15. Holy schmoley Lizza! I'm blushing up as I type. Thank you loverly lady for your compliments - I'm very flattered - you are gorgeous (did I mention the looking really hot in specs thing? I think I did...).

    As for hiring me out, well obviously my beloved Nursie would never have to pay for such 'research' and DP has got a blinkin' nerve suggesting such a thing. Might have to get my Mum to chastise him a tad...

  16. Natalie: Thanks. Maybe the muses went shopping and didn't tell us.

    Paula: That is so kind of you. You do know what you might be getting into, don't you? ;-) Hey, maybe Gertrude and Sammy will get along nicely. Doesn't matter that Sammy's real and Gertrude isn't. :-D

    Photo: You're so sweet. Thanks!

    Dragon: That goes for you too! Thank you, my dear pal.

    Kyels: Thanks!

    Sidney: That I am. I'm up to date on your blog, though. Love the photos, as usual. Will make my presence there felt soon.

    DaddyP: You have to share the profits with Penfold, you know. Warm hugs and kisses to you too, daddypoo.

    Nursie: You get him for free!

    Iz: Thank you! I'm not stopping, and I didn't stop visiting other blogs either.

    Odat: Must be something in the air, haha. Glad to see you here again, peaceful one.

    Yum? Tee hee.

    Bond: THANK YOU! ;-)

    Tammie Jean: I hope you do, and I hope his site goes back online soon.

    Penfold: You're welcome. And yes, I think you mentioned the specs once or twice.

    Ooo, someone's going to get his shins kicked again!

  17. Why does everyone always end up trying to kick my shins?
    What is the common denominator I wonder?

  18. It's a shame my blog is ill today - one of God's little custard pies - oh well.
    Warm hugs and kisses - fantastic!

    ReplyDelete
  19. I hope everything gets fixed soon, DaddyP. Depriving blogworld of your genius(?) is cruel and unusual punishment.

    Yep, warm hugs and kisses to you.

  20. I don't do the reader thing. I enjoy clicking on my bookmarks and seeing a shiny new post.

    ReplyDelete
  21. That's fun too. I still do that sometimes.

    ReplyDelete
  22. That's no grin, it's a gurn.

    Promise.

    They have competitions.

    Seriously.

    Puss

  23. Yep, the DaddyP avatar is wearing a gurn (I had to google that term, haha).

    But...

    Penfold the surfer is wearing a grin, isn't he? That don't look like no gurn.

Say what you mean and mean what you say...oh, heck. Just say something. :-)

Sorry about comment moderation in the interim; bastard spammers are at it again. *sigh*
