Once every 50 years, a great gray moon with geese flying underneath appears in the sky of the blogiverse.  Actually, it’s a bottle of Grey Goose vodka, but when you hold it up to the sky and squint hard, it’s a big moon in the sky.  It’s when this great distillation in the sky appears that internet-crossed blog lovers find one another.

You will know you have found your internet-crossed blog lover when they delight you every day with bubbles of laughter that rise to the top and fill your brain with thoughts of peace, love and material you want to steal for your own blog.

Dear reader, I have seen the great gray moon in the sky and found an internet-crossed blog lover.

And you can find one, too.

The first step in finding such an internet blog lover is to look for pithy, hilarious comments in your own blog.  Click through to their blog and, if you’re lucky, you’ll think of an equally impressive and pithy comment for their blog to woo them with.  Purple love rays will shoot from your computer to theirs and theirs to yours, and love ensues.  And you know what else is great about this? You don’t even have to worry about sexually transmitted diseases because there’s Norton to take care of that.

You’ll know it is true internet love when you find yourself wanting to steal sentences out of their blog post. Every. Single. Day. You jot these sentences down in your book of Damn, Why Didn’t I Think of That. (what? don’t you have one too?)  And then you wait patiently, oh so patiently for enough time to pass that you can work in the ripped-off sentence without anyone noticing.

Eventually though, if this is your everlasting blog mate, honesty will prevail and you will flat out admit to your internet lover when you are going to steal their sentences.

Another important step in wooing your internet blog lover is to stalk their Twitter page and run off anyone who tweets as if they are trying to become your lover’s #1 Twitterho.  Don’t be afraid to start a fight on Twitter and defend your #1 Twitterho status.  This is internet blog love we’re talking about, people, and what’s more real than that?

And let’s not forget the wooing power of StumbleUpon  Since you want to stumble practically every post your internet blog lover writes, you must count the number of Stumbles in between because SU discriminates against internet blog lovers and will try to separate your love if you Stumble too many times in a row. I don’t know why SU hates internet lovers like they do, but whatever.

One final way to woo your internet lover?  Give them an award they very much deserve.

Today, I’m awarding Marinka from Motherhood in NYC the December ROFL award for her post Tips for Holiday Hair. And Life, in General.

If you haven’t read Marinka from any of my previous love-filled links, what the hell is wrong with you?  Go read her.  But think twice before you try to become her #1 Twitterho.
