PiB's Awesome Email Plan!

PiB is brilliant!  If you've been following the comment section on her last Sammy entry you know about her canny plan to add us to the email feed so we know when a comment has been made!  You're all welcome to add me to your blogs as an email buddy.  If I get the okay from you all, I'll add you to mine. 

Thank PiB!

  1. I just want to officially jump on the bandwagon. I don't want to add everybody to mine until they say they want it, because I don't to spam anybody with emails. I've added those who said they wanted in so far, PiB and Chrysame.

    I'd like to be added to everybody's, too.

  2. Okay, I lied. I need email addresses to add people. My email's on my profile.

  3. I'm finding it nice so far. I can see comments go by on other blogs, and decide when I should pop by. :)

  4. I think I already added you but will check. I think I added everyone. If anyone wants off all they have to do is let me know.
    I know I want to be on all of them.
    My emails in my profile too.

  5. The only person I'm really wondering about leaving on this is Muleskinner. He's going to feel like a mute swan in the midst of a gaggle of geese. A very noisy active gaggle at that!

  6. LOL at the very noisy active gaggle. I added yours PiB, after I apparently clicked add all. when I went back to add another, everyones email was there. I've been hoping no one would get upset about it.
    I'm sure muleskinner will let us know if he wants to be removed or stay. Hope he wants to stay.

  7. I officially love it. I have gmail put the comments into a special filter and they don't clutter the inbox. And it's really nice to see the comments as they flow by. Thanks everyone for adding me to those feeds.

  8. Gaggle of geese indeed. lol. Where is Muleskinner, anyway? I haven't seen him around lately. I hope we haven't driven him away.

  9. I recall Muleskinner saying something about extra work load or something like that. I don't want to even think of what he is going to do when he checks his email.

  10. I believe he has a special profile and inbox for the blogs now. Which he is going to be *stunned* when he opens it. :)

  11. I'm just picturing his family running into the room when he opens it and yells, What the hell have they done to me?

    To Muleskinner Don, Forgive us for this. We just didn't want to leave you out of our gaggle.

  12. Eek!!!

    What have you girls been up to? 70+ emails in my Grandpa.Muleskinner inbox. Spam-o-rama drama!!!

    I like it!!! Don't know how I'll ever get them all read much less answered. But it's a great idea. And who knows when I'll get back to my doing my second favorite hobby? - Storytelling... the first obviously playing ts3. :-/

    Don't feel sorry for me because I don't feel sorry for myself. I am grateful to have such fine employment during this troubled economy.

    I have in fact been in the 'overdrive' mode with work. My job puts me through cycles of normal (whatever that is) and hyper drive.

    When that happens, I have to make hard choices and drop everything else. I'm not in position to say no to my employer of 20+ years. I am salaried.

    So when the proverbial sh*t hits the fan, I jump into action and get it done. Eventually things even out and the crazy at work gets not so crazy.

    I'm only responding to this one post for now ladies. I have skimmed through some of the gazillion comments you've posted to my email.

    I may have to call a plumber! Just kidding... ROLF!!!

    My loving wife said I needed a time out this evening. After evening meal she presented me with the copy of 'WA' she had purchased for me today. Sooooooooooooooooo...having got a heads up from you fabulous blogger friends (sifting, skimming and focusing on the important stuff (not how hot your sim guys look - blah-blah-blah) I read about the update.

    Went to the sight and downloaded. No problems...

    Installed 'WA'. No problems...

    Prompted to install update/patch for 'WA'. No problems...

    Played 'WA' for 2+ hours and got all the way through 1 adventure/goal with a practice/throw away sim (if something bad should happen). Nothing bad happened. My pre 'WA' game is intact...so I'm hopefully get back to continuing Sierra's story.

    Have fun!!! I'll return when I can.

    Geez, "a mute swan...gaggle of geese..."

    I'm still hoping that another old fart like myself will eventually find our little group and join in the fun we share here.

    'odd man' out for the moment due to circumstances beyond my control. I'm to old to get a note from my mother, so this will have to do for now. :o)

  13. Hi Muleskinner Don, did you yell when you opened the email? I'm ducking behind my keyboard. I think we all understand how work loads can keep us away. I too am happy to still have my work.
    You don't have to reply to everything. We just wanted to make sure you are included. I know I love your stories. We'll see you when work slows down.

    Right now I must get some sleep. Thanks for commenting on the update/patch. I plan to download it as soon as I know I have some time to spend with it.

    BTW. We have some very good looking males thank you. :D

    I'm sure we will all still be here when your work gets back to "normal".

    No need to reply to this.

  14. Sorry about your workload Grampa, but as you said at least you have employment!

    What a lovely wife you have:) Her gesture really made me feel warm inside.

    I am glad you enjoying the EP.

    I hope your workload becomes less soon.

  15. Hey Muleskinner,

    For the record, I did debate leaving you out of this scheme just because I had a feeling that it could be a bit chatty. :) In fact, no one at all has been added to my Adventures with Sims blog but the next update will be soon and I'll be adding the usual suspects then.

    Here's a bit of eye candy for you, she was adopted and grows up quite well http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=1549237

    We all know how work or travel or both can interfere with fun. Glad your lovely wife bought you an EP to ease the strain. Very thoughtful.
