All Souls’ Day
A big thank-you to everyone who participated — as poster or player or both — in Behind The Mask yesterday! It was great fun, and led many of us to new blogs we’d yet to discover. I know, just what we all need: more blogs to read.
I was quite pleased that I guessed all of Nat’s mystery bloggers correctly, even though I was only familiar with three of them. The others I identified by visiting their blogs and looking for clues. Unfortunately, that technique didn’t help me one damn bit with Suze’s! Here at Pseudotherapy, Hilly and Ajooja each got 8 right, but the only person to correctly identify all 10 of my mystery bloggers was Cake Lady. Who are you, Cake Lady, and how is it that you know my blog friends even better than they know themselves?!?!
The correct answers were:
1. Sizzle (Who didn’t even recognize herself!)
2. Kim (Come on now, who else brings Siths into a conversation?)
3. Dave2 (I thought this one would be too easy, but most people thought it was Avi or Neil)
4. Hilly (One of my favorite quotes of ALL TIME)
5. Karl (Another I figured would be obvious)
6. Catherine (Isn’t she so cute?!?!)
7. Kevin (The Lemon Drop reference was supposed to mislead people. It didn’t.)
8. Liz (Ask me how many people I’ve emailed this quote to!)
9. Neil (Believe it or not, he’s talking about cheesecake)
10. Ajooja (The quote that caused me to do one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever done in my life, but that’s another story, and the two people who know it better STFU!!!!!)
I signed up for NaBloPoMo again this year. Here’s hoping I stick with it! At least I’ve got Day One down.

I totally sucked a– at this game. Obvs I don’t know enough about this new circle of bloggy folk.
There’s only one solution for that. MORE READING!

I think “Lemon Drop” didn’t fool us because of the way it was worded! What I did to guess so many correctly is not only looked at what was being said but *how* it was being said. Like…Dave uses the word “boobies” and Karl uses italics for emphasis instead of bold and so on.
Damn Gina, I should be a detective

I don’t remember how it was that I came across your blog but I enjoyed it and I will be back!

Yay! The meme was so much fun. I hope you do more… throughout the year and next Halloween!

Do I know what I made you do?
If not, I’ve got to hear that story.
(BTW, I don’t know if I feel that way now that I’m medicated and further away from the story that shall not be repeated.)

Tiff: Yeah, but your wrong guesses were still *good* guesses!
Hilly: You ARE one, Scooby!
Cake Lady: Right back atcha - I LOVE your sexy-fun blog!
Kim: I just might do that.
Sizzle: The problem is, you say so *many* quote-worthy things, you couldn’t possibly remember them all. You need to publish a book or something.
ajooja: Oh God, don’t make me remind you!!! I’m STILL humiliated that I reacted so impulsively.
Nat: Your limericks were AWESOME!!! I could never be so clever.
