Why yes it has my favorite IHGB readers. It’s been two years since I started a little website for my Bachelor followers. And look how we’ve grown!
I decided that I would take this time to revisit some of my more popular posts (using stat counters) and give you guys the opportunity to walk down memory lane.
Behold –
I Hate Green Beans Greatest Hits, Volume 1
Does the phrase HUET training mean anything to you?
The guy holding the Vodka calls all the shots.
Three words: Civil War Re-Enactment
Who could forget the Cat Whisperer?
Or the beauty of jazzercise?
Adventures in Petra involve oxygen tanks and camels. Fun times.
And finally…how it all began.
You guys are too good to me. Here’s to another year of wonderful randomness.
Love,
Lincee
Thanks for always brightening my day!
I just re-read the Vodka post- HILARIOUS!! Thanks for sharing your life, humor and joy with us, Lincee! I can’t wait to see who you pick as part of being pimped out! And I am also excited to hear how your friend lost so much weight!
oh those were fun!
i’m new to your site (and watching) so all that was very new to me.
thanks for a good start to my day!
oh, and i’m hoping my daughter won’t kill us with her name. we balanced her first name out w/ a normal middle name- just in case!
Can’t wait for the upcoming year and to find out which lucky man you select from your pimping/pimped experience! Thanks for sharing your life with us!
Congrats on 2 years! I love your site and am excited every time I see a post in my Google Reader. Thanks for the endless entertainment and for sharing so much of yourself with us!
I am proud to say that although I do not post often, I have been around reading this blog for quite some time and it never fails to make me laugh! Lincee, you are truly gifted with a charming wit and great ability to express your thoughts in a way that makes us “get you” even though we don’t know you! Keep it up girl!
P.S. I am so crossing my fingers for a juicy update to the Lincee pimping!!
Congratulations, Lincee! You bring fun to my day with every post (Batch-related and otherwise). I am blessed to “know” you through the blogosphere. Thanks for bringing back the favorites!
I have loved your blog from the beginning. Thanks for the laughs! Hope your knee if healing
What about the warm vanilla sugar/croutons? That one had me laughing for days. I can’t seem to find it in the archives.
CONGRATS on your 2 year anniversary, LIncee! I’ve been a fan & follower of your recaps since the email days, & it’s SO cool to witness just how many lives you touch mby making millions laugh. A big vodka toast (w/ no herring chaser) to the funniest gal in the blogosphere that has “the appetite of a sophisticated fourth grader”! Thanks for the laughs, & hope theknee holds up during the big Hallsville Civil War re-enactment soiree!
2 years? Why is seems like yesterday I started reading the site when you were but a user on blogspot. And here you are with your own domain and everything. It’s been great fun. While I don’t want to speak for the other readers, I will say that I am blessed by your web presence. While I thoroughly enjoy the Bachelor/ette recaps, I have to say I really love the glimpses into who Lincee Ray really is. Keep up the good work!
I agree with Michelletax about the croutons post. Hilarious! I have told so many people about that! I very rarely laugh out loud at something I read, but that post had me rolling! Because they DO look like croutons!
I feel your pain…. my first name is Karis. My sister’s name? Teresa. Easy-Peasy. I too, never got the cute personalized pencils!!
Lincee, I know so many people say this to you and you may be tired of hearing it, but . . . PLEASE write a book. You have so many unique stories and sometimes I read them and wonder, ‘How can all of these hilarious/crazy things happen to one person?!’ and laugh so hard at your ability to tell a story. That’s what makes reading them so great. (I mean, who figures out later that the mud on their face was part-sewer and the ‘ham and turkey’ they ate was (gasp!) . . donkey tongue?!)
Thank you for sharing both your faith and your ‘life and times’ with us.
And incidentally, if it makes you feel any better, even though my name is ‘Jennifer’ and that ended up being THE MOST POPULAR NAME the year I was born (and I never had a class without at least 3 of ‘us’ in it) – - and if they weren’t sold out, there was anything and everything you could want personalized with ‘Jennifer’ on it . . . my mom would never buy any of it for me. She was too paranoid it would be used in an evil plot against me.
I remember she was particularly averse to even CONSIDERING the hair barettes with ‘Jennifer’ on them because she was absolutely convinced that a stranger would read them, call me by name at the mall, and tell me a story about how ‘my mom sent me to pick you up because she couldn’t come,’ and kidnap me. TRUE STORY. She must have watched the news too much (I think this was before Dateline!) – - so rest assured that not everyone who even COULD, got to partake in the personalized goodness, either.
(AND, you’re also blessed with an awesome, unique name. No matter where I am, I usually end up one of twelve people who turn to see if ‘they’ mean ‘us’ when they call for ‘Jennifer.’)
Bit it’s ok – - I made up for those years of being denied by getting my name tattooed around my wrist. Take THAT, mom! (haaaaaaaa, I kid, I kid. I didn’t do that, ha!)
I so love your recaps for the Bachelor, but have been enjoying your blogs as well! So freaking funny that you took up Jazzercise because I did that about 9 years ago and it was the only thing that I thoroughly enjoyed…well as far as working out goes. I kept with it and lost quite a few lbs as well as toning up (even someone like me that has 2 left feet and dances like a total white girl). When I would tell people I was doing jazzercise, they’d crack up! Seriously, it’s totally awesome and I wish I could find someone to watch my little chitlin’ so I could go back to it and shed some of these unwanted “lbs”.
So happy my sister-in-law turned me onto you because you make me smile all of the time!
#14- I too am a Jennifer and got jipped on getting anything with my name on it because they were always sold out. I remember wanting a license plate for my awesome yellow banana-seat bike, but struck out because all of them were sold out with my name. Also, I always had 3 girls in my class that were Jennifer’s, so I never got to be called “Jennifer” in school. I was always “Jenny” or “Jen”. All I wanted to be was “Jennifer” and now I am…oh to be older:)
#14 Jenn. Ok so I was also a paranoid mom who wouldn’t let her kids have personalized anything to wear. It was on the news that kidnappers watched for that. I also had blue eyed blonde kids and they said they were also targets for kidnappers. My niece had her sons name on his backpack and the whole famly nearly had heart failure. It was an 80s thing.
lincee, thanks for continuing to share your randomness…. it gives the rest of us (who are completely random)… HOPE and ENCOURAGEMENT… that we’re not alone… and that we too, with the slightest symptoms of behavioral or mental Turrets, are not the only ones. Well, maybe we are. I just threw that last part in there to justify myself a tiny bit under the premise of “randomness”.
anyway, you’re a crack up and an easy read (not just easy, so no offense). keep it up, girl!
also, no offense to anyone with actual tourretts… i was just using the term for the sake of visualization and understanding of symptoms, despite actual diagnosis.
To Lincee fans: I got to meet Lincee at a wedding last week — I had been looking forward to it for weeks! And let me tell you, the photographs of her on the blog don’t even come close to portraying her beauty — she has a sparkle and radiance that no camera could capture — sounds sappy I know — but I am serious. I have been one of her biggest fans — I enjoy her wit, admire her big heart, and am in awe of her strong faith and the importance to her of family and friends. And because I know people that know her, I know that she is the real deal.
Thanks Lincee for making us laugh and making our days a little brighter.
So is it REALLY bad that I didn’t even need to click on the links to remember (and laugh out loud) each of those posts?
Yep, it’s official… I’m a follower. And I’m not afraid.
Tlee
Happy Anniversary! Thats awesome. I’ve been reading for about a year and half so I’ve been here a while and I absolutely love your recaps and your randomness! Keep up the great work!
@W3, what a nice thing to post! Thank you for saying how wonderful Lincee is ‘even in person.’ I’m sure I can speak for everyone to say ‘we never doubted it,’ but it is really nice to know that someone as sweet and funny as Lincee is genuine in this world of so much make-believe.
You go, girl!
@Jenny G (#15), that’s HILARIOUS.
And I can assure you that it wasn’t me/my family buying out the ‘Jennifer’ stuff, LOL.
@baseballmama (#16) – - haaaaaaaaa, that cracked me up! “heart failure!”
Well, I’ll admit to a bit more understanding and empathy toward my mom’s POV since learning that she wasn’t the only paranoid one and that ‘the media’ might have helped fuel the fear. I now (of course!) realize that it was out of love for me that she did it, and of course I can appreciate it now and don’t think it was THAT big of a deal not to have my name emblazoned on everything I own.
It did, however, give me a lot less of a defense when I’d say, “Hey, that’s mine!” to my brother and he’d respond snarkily with, “Oh yeah? Is your name on it?”
Hmmm. I sense a blog post of my own coming on out of this . . . haaaa!
The theme of my blog is “Life in U2 lyrics” as U2 is my favorite band and all of my blog post titles are lyrics from a U2 song. I think I’ll call this one, “In the name of love . . .” (haaaaaaaaaa!)
(heart) you, Lincee! Your blog has even managed to spark my creativity. Your giving never ceases.
Congratulations on two fabulously funny years!
BTW, what’s the story on your friend losing a million pounds in like 2 hours? I’m still waiting to find out how.
With love,
Fat in Florida
