**Update: I am thinking of doing this on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, do any of those work better than others?**
Ladies, I have an idea. Wow, stop the presses right? But really, I want your input on it, because, well, it involves you! I went on a Spring Break Trip a couple of weeks back, and thought it would be fun if we all went on a Spring Break Trip.
I was thinking of doing a Random Blog Spring Fling...what is that you ask?
Here is the idea:
A group of us (the bigger the better) all write a post on a certain theme. Then, you email the post to me, and I randomly select a fellow blogger and send the post to them. They put your post on their blog. You? You have no idea whose blog your post lands on. You have to visit (hence the fling) your fellow bloggers, commenting and searching for your post!
I think it would be a fun way to visit new blogs and see what we can come up with! I have no idea on theme, except doing something funny, or a picture theme (like you take a picture of a theme subject, say PEANUT BUTTER, and see what different variations we come up with.)
The more the better on this, so I sweeten the pot with prizes.
Like a Blogging t-shirt (probably not this exact one, but I'll choose one an post it.) AND a cool charm of your choice from NoisyBird Studios on Etsy!
So, tell me what you think. Would this work? Are you interested? Ideas?

I could totally do a whole post about peanut butter. Count me in!
sounds fun to me if I have a few days warning...
Count me in!
I'm in! Bring on the fling of blogs!
sounds fun...do we get a warning first???
sounds fun, but i'm totally lost! i'm gonna have to read this again tomorrow after i get some sleep!
Ahhh, brings me back to college days (different kind of fling)...I am so in, sounds like fun. Oh, the pressure of a blog topic...can't wait to see what you come up with. :)
This sounds great! I'm in.
Hey, I'm game!!! =0)
I'd say Sunday.
Count me in, I love meeting new people in the blogging world. With a little notice, anything is possible! Have a blessed Monday!
Sounds like fun! Count me in. I actually like the PB idea, and it made my mind start to wander about other ideas....maybe a picture of your favorite girlie product you can't live without. Picture of how you look in the morning right after rolling out of bed (no prior primping).....oh the possibilities!
Oh, I'm in! I love stuff like this. It sounds fun!
sounds great, count me in!!
That would be fun! I'm willing, provided you don't go with the suggestion of an unretouched photo of my not-bright-eyed and not-bushy-tailed waking up self.
How 'bout a pantry staple you can't live without...
Sounds like fun. I'm in!
I'm in... I claim the post with peanut butter smooshed in the window panes.
That would be so fun. If I could only figure out how to email a post. I'm totally computer stupid.
Depending on when you do it, I probably can play.
I could do it :) What a cool idea :)
Me, me, me! I wanna play!
ok... i think i understand now! i'm in.
I'm so in. But I have to say... "blog flinging" sounds a little like something that happened in our house when Wiggle Man had an overabundance of snot.
But I'm still in. :)
Sure, why not?! Friday would work better for me, since I don't have computer access at home. I blog at work...shhh...don't tell anyone.
Count me in...fun! You don't even need to sweeten it with prizes (at least for me!)... :)
Count me in...just need a little notice so I can get my thinking cap on!
this sounds like fun! ;) count me in!
Count me in..with a little warning..I have a double birthday this Saturday..but other wise I am SO there!
Sounds like fun! I think I need to be forced to blog about something positive. Peanut butter could just be the thing... :)
Maybe send everyone on a shopping trip (you don't have to buy) just take a pic in what you would want to be your next new spring outfit! That way we can all see each other and get some ideas about trends.
Can you tell I used to work in retail???
Oh heck yes sister!
I'm in :-)
I'm totally up for a fling...SPRING fling that is:)
This sounds like a ton of fun - I have no clue if I could be funny/witty/smart enough to do a good post but what the heck, I'm in!
Definitely interested!
I'm in! this could be lots of fun! of course, I could get bloggers block and not be able to write in whole sentences, which would suck for whoever got my post. Don't worry, though. No insecurites here.
It sounds like fun!I'm in.
Fun! I'd play.
I LOVE this idea. I have to think about girly products though. . . meanwhile I don't know if you saw this but I did reference one of your very thought-provoking posts on my blog: http://honeypiehorse.blogspot.com/2009/03/on-concerts-and-original-sin.html
