The first thing I'd like to say about this blog is that I've been waiting for it to come up to be reviewed. It's not that it's a blog that I've ever read before this review, but I just liked the title. I know, I'm easily won over, even though this IS a Blogger blog.
However, I was surprised when I got to the blog. As I said, it's a Blogger blog, and I typically don't like those, but every now and then there's a blog that's absolutely gorgeous. This blog has an It's Happy Bunny template, and I love the sarcastic (yet adorable) humor. Networkchic has to get points for having a Blogger template that I actually like.
Her posts tend to be long, which is something I personally like. She describes the blog as being creative writing, and while it could be described as personal as well it's very moving. Although I'm slightly amused at the "Nekkid Thursday" picture posted (go ahead and check it out, it's nothing much really), most of the blog is deep and thoughtful. I can tell that the blogger is someone who really takes the time to think about life before writing those thoughts down. And there's a poem (which I'm assuming was written by her), and I love poetry. Overall, the entries all score points with me.
The "extras" are mainly just Blogger standards, with a few spare things thrown in. She's got links, her Blogger profile, archives, and some statistical things. I'm not too fond of the Bravenet counter since Bravenet is infamous for causing popups, but I didn't experience any so I'll let it slide this time. ;)
In the end, this blog is pretty good. I don't know if it'll make it onto my personal blog favorites list, but it's definitely worth checking out. It's not the best blog out there, but it's far from being average, which I don't typically say about Blogger blogs, but this one definitely gets the stamp of approval.
