If you link to my blog and I DON’T have you listed on my sidebar linkies, would you kindly leave a comment here with your URL (link address) so I can consider adding you?

I say “consider” because if you’re pron, a sicko (not in the physical sense, but the mental), don’t regularly post (why give my readers, all 3 of them, a dead link), post pictures or text that might be considered offensive by the majority of my readers (again, all 3 of them, so that’s a tight margin and not very good odds), a better photographer than me that I don’t know in person (really, why would I want to point out that I’m not as good as I think I am, hmm?), don’t linkie to me or someone I just don’t want to link to then I won’t add the link.

That’s pretty simple, isn’t it?

Maybe I already have everybody (all 3 of you) that reads me (and my poor comment section will remain neglected).

Poor, poor section.

Oh, the name :) I thought I had explained the name on my blog before, but I just looked and it seems I hadn’t… just posted the logo. I get asked that all the time and wish I had a fun story, but I don’t. It was quite the process going over all sorts of possible words and phrases. Somewhere, probably still in moving boxes from over a year ago, there are scratch papers with ideas written then scribbled out.

My actual name is already taken by an comedic actress and a girl involved in a murder (two different people, not a murdering actress), so using my name plus ‘photography’ was out. Besides, our last name gets butchered all the time as Hudson, Hodgkins, Hobson and Hubson so I didn’t want to worry about spelling over and over (see my side bar on baby names to get my drift).

Two worded phrases that I thought might work were already being used (Hocus Focus anyone?), so I had to go with three and do a search to make sure the three don’t come up in an existing business.

I have a beef about mispelling on purpose too: Kim’s Kreations, Krazy Kar Korner (isn’t that an actual business name in Utah somewhere?), Foto To Go, Sooper Sweaty (you catch what I’m throwing here, don’tcha?)

Although I don’t believe in being lucky (like Harpo, “I feel that luck is preparation meeting opportunity”), I like the word a lot. When I see it written or hear someone say it I get happy inside – it’s a happy word. I love the color red, not so much to wear but to look at and decorate with (considered using “rosso” instead of red but figured I’m not Italian, nor do I speak Italian, so that went out the window). My very first eBay purchase years ago was a 41′ wooden rooster from Africa (I had a thing for roosters but it’s not like I want a bunch of rooster stuff all over my house), but I’m a girl so I adapted to use hen (chick didn’t flow) instead of rooster.

Since the name story is so boring, maybe you could come up with a better one? When someone asks me, “How did you come up with your name?” I could have something much clever to say! Add it to the comments and we’ll vote to see which one is the best. Come on, let’s play…
