News Notes: the DL, Horror Blogger Alliance and iZombie contest

In some boo-hoo/waahhh! news, I have been placed on the 15-day DL retroactive to Sunday morning. Over the weekend, I received a pretty bad eye injury. I will spare you the graphic details but let's just say it will expensive to repair my eye, I am in constant pain, have almost no vision in said injured eye, and have to limit my computer usage. So thankfully I have many scheduled posts to last ETMC a little while as I rest my eye and get back on the mend because my blog time is now extremely limited. I can already feel the DT's and withdrawal kicking in. To make matters worse, Monster-Mania is happening in a little over a week's time and I am not sure whether my eye will be healed by then. So I have that going for me. Party-time! kay enough whining.

Now for the good stuff...

The Horror Blogger Alliance (aka HBA or the bad mutha truckas) have recently been mentioned in issue #103 of the Rue Morgue publication. As a proud member of the HBA, I wanted to do my duty and get the word out for them as they have done for many other bloggers' posts in the past. Congrats to the guys and gals behind the HBA mainframe and if you have a Rue Morgue subscription, check it out. Here is a link to the HBA post and another to Rue Morgue.

Also, Jeremy (aka iZombie) is a having a contest over at his awesome blog, iZombielover. Jeremy is closing in on 100 followers (I think he is still only 4 away), so if you have not yet please check out his site, give him a follow and join his contest which is ridiculously easy to enter. He is a great blogger, talented artist and a good blogger buddy to have so please check out his site and make sure to help him reach the century mark.

Well my brief allotted time on my computer for leisure activities has now come to an end. Just because I am down for the count, please make sure to keep stopping by because I will have some cool daily posts. And pray that I won't look like Popeye for long. Peace!
