I certainly didn't get round to seeing as many blogs as I should. I think going to the hotel sounds like a great idea - slumping like your cartoon skelebone above was definitely the 2nd best option! Your Paranormal and Supernatural theme was a good read ... and your last Zombie cartoon always makes me burst out laughing .. those brains!

There is NO way I could pick only three blogs. I had way too many that I visited every day while also keeping up with my duties as co-host and trying to find new blogs. I'm amazed that you even tried, brave soul that you are! Thanks for co-hosting IWSG today!

Holli Moncrieff had fascinating stories of the macabre, many were real, or legends. I also enjoyed reading Silvia Villalobos' stories about her life and how it connects with her book. Teresa, Journaling Woman, featured favorite books, and most of them were also some of my favorites.<br /><a href="http://www.playoffthepage.com" rel="nofollow">Play off the Page</a><br />Mary Aalgaardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10089502829581772836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1824539601044491117.post-67391774652866624732015-05-06T04:48:56.483-07:002015-05-06T04:48:56.483-07:00Postal stamp:))) I wish I had more time to visit e...Postal stamp:))) I wish I had more time to visit everyone on the list!!
