Jo's Cafe

**Good Morning! If you have Stumbled in here or came via Blog Explosion, please let me know in comments. Grab a cup of and stay a while at the Cafe**

I woke up yesterday to a fever, throat and ears closing up and “hell” sounding better than I felt. After updating the blog with the Friday’s Feast and emailing work that I wasn’t bringing this crap in there, I settled on the couch with Fox News on the tv and DH snoring on the couch. The laptop open and medication at hand, I went about digging through the Friday’s Feast posters better than I’ve had time for in the past.  A lot of people that do the feast have posted on my response, so time to do the favor.  One of my pet peeves started smacking me in the face: blogs with music that can’t be muted.  For those that are confused, opening a blog that has background music and no matter how much you look there is no “off” button.  I quickly close the blog without posting a comment.  Each to their own, but frankly I don’t believe in forcing my choice of music on anyone visiting here.  In the background I had Brian and the Judge streaming and then having music coming through over playing what I was listening to is just plain ass rude.  Please – if you are going to have music playing on your blog as soon as it loads, give the visitor the option of turning it off at the top of the blog.  YUCK!
