Ecosystem Schmecosystem

I learned tonight, to my chagrin, that I am an insignificant "insignificant microbe". I am, in fact, so insignificant that I decided not to wait until the page finished loading to see just how really insignificant I really am.

But as I told Carol, who needs them? I prefer to think of myself as a sub-atomic particle--an electron, to be exact. After all, I am in constant motion, I'm a really good sharer, I can hop over and visit other electrons, and I am full of energy.

So there, ecosystem!

Hmm. What does that make me?

Hey, you're much more than an "insignificant microbe" to me, to us I dare say! Don't be disheartened. You're the hub of my blogsurfing world!

[Kim from Hiraeth]

Kyle, I guess that makes you an electron, too! You know, electrons have all the fun! :)

missmellifluous,

You are so very kind, but don't worry; I'm not disheartened. I'm just having a little bit of fun at my own expense. I can afford it! :)

One of the teen blogs writers whom my daughter reads, called it the "ego system" as opposed to the "ecosystem." Isn't it the truth?

[Carol]

Ego system! Oh, that is priceless. Makes me want to scrap all links and be an electron, too.
