With a opportune moniker like Paris Beaverbanks and a lovely title like that, you can almost see the rumours start to fly. Not about me of course, but about the jailbird Paris Hilton who shares my same first name sitting in a Los Angeles jail somewhere, not sleeping nor eating apparently. She has her own cell with glass door and 24 hour guard. Not bad right? Some death row prisoners get less than that! You know, I thought getting into jail was the whole point of her violating her probation but then with eccentric rich heiresses you just never know.
But I digress. The point of this post is about me getting infected with the Blogivitis virus. Its all Wuching’s fault. He came around sowing his wild oats virus and infected me. Atichoo! Bless me. 
He got the virus so bad, he even confused me with Paris Hilton who is in jail so she can’t do the tag right now so its just me, Paris B.
According to Wuching, he had identified 10 symptoms of Blogivitis so I checked my own symptoms and these are my 10 symptoms of the Blogivitis virus I have contracted:
- I get to work and immediately check Gmail for comments on my blogs - even before coffee. I’m a comment whore.
- I find myself paying more attention to my surroundings just in case there’s something blog-worthy in the situation/place I’m in.
- I never used to have dark circles under my eyes. I now have them worse than if I were to apply eye liner because I stay up late at night blogging when I should be catching up on my beauty sleep. Result, I have to spend money on concealer so I don’t scare little kids in the day.
- I re-learn html, self-teach css, twist my head around wordpress, crack my skull on search engine optimization, and whore my sites for the traffic. 4 out of 5 ain’t bad
- I find a reason to take a photo of anything, just in case I can blog about it, like the rude man who alas! refused to camwhore for me.
- I know more about my blog friends’ lives and families than I do my real friends who don’t have blogs.
- I do memes and tags because it tells you that someone appreciates your blog enough to help you boost your traffic and to link you. Also if you don’t then no one will tag you anymore and that would be a tragedy!
- I get myself a new browser because I’m told my site looked funny in it and I had to make sure it did not happen again.
- I learn to make my hobby work for me. So far, the dividends are satisfactory
- I take photos of food. ’nuff said.
In the spirit of being loving and sharing I will hereby infect the Blogivitis virus to the following people who must tell us all what their symptoms are:
- Giddy Tigers - She said she’s infected already so lets see her symptoms
- PabloPabla - He was so kind to help me out with Firefox I’m returning the kindness lol
- Rinnah - She’s on a hiatus but I still spy her around. Must be the blogivitis virus!
- Sooyin - A taggee outside my usual blogosphere - a fresh take perhaps?
- Doris - because I still owe her a tag that I’m trying hard to work on

Those are great pictures there….I can’t believe someone with a *disease* took them!
*runs off to check on my blogivitis symptoms*
PB says: Thanks and I would love to hear about your symptoms
Ahahaha… my hiatus is only from writing blogposts… not from visiting and commenting! That’s why I’m lurking around at many places. Hehehe.
I owe two other people tags… looks like I shall be back soon!
p.s. There’s a PPP opportunity about Paris Hilton and some infectious disease, only 50 words. Maybe you should take that up. Heh! ;P
PB says: Heh… whenever you can then! I did take that ppp op last week. Very appropriate.
take some of my happy pills, go to bed early, watch TV instead of computer & will feel better next day but miss out on the blogosphere!
PB says: I plan to do that soon. Being online so much makes me lose touch of reality
Hahaha, yeah, I think the worst symptom is checking email for comments so lustily, it’s as if you’re hoping you won some lottery, everyday! The taking a pic of anything whatsoever is pretty bad too!
PB says: getting nice comments IS like winning some lottery
I got a little bit virus only… all I ever do is login to all of PB’s blogs and read her updates. Sometimes I leave a comment, sometimes I don’t. But I *always* click the Refresh button repeatedly and check back endless times a day, hoping that she has miraculously forgotten she has a day job and will just blog and blog. Doesn’t happen. Sigh.
PB says: roflol! My personal cheerleader
Help me find someone who can take me away from my day job and I’ll happily fulfil your request to blog all day

Don’t worry, it is self limiting and u will be healed soon, with time
PB says: hehe… question is whether you want to be healed eh?
no, yes, maybe, yes, maybe, some, yes, yes, no, yes.
hmmmm… I’m not too far off, yet I do have that disease coming back to haunt me every now and then, eh? lol!
[...] Whilst blogging is serious business for some, it is considered fun for others. However, I have just been alerted to some potential tell-tale danger signs which bloggers ought to take cognisance of. It may be harmful to bloggers if you have at least 3 or more of these symptoms. Frankly, after analysing them, I have symptoms of all of them! Thanks to the head’s up from Paris -my name is more glamourous than Hilton- Beaverbanks. [...]
