Welcome to Day 3 of our Back to Blogging event! Today we are highlighting post titles we are particularly proud of.
Have you created a title that was incredibly funny, creative, or sentimental? Re-publish the post on your blog and then link it up here on SITS. We’d love to check it out and understand why you feel the post is important.
For today’s assignment, I am sharing a post I wrote back in February when I was only a few months pregnant. The title?
Iβd like to think that I am a pretty even tempered person, but something has been amiss lately. Maybe you could blame my outbursts on my raging hormones. Or maybe you could say that any patience I have is being depleted by my children. Whatever the case may be, my husband often returns home from work to bear the brunt of my tirades.
Does this sound familiar? Not sure? Let’s just say that if you find yourself having conversations like mine, then it may be time to face reality and accept that you too are an angry pregnant lady.
(Or maybe you are just angry and not pregnant. Either way.)
Scenario 1:
Well Meaning Husband: Wow! You are really starting to look pregnant. I love it. Youβre beautiful.
Angry Wife: What are you talking about?!? I donβt look pregnant. What the hell is wrong with you? You must be blind. Look, I still fit into my jeans!!!
(Angry wife storms off into bathroom for the full effect, knowing perfectly well that her husband speaks the truth and she does look pregnant.)
Scenario 2:
Helpful Husband: Hey, Francesca, when you have a chance, could you please come downstairs and give me a hand with dinner? It is almost ready and I think the kids are pretty hungry.
(Angry wife ignores husband completely and does not respond. 10 minutes pass.)
Helpful Husband: Did you hear me?
Angry Wife: Iβm here. My GAWD, I was in the bathroom!! Canβt I get one minute of peace and quiet? Just wait a sec!!
Helpful Husband: Well, it has been like 15 minutes since I first asked.
Angry Wife: It hasnβt been that long. And no one died.
Now it’s your turn! Link up a post with a title that you want to show off again.
For those who might be joining us for the first time today, here is a quick recap on how to enter to win Thelma & Louise, the Electrolux Washer/Dryer set we are giving away:
Play along! Write a post using the daily prompts we described here and then link your post on SITS each day this week. All posts should mention and link to our sponsors, Standards of Excellence, Westar Kitchen and Bath, and Florida Builder Appliances, somewhere in the text.

Discusss! Join Jenn from Rook No. 17 as she continues the discussion on today’s topic in the SITS Girls Community in BlogFrog.
Would βGone With the Windβ have been as huge a success had it been titled βA Story From The Civil Warβ? Would we be as enamored with Sβmores if they were called βGraham Cracker Sandwichesβ? Ever heard of the film, βCan Hieronymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe and Find True Happiness?β. With a name like that itβs no surprise that this 1969 musical film has remained in relative obscurity. So, WHATβS IN A NAME?…
The contest will remain open until Sunday, September 19, which means you have through the weekend to participate. Good luck!

I am so excited to join the SITS community! I am new to blogging so it is a big learning curve. One of the most enjoyable posts I wrote was about the pivotal moment I knew I had become an adult – I call it “The Bee Sting”
http://theroaringdecade.wordpress.com
Thanks for the support everyone!
I posted my assignment for today – you can read it here http://wp.me/sS0Fl-177
Thanks,
Linda
so this is for yesterdays and today’s. i wasn’t gonna play this, but, i really like this post. a lot. it’s called four-letter words. it’s my most-recent post.
Happy Wednesday! This Back to Blogging Week has been awesome!
Oh my gosh, I am so ALWAYS late. Seems like those words are out of order, but that is exactly what I mean to say. Some “on top of it” ladies have already posted Day 4. The heck? I am so happy I got Day 3 done before midnight.
Aaaaanyway, I have a post title I am proud of…
It’s not much to read…
Just a title and a picture… oh and maybe a word of advice:
http://www.itshowsherolls.com/2010/09/back-to-blogging-day-3-cat-got-my.html
This post is so entertaining I thought I’d leave it up for a couple more days. After watching it, you’ll run right out and sign up for a ZUMBA class! Check it out!
Titles aren’t necessarily a strong point, I’m not sure that I have any really great ones. This is something I’ll need to work on…
Linked up tonight with “Don’t cry over spilled milk….or whatever that stuff was!”
http://www.roubinek.net/2010/09/16/back-to-blogging-day-3/
I tweeted about the giveaway here:
http://twitter.com/jmroubinek/status/24629519668
Whew – finally was able to link up! My title: “I Shoplifted Tonight”
A little late to SITS today, but just posted for Day 3 of this fun challenge. My little guy is on the verge of being really sick – NO!
Finally got a chance to link up today! Happy Hump Day!
I can’t believe I almost forgot to link up today! It has been a crazy day (and week!)
Here’s one of my favorite titles:
Three gifts were good enough for Baby Jesus!
Ha!!
Francesca, I loved that post the first time around. This has been a fun challenge!
Haha, I’m totally THAT crazy pregnant woman! LOVE it!
I tweeted the phrase. and linked todays post up above.
I’m really enjoying looking back through the old posts. This one, I thought was witty at the time, plus it brings back such a heartwarming feeling. I needed this memory as my daughter (and I) struggle through her tween years.

I swear, sometimes I think the only reason I blog is so that I can remember my son’s sweetest moments!
Oh, Francesca! LOL! Your poor husband! π
I ‘liked’ each of the three sponsors on facebook!
Hello everyone! Hoping your having a great week!
I don’t even have the energy to hit the back button to find my favorite post title. Maybe tomorrow. It’s just one of those days
I totally understand, those days….
I used a new word I wasnt sure existed so i used it anyway thinking I had made it up. BUT no it’s a real word! clever π
http://widgetlucy.blogspot.com/2010/08/randominity-of-what-is-found-on-floor.html
ok probably not so much PROUD of the title. It’s not exactly catchy or “flowing” but this is kind of a hard question. I often give my post a title that comes off the top of my head.
Not much to boast with, I’m afraid, as I only have three entries so far and none of the titles are, sadly, too witty. ;_;
Some of the options up there made me giggle out loud, though. π
I’m proud of all my titles! but I guess they mean more to me than other people. Today I tried wordless wednesday. I wonder if I was supposed to link it up somehwere….
TA-WEETED the giveaway!!
@blahggy
all of my post titles are ROCKIN’! it would be impossible to choose just one π lol. anyhoo…happy wednesday (and i KNOW that it’s happy because my work day is o.v.e.r.!!)
Attached is my blogpost for the week π
I am so glad that I had the chance to read that post!
Best,
Colleen
Hi all! I have not been following the rules because when I started blogging, my life was so different, reposting just doesn’t make sense to me. There are quite a few titles I am proud of, though I try to keep them short and sweet.
However, you have inspired me to blog every day this week and for that I thank you.
Rules are meant to be broken! π
Got my post up! And I published yesterday’s very late, but would love some input on it! http://iamthemama.com/2010/09/14/i-wish-you-had-read/
It’s Hump day! I hope everyone has had a great week!
What a week! So glad Wednesday is here and I can see Friday just around the corner. Have a terrific afternoon y’all
Ooh – these have been so fun so far!! π
I love the linky idea. Another great job, girls.
I’ve “tweeted” the giveaway!
@savingscorner
Hmmm… a post I’m proud of. I think I’ll link up my chili pepper post. I put a whole lot of work into that one and I have to say I was happy with the results!
http://mommiecooks.com/2010/08/17/beyond-the-basics-chile-peppers/
Ooops … please forgive me, I accidently posted Day 2 article on this linky. I have reposted my article entitled “PROM” for Day 3.
Thanks!

This has been such fun–I have some old posts that I want to delete, they’re so bad, but over all I’ve been pleasantly surprised reading some of my old things!
I looked back at my titles and I don’t know that I am all that good at writing fun or interesting titles but this one struck me and I liked what I’d written in the actual post so here it is: http://digitalscrapbooklessons.com/archives/548 (oops that’s the link…the title is “The Story of Our Lives”…hope you enjoy!!
I was cracking up at your title Francesca! That is HILARIOUS!
The best titled post I ever wrote is definitely this one: Preparing an autistic child for hospitalization and surgery.
I STILL get clicks on that one on a weekly basis from people googling “autism and surgery” or “autism and hospitalization”
I wish I was gifted and witty! I’m just not that creative. Or if I am, it takes me ages to think of a witty blog title.
The title I’m probably most proud of:
