I know one, it's really funny, but it's written for a woman in spanish (from Argentina)

Title: "The tragedy of not being a model or a blonde girl"
link: www.todos-somos-fashion.blogspot.com/

and my site is bromohv.blogspot.com

I would say one is Miss Doxie:

www.missdoxie.com/index.html

I'm not even a dachshund fan (and, fear not, her stories are not necessarily canine-specific) but her narrative style can be seriously funny at times.

  love funny - no matter the subject (although - with three dawgs of my own, i AM partial to the canine humor!) Thanks

While I remember, you might also enjoy:

www.threadbared.com-- two clever blog writers take turns taking the horrifying fashion patterns of the past and adding creative commentary

And StitchyMcYarnpants-
www.stitchymcyarnpants.com/moks06/
This focuses on past terrors of knit, crochet, etc. and demonstrates why things like knitted jumpsuits were NOT necessarily the best of ideas

  are you telling me knitted jumpsuits are no longer in? shit. i have to go change...

For funny dog posts: justonesheep.blogspot.com/2007/06/my-name-is-nita.html

and justonesheep.blogspot.com/2007/06/puppy-behaviour-problems.html

I blog at threat-assessment.blogspot.com about crime, threats, court trials and some people have written me to tell me they laughed out loud at some of the things I say. But really, the blog isn't about being funny and you have to read through a lot of stuff you might not be interested in to find the funny bits. And it's only funny if you have a weird sense of humour like me.

[reply]
1. 7/26/07
  
  thewishfulwriter
  
  excellent recommendations - thank you. trials, crime, etc is also another of my reading interests, so your blog fits well into the mix. Don't get me started on my infatuation with Nancy Grace's show....i carry a lot of shame surrounding that.

[reply]

  you're right, it TOTALLY counts. Hell, i laughed at your reply. which means i'll be heading to your blog. pronto. how much do i already love your friend who nominated you for girl blogger. excellent.

  welp, i find reading witty banter penned by women a great read - because i identify with a lot of it. It really isn't meant to be exclusionary as I love funny men and women. It was just a quick way for me to see what other funny ladies are out there. That's all

I came across this blog a few months ago through blogcatalog. It is still one of my favorite blogs to read although considering I am not a mother or a woman I cant really explain why I enjoy reading this blog so much. The author just has a way of cracking me up.

Hi wishful,

Try my blog. Not written by a woman, but written for a woman, my wife, who works long days at a computer and sometimes needs a good laugh. She's since passed it on to all her workmates, including her boss(!), who cornered me at a work BBQ and confessed that he is now an avid reader.

Hey Marier - I will definitely check it out...how cool is it that you give your wife something to laugh at when she gets home. Love it.

If you remember "The Golden Girls" on TV, then you'll love my blog.

It's about 4 women (one is the mother to one)and one has been a boarder for years, and I am the newcomer. We're all in our mid-50's or older. Two are ex-cops (so you about their humor), one is a cancer survivor... three are photographers, and one is a writer.

Add to that, we're all trying to carve out a little farm, with horses, sheep, chickens, dogs, someday a steer. Now, here's the twist... we own about 10 acres of tumbleweeds in the middle of a SW Utah desert (Mormon country), and we're not Mormon...

Some posts are funny, some are sad, and some, well, their just kind of their to glue it all together.

I have two blogs that I think are entertaining (they are for me at least!)

One is about my daily struggles with my unemployment... written in a lighthearted, funny way to address the day-to-day problems of having way too much time on your hands with nothing to do. activeleisure.wordpress.com

My other one is fairly new... it provides anecdotal stories about life with my hubby and the funny and oftentimes frustrating differences between men & women. thehubbydiaries.wordpress.com
