That's happened to me with a couple people I thought I was following, then I realized I read their blogs in the blog menu all the time, but never actually followed them. lol
And I guess I don't feel so dumb about the Zelda thing any more, seems like that tripped up a lot of people. Still, once I got back home, I did the same thing you and your brother did with the Sheng Long edition, and I thought "you got me again. You clever bastards." I wasn't mad, but I was sorely disappointed. lol
