Suckin' It Up & Sucking Up
So I've really been slacking on the blog thing! I've been going through all my old posts and trying to save them and archive them onto disk so if, god forbid, anything happens to blogger or if I decide to finally get my own domain and hosting (thinking about it!), that I can move everything with a minimum of fuss.
In the process, I rediscovered a lot of old comments and people that I miss. Man, I got boring and everybody left! Some of my old posts were fun! And I know some people don't comment anymore because of word verification, but, screw you too. I don't like to delete spam. I'll deal without the comments then, thanks. I am genuinely hurt by that, by the way, but it won't stop me from liking you guys and visiting your sites.
Anyway. I'm very grateful for all the people who've shown me how incredibly kind strangers can be. I was especially stunned when I really realized how many people take the time to let me know how much they care when I post my depressing posts. Which happens more often than I realized. I noticed it happening especially back in August when I was upset about losing my mother. I apologize for being a depressing little twit sometimes and again, am eternally grateful, for the way you all just accept me as I am. Sniff. Sniff.
So take the time to comment and say hey if you're still here and reading and just aren't saying much because I've gotten boring. I know I've removed some links, but I still visit a lot of them- my links list was just getting too long. I might make it long again, we'll have to see.
As I was saying, take a minute and say hello. Let me know you're out there and that you're reading. Much love to all of you. Let me say thanks to each of you.

well gee... i think i'm still here... but i don't know. i might be missing.
maybe that's why i haven't written on my blog! :)
i'm here and reading.
i just don't comment much anywhere because i'm rackin' up the posts over at BA. hee.
Hey, Courtney. I'm still reading. Have been all along. :-) With the comments, I've noticed a huge downturn in my site, too, as well as in many other sites. I think it might be the holidays. People had also been posting less. I think blogging just hasn't been as much of a priority as it had been in the summer/fall. As for word verification, Blogger's is actually not bad; some other systems require numbers, or a combination of numbers and letters. Letters alone are much easier. I, too, have thought of moving my blog off Blogger so I can use Word Press, but I haven't done so yet. I'm afraid no one would follow, and I'd lose all my readers! Glad my link made the cut, by the way. With Blogrolling, I keep adding site after site, and then I have to go pare it down again.
You are not a depressing little twit. Ever.
And you didn't get boring!
I love you, twit.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

Hey, you're not boring. Sure, sometimes your posts are few and far between, but they're still fun to read! We keep coming back, don't we?
Thanks for sticking around.
You're welcome. I am a pretty awesome reader, huh?
Chicken, Y&O, Cassidy, & Carly-Ann- I was pretty sure all of you were still hanging around. Which I'm relieved to hear and, as I said, SO grateful. I love you guys so much. You're bloody fantastic.
Marie- I love that you pop in here. Thank you so much for taking the time to read it, even when it sucks.
Anna- I love your blog and haven't even thought about removing the link yet. I like reading what you have to say about the craft of writing and I'm immensely flattered that you still come by here. Thank you.
Brian- Is this my first comment from you? No, wait, I think you commented like six months ago. Or something like that. Ah, Brian, you know I adore you. Thanks for piping up for once.
I love you too!
