lurker friends!

thanks so much to everyone who took the time to read yesterday's long, emotional, hot ass mess of a post ;) i don't know what came over me - y'all know i'm not usually such a debby downer.

but as a few of you pointed out, YAY for the lurkers! de-lurking is de-lovely. i knew i had a handful of regular readers, and from the traffic on the site, i could see that others were reading too. so it was really fabulous to read such nice, supportive words from folks who hadn't commented before, or don't do so on a regular basis.

and i do truly appreciate hearing from you all - especially those who have stories similar to mine. as trish pointed out, it IS nice to know that i'm not some freak who's alone in my situation. no, i'm just a freak. ha!

and if you're a lurker who hasn't had a chance to comment, i'd love to hear from you - even if it's just a "hi" or "you're a nut". well, okay, maybe i would prefer something positive. :)

  2. Aren't stats the best?

    I always wonder who the hell is reading my blog, too.

  3. I love reading your blog. I look forward to reading a handful or so blogs each day and they're what get me through work!

    Yesterday's blog about your dad was very touching, and with today's tendency to marry and re-marry as quickly as some people change underwear, I'm sure there were many readers who could relate.

    Thanks for sharing.

  5. I just read your last blog. Thank you so much for sharing that. It's hard sometimes to put yourself out there, even if it's semi anonymous.

    P.s. I found you through wemo;)
