thank you

i spent the weekend helping my best friend pack up her home to move.  At some point, while i was sifting through the massive piles of (in my estimation) junk she’s accumulated, the site meter on this blog ticked over 100,000 hits.

i just wanted to pop out a quick thank you to my readers:  those of you who read me regularly, those who only read me occasionally, and those who have ever even popped into this rather odd little mix of the things that spill from my head.  You’ve all given me a place to be.

An additional thanks to the people who comment here.  All writers like to be read.  The feedback i’ve received from you since i started this blog a year and a half ago has been unbelievable.  i absolutely adore the interaction.

And to you … the reason i started this blog, the inspiration for a great deal of what i’ve written here, the perpetual well of emotion into which i tap, even when you’re so very distant.  You’ve been far more than a muse.  i can never … ever … thank you enough.

Por siempre.

  1. Ah, you’re welcome, elise. I read you for a long time before striking up a conversation. (I’m the quiet sort). I’m glad I did.

  10. Like Beth, I read your stuff a long time before commenting. I do that with everyone simply to get a more indepth flavor for the writing. I don’t recall who said (and I paraphrase) that some writing should merely be tasted and discarded, some slowly savored and some thoroughly enjoyed and fully digested. In that respect, thank you for being enjoyable and ’savorsome.’ Each visit is pure pleasure.

  12. I just found out yesterday when he popped in to comment on one of my posts. I think he’s a little nervous about going pro.

  13. Lou,

    Well, thank you for telling me. i’ll email him and make sure he’s okay with my naughty little link popping up in his comments. Love you both …
