First Of All,

thank you. I really appreciated your comments, some of which surprised me. I have lurkers!

And while I haven't looked at my stats, I'm sure that if there's a high point, it's because of all you commenters. Which brings me to:

You like me! You really like me! (Apologies to Sally F.)

It seems a little like vouja dé. I feel like I've done this sort of "zOMG, do you laaaiiiiiiike me?" thing before, and that troubles me. 

Because really, à la base, and excuse my French, isn't blogging supposed to be about the blogger rather than the audience? (Here's where you chime in "Why yes, Alison, yes!")

And so I guess I will start thinking of myself and what I want to say. If you want to read my words and thoughts, then that's great. If you don't, that's fine. I think I'll keep writing for ME in this space. If I move from here, I'll let you know.

Glad you aren't leaving and looking forward to reading more of your thoughts, ideas, words, rants, admirations, and what ever else you want to share.

I check on your blog regularly - unfortunately, with today's busy schedules, I don't always comment. Keep up the good work!

It is supposed to be a form of self-expression, so express away!!

[Pumpkin]

Perfect! :) I love to read whatever you have to write.

[Betty C.]

Indeed, we do get caught up with what readers think, don't we?

I'm trying to think of blogging as a fun thing to do again. We'll see where it takes me...and you...

[gorillabuns]

YES! this is supposed to be about you! not who is reading or not.

that being said, i'm glad you are sticking around.
