I LURKED AND LURKED AND LURKED for YEARS. I'm getting better though. Also, I read SO MANY blogs that sometimes I feel like if I left a comment on all of them that's all I would ever do.

Seriously (SRSLY!) I’m proud to say I’m a comment whore too; as you say, if you don’t want validation, why not scribble in a private diary instead of having a public blog? Although lately I haven’t felt like conversing in my comments; I’m not sure why. When I do feel like it, I’m sure I’ll start doing it again.

I decided against a blogroll this time around, though. It always became some kind of weird popularity contest (I’d get emails: “I linked you! Now you can link me! Hey! Why aren’t you linking me? Don’t you like me?”) OMG. Became a huge pain.

I do enjoy commenting when I have something to say and the time to say it. If I don’t, then I don’t say anything.

But this bit me in the ass. My son’s fiance recently started a blog and so did my daughter, about the weddings, about their lives, etc. I guess I commented one time more on Lucy’s blog than on Cory’s blog and Cory got her feelings hurt.

OMG again. Ai-yi-yi! *laughs* Now I have to make sure I comment *every* time on both their blogs.

AUGH! It’s so complicated. :)


See? That’s why I only have one kid. No worries about making sure things are even!
I’m pretty stingy with my blogroll this time around. Since this isn’t an anonymous blog, I have to be careful to whom I link, lest friends and family let their imaginations run wild, if you catch my drift.

Not sure why, but oh well, here it is!

So, I’m thinking of reading the Harry Potter books. I realize your probably not a fan but do you recommend them anyway?

HUGS!

You know, grace, I’ve never read any of these “Harry Potter” books, but I’m guessing they’re pretty good from the way I hear people talking about them. Maybe I’ll give them a shot. :)

I'm a comment-and-run type, so now I will try to remember to come back for More Erica. <em>And who wouldn't want More Erica? No one, that's who. That's like a triple negative, isn't it? What I mean is everyone wants More Erica. Get it?</em> Oh, dear. I’m a comment-and-run type, so now I will try to remember to come back for More Erica.

And who wouldn’t want More Erica? No one, that’s who. That’s like a triple negative, isn’t it? What I mean is everyone wants More Erica. Get it?

But in my defense haven't we ALL been wondering who hooks up w/ who for the last 7 years??? And then I read the book and was very happy how things turned out, and why Snape turned out to be a good guy after all. And for those who haven't read the book and only have watched the movies, PLEASE read the books!! You'll get so much more out of them, they are a wonderful series-I hope they do the last movie justice that's all I'm sayin'! <em>So, it's not bad enough that you read the ending first?

I went to your place and left two (!!) comments for you. Would have only been one, but I’m dumb and forgot to log in first.

I’m going to do my best to reply to comments, but again, I’m really lazy, so don’t be surprised if I stink at it.
