Misty Eyed
August 18th, 2010
Thank you all for your sympathetic and empathetic comments on my last post. I wrote it hoping for catharsis so I could let it go (it worked, fyi) and ended up feeling so much closer to my tribe of readers.
That got me thinking about how great this whole blogging gig is. I know so many of you that I’d never have the opportunity to know in my real life. I’d never know so much about you, nor you about me, if we didn’t share this desire to publicly recount our exploits. If I was 10 or 15 years older I wouldn’t be anxiously awaiting the arrival of Baby Jess/Torsten. I wouldn’t have fallen hopelessly in love with Temerity Jane over the Craigslist ad for her fridge. I wouldn’t know about Port and Cheez-Its being a delightful combination if it wasn’t for Alice. I wouldn’t have such awesome Besties like Donna and Shelly. (I’d still have Becky, though. Thank gawd.) I wouldn’t laugh at Swistle’s posts that are so insightful and funny. I wouldn’t think daily about how right The New Girl was about how hard a baby and a toddler are together. I wouldn’t be able to watch everyone’s children get older and cuter.
So forgive me for being so misty-eyed, but I just love y’all so damn much.

Aww. Now I’m all misty-eyed too. Right back atcha!
You know what gets me misty is thinking about how we might all still be here when our kids are going to college and getting married and having kids of their own! *MIST*
We’ll be our own little tribe of grandma bloggers some day.
You big softie!
Hee! Hopelessly in love. I better sell some more stuff to keep this going.
What a great post to us readers! Thanks for getting all choked up over us, darlin’ lol.
