[...] Uh-oh, I thought. That’s never good. I stood up straight and raised my eyebrows in response. Please, God, don’t let this be about my blog! [...]

I don’t know you, but by reading your blog, I know a lot of your experiences, because a lot of what you share is universal. Weird, yes, especially when real life meets blog life, but we’re glad that you’re doing it!

I write a column for the paper I work for and sometimes I can’t believe the crap I shared. Then some woman will come up and tell me how much she enjoyed it and how she hopes I’ll keep writing. I haven’t actually written anything in awhile because of a couple criticisms, but I blog as a place to get out that creative writing “gift” (?) I have.

Not too many people have discovered my blog, that I know of. I know at least one person at my office did….I’m not too careful about hiding it. I’m not going to let anyone dictate what I put on my own blog though. They already do that with my newspaper column.

Amen, Mrs. Chicken.

It takes tremendous courage to remain open, to just be raw and naked. There is power here. Power to connect with others and make a difference by being human in your special way. You are very special, and I’m glad you write and share your life. You make a difference in my life.

Today I had to photoshop a picture of a pile of dirt in my driveway so that it would be somewhat impossible for someone to identify where I live.

I have been outed by people in my real life and it’s always quite jarring. I have a friend who has somehow found my blog and honestly, I don’t like it. I feel like she is watching now and that I need to censor.

Thank you for you raw, honest posts.

The last 3 paragraphs were so full of truth, I almost welled up. That’s good enough for me too.

Amen to that! Here’s to outed underwear, girl. I know this horror of which you speak, but I have finally reached a point where I’m more proud than embarrassed. That’s a really good feeling.

I kind of shudder at the thought of that happening to me. I think it’s why I’m as neurotically careful as I am. Or well, try to be. I’m glad it didn’t freak you out though.

Nothing to say but thanks for being in this town. I’m glad to have met you.

I love when people comment on my blog and say, “I feel less alone.” I think it’s the best compliment.

And you’ve done that for me many, many times.

I have found comfort in many of your posts! You have definitely touched me! Thanks!
