You Like Me!...You REALLY Like Me!
Aah, the thrill of comments and email!
I come home after a hard day’s humiliating toil work and open up my Outlook inbox powered by Incredimail. Oooh! Here’s my little icon sheep, baa-ing at me, informing me I have mail!
Goody!
I sit and watch the small, blue window up in the right hand corner:
Connecting....
Receiving....1 out of 34, 2 out of 34, 3 out of 34 (and so on...)
I’m all revved up with anticipation....Feedback? Personal letters? Yes?
Messages Received.
I pour through them with a feverish excitement.

You guys really know how to hurt a girl don’t ya?
[update] Wow. Do some of you really not know when someone is kidding around? To those of you who sent me emails that were...a touch rude, let me try to get this through to you: Although I really do like to get email and comments, if you, for one second think I actually get upset and hurt when you don’t, you are unbelievably wrong. I actually laughed at myself when 30 out of 34 emails turned out to be Spam.
For those of you whom I have no idea who you are but you sent me an email, jesting back....you crack me up. (Michael S--glad you still like me even if I cuss too much here...funny, cause I’ve actually worked hard to tone it down. What’s a girl to do? Oh, and yes, your email did make my day.)
So, for the ones who didn’t get it, let’s try this one last time: Joking. Kidding. Poking fun at a situation. The day I take this blog THAT seriously is the day I shut it down. Now, can we all go back to having a good time? Thank you.
That is all.
