    I’m standing still; naked

    By bigpumpkin | December 1, 2007

    For the longest time, I’ve been wanting to know how to install those little reader faces on my site just so I can justify to myself that nobody really reads the crap that comes out of my head. So I can ramble on with my head in the clouds and bitch about that tart up my corridor; some days I just need to release overflowing crap and have the urgent need to talk to someone about my vaginal problems and how I did something bad (shhhh……).

    I was overjoyed when car freak birthday boy’s Mama told me I didn’t have to PAY to get those faces on my site. What? You mean they’re free? Holy cow! She guided me at a step by step pace because oh boy, did I need it. And voila! Thank you, woman! Muaksies xx

    Then.

    After installing the code and refreshing my site…….

    I saw ALL YOUR FACES!!!

    And fainted.

    From the ghostly lack of comments that I have been getting, I honestly thought I had who I knew I had reading me. Which got me wondering if you all out there are just plain shy or into voyeurism. *quickly clasps hands to cover my private bits* Hello? Hello. Hello! Welcome to my blog…..how much exactly do you……err…..know me? Or of me? I know, I know….by mere virtue of having a blog, I have already unconsciously made that decision that I belong to the public and am in control of how much I give. But, but……I suddenly feel naked. I……I…..am becoming…..shy.

    OK. Enough of that crap.

    For those of you whom I have not met nor been to your blog before, you can be assured that I will be coming over in the next few days because I do want to get to know who reads me. Please don’t shy away just because your face shows up now. I am good at the lasso and will seize you back. For those of you who have been here regularly, thank you. I like loyalty *smile*

    So, my friends! If you want to continue being a silent reader, by all means. No pressure. But for those of you who’d like to get a little dialogue going, I’m all ready because I’m friggin bored at home. And I’m lonely. Why do you think I have a blog? I’m not suggesting that any of you are that, of course. To each his own.

    Thank you all so much for coming here.

    I mean it.

    ps - Now that I’m an expert at putting up faces, who wants to know? Don’t be shy now….

      Aiya, I don’t think you need to see my face-lah. You already know who I am, right? After all, my toddler’s face always stare back at you whenever you are at Blog Catalog.
