Nov 1, 2012

this one's going out to my blog girl...

it's sort of crazy how someone can reach out, using only black and white letters typed onto a screen, and truly reach you.  When I started blogging, I had absolutely no idea that there was even the possibility of forging a real friendship with someone via the blog.  No idea.  Then one day, "Girls Love Fried Pickles" commented on my blog.  And then Girls Love Fried Pickles sent me an email saying she nominated me as a blog she reads + a liebster nomination, and I was so damn flattered that this kick ass chick was saying she reads my blog, that I started reading Her blog.  And then Dusty, as I discovered the GLFP's "real" name was, replied via email here and there to a comment I'd leave, and I'd respond, and then one day, we responded back and forth FIFTY-SIX times, to one blog comment.  And the rest, is history.  I rarely go a day without hearing from this woman, and if I don't hear from her- I send Her a message, just to check in.

It's my great pleasure to have met you Dusty.  The women you have connected together and with, via blogging, is nothing short of spectacular.  You have a great gift, and I greatly admire it.  I think you are the bomb, diggity, bomb-bomb. No dot.com about it.  You're the real thing girl.  ;)

to my "blog girl, would be home girl, if we had the same home town"... 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA!!!

Dusty is who connected you and I you know..

She's the best. one day I will sit on a front porch with her and talk about people as they walk by, I WILL.

I want to sit on a front porch with all of you girls - Dusty, M, and Shay. Seriously... you all are the best. I love Raven so very much. She causes me (and my mom) to laugh just about every day. And when she's not making me laugh, I wonder where she is. Crazy how blogland will do that to you. Happy birthday Raven!

So this caused me a big lump in my throat and almost just almost a cry spell. I love you! You know that and next year you and I ate going to meet and have more fun than rabbits during mating season.
