In case I haven't made it abundantly clear, I am a dork. A big one. And I am very ok with this. It isn't something I try to hide, all of my friends, family and especially Mr. Sparky know this well. So here goes my dorkiness.
I am totally in love with sitemeter. The premise, the results, the different ways I can see who is visiting me, and the cherry on top? - The fact that people ARE visiting me. I never in my wildest dreams thought people would read my drivel, sometimes I don't want to read my drivel. Yet, on a daily basis you people come visit me. And from ALL OVER THE WORLD. While I'm not new to the blog world I am new to the writing in the blog world and sometimes forget this crap is really out there, for THE WHOLE WORLD to read. And that my friends, makes me giggle inside like a little school girl.
I love to see the different locations listed and try to figure out who they are by their blogs. And if you dont' have one, that makes it difficult, but nonetheless exciting! See - big dork. But I'm ok with that. I had a heart attack the first time I saw someone from Minnesota because um, my whole family lives there and I thought, "Egads! They've found me and now I can't tell any of my family secrets - who the black sheep is, who has no eyelashes and so forth". Then stupid me remembers that I have a blogging "friend" if you will, who lives in MN. But the ones that really get me? People from the other side of the world. I love the fact that people can randomly stumble across my blog while I'm sleeping in the cold dark night and they are lounging around on the beach preparing for a surf boarding Santa to come riding in! See the excitement? No?
I never thought I would be useful for others in my situation, whatever that may be, that this would be solely therapeutic for me. Hah, but I love you all and please let me know when you come around. I won't harass or anything, even if you disagree with what I have to say. That doesn't mean you can be snarky(love, love, love that word), it means that I would love to say hi back. So, Hi, in advance.
Thanks to those who read, those who just stroll around to see what's on the shelves and those who are just window shopping. Have a great day.
P.S. - can you believe snarky get's spell checked? Silly dictionary.

Haha! Yes, don't be scared m'dear, it's only me. I used to love looking at my site hits too but haven't in a long time. Especially after I stopped publicizing my site so now I don't get all those crazy googlers showing up. Do you ever go back to MN to visit?
I'm in MN too...don't be scared, I don't think I know you? :)
I haven't been back since my grandmother's funeral in 2004. That's the year we got married and haven't found the time/money to go back. I miss my family and have even tried to get Mr. Sparky to move there, but I don't think I could handle the winters. Maybe if we ever get out there, we can do lunch!
