[...] with the New Year approaching that I should try to generate a new post. I’ve got nothing but pineapple friends, so I thought “Hey, I’ll just post an inspirationalish New Yearsy kind [...]

I had totally forgotten about the knock-knock phase! Made me laugh out loud. (lol didn’t seem strong enough!) Spot on.

Is said regular then going to be all “Lucy says the same shit over and over.”

LOL. Oh my God, you make me laugh.

You’re great, Lucy. I love everything you write. Do not be anxious and anxiety-ridden. Although, I totally understand. I haven’t written anything new since Friday.

Total blogger failure! That’s five whole days! Unacceptable!

But. I am like in a coma over here and can’t string two coherent thoughts together. Oh well. Hopefully, no one will banish me from the bloggysphere.

Keep on truckin’, Lucy!

Pascal: Thanks for stopping by. I find your advice intriguing.
Wren: you’re so sweet. I always read your blog too, even if I don’t comment. I particularly like your political posts–you’re so good at pointing a find point on things.
Brooke: I knew I could count on you to love the pineapple joke. Gwennie has a whole bunch more to tell you when she sees you again

what’s wrong with that knock knock joke? i think it’s hilarious! then again, i often giggle uncontrollably when i even look at a pineapple, so maybe that has something to do with it…

Lucy, I love your blog. I love your words. You make me smile, and you often make me think. Your style is just you — it varies with your moods — and it makes your writing authentic and compelling. I’m one of those who stop by often but don’t often comment — not because I didn’t like what you wrote, but because I really didn’t have much to add. I blog too, and while I get a decent number of hits each day, hardly anyone comments. I try not to take it as a judgement of my writing or my subject matter.

The fun thing about blogging is that you can write about anything you want to. Whatever rings your chimes. It’s a wonderful way to put all those thoughts that float around in our heads into coherent order for ourselves, but also for anyone who happens by. Perhaps they’ll get something out of what we’ve written, and perhaps they won’t. And maybe, if we’re lucky, they’ll say something and give us a little lift.

Just keep on keepin’ on, OK? I’d miss your wry sense of humor and your flashes of wisdom if you stopped.

I fully intend to comment on this post but am still reading CRSE’s comment.

As I am only recently drawn here by a burgeoning intrigue born from your curiously kind words from elsewhere, I feel ill-equipped to treat the evolution of your writing just yet.

Bear with me as I catch up.

There is great value in anonymity. When all else fails, start the whole thing over and just don’t tell anyone. It’s an exhilarating exercise.

Crse: Wow. That was a seriously long comment. There is certainly a lot of blobxiety going around these days, huh? I love the random unstructured hilarity of your blog, and like Tyler, I envy the number of comments you get. It’s funny, after I wrote this blog, I read Chris’s, and he talks about writing struggles too. It’s in the air!

Tyler: That was lovely…worth the wait. Blogus Operandus was my favorite part too. I thought it was a clever coinage. And you’ll be amused to know that I think of myself as kind of an emotive mess on my blog lately, and I look at your writing and think Tyler’s so smart, and I look at Crse’s and think, she’s so funny. I guess we all worry about our read out there in the real.

AG: Thanks for your sympathies on this one. It means a lot coming from you because your blog is so effing great!

Did no one love the knock-knock, pineapple (Gwennie’s actual contribution to the genre) joke? It was my second favorite part, after blogus operandus.

I know where this is coming from. The ex-factor reads my blog and I loathe that. I loathe that I cannot talk about what I really want to talk about. Largely because I don’t think he should know things. Ugh.

In time, this will pass and you’ll get to a place where you can again talk about anything. Give it time . That’s what I am doing.

Big hug!
