I suddenly realize that when I say those words, I say them with a sense of pride, a tinge of wonder. I say them with a tone that I might use if I could announce to someone that I was a ninja. Or a rock star. I can see how some people might think that this is all just a huge waste of time and effort. But I find immense value in doing this. I feel like I am connecting with people. And I love that there are people out there who find me amusing or maybe even just a little bit clever every now and then.
But most of all, it is so awesome to not just have all these crazy thoughts and ideas bouncing around inside my skull.
Thank you.
Pouring My Art Out 
Thanks (I think) for calling me a garbage receptacle for your thoughts!
Well you can’t take everything I say too literally. It’s not like if I stamp down on your foot the top of your head pops open and I can toss this empty potato-chip bag right in there… can I?
Welcome to the blog ‘hood! I like us being called a tribe, like elroyjones says. I used to call us a blog family, but I think tribe is even better.
We are now officially a tribe.
I would be way too embarrassed to tell people I am a blogger. They might want to read my blog!
That is the catch 22.
Yes, amusing is a very good word for you 🙂
I been called worse.
Except you wouldn’t announce that you were a ninja.
I’m not a blogger, so much as a moron with a blog.
If you are a moron, then most people are the mental equivalent of that green stuff that grows under moist rocks.
I think you have that backwards, or something.
I tend to have most things backwards.
Just like Kriss Kross!

One of those guys is dead now.
It happens.
It happened to Milli Vanilli, too.
Which one died? Milli or Vanilli?
I forget. Does it matter?
No…
Yay! You have people and the people you have, have the same interests as you and they find value in your work. Let me reiterate, YAY! We are a tribe.
Tribe is awesome. Way less creepy than cult. Yay indeed.
You ARE a Blogger. Waste of time? Hell no.
Some people think so. But some people think Bush was a good president… so…
Hear hear! I know exactly what you mean – I love telling people I have a poetry blog. I just feel cool :).
This is the coolest we can be… sitting alone in front of a screen.
Awww…not true! I’m sure you have many other cool things, too.
You caught me. I am just plain jam-packed with cool.
not doubt you are an excellent blogger 🙂
Thank you. I don’t know if I would go that far. I do it. I don’t know how well I do it.
Why shouldn’t you put “blogger” on the same level as “rock star”? You have 900+ groupies.
Nobody ever throws their underwear on stage though.
All you need to do is just ask your followers to take a photo of their underwear and e-mail it to you.
That would hardly be weird at all.
I would call you thought imaginative, thoroughly clever Insane that’s I have going on in my head, I have been luck these past couple of weeks mr delusion as stayed home.
I am a legend in my own mind.
And it’s a pleasure sharing your crazy.
I don’t think I ever described myself as a blogger, I just say that I have a blog.
Though I have occasionally considering calling myself an idiot savant…
hahahahahahahahaha!
Well you are half right… HA!
Thanks, but “savant” by itself looks too small on the business cards…
And not everyone knows what it means.
you’re pushing it with clever you blogging ninja…
I always push it.
ha
You are awesome and responsible for many of my smiles. Hugs
See, that makes me feel important.
GOOD you are important!
Well now I am blushing.
