nothing to see here

i've been doing some blog surfing today, reading blogs i've never read before and now i'm wondering why any one would even waste their time reading mine!!? man, i'm so boring and don't really have anything important to say. i feel so insignificant now.

the reason i started this blog was to have an outlet. i didn't care if anyone ever came to read it. however, people have come and they do read and i have met some of the most wonderful people. some of them i have even grown to love and consider them my friends. they are amazing people that i would have never met were it not for this blog.

but i don't understand why any of you find me interesting enough to come back over and over again. i see the stuff that is out there and it's amazing. i don't have anything important to say, nothing deep or profound. maybe i make you laugh once in a while, but other than that, there's not much here. it's just me blabbing about my unimportant life and thoughts. (sidenote: i am NOT fishing for compliments here!!!) i just see what's out there and i realize, i am not unique, hell, i am not even a good writer, infact, i suck and i know it! i am not entertaining. so, i wonder why anyone would read my blog on a regular basis.

i will continue to write here, even if no one came to read, because it's a great outlet for me. but i'm grateful you do stop by and i am even more grateful for the support you have given me when i've written about something that is troubling me. your words and emails have been invaluable and have given me so much to think about. some of you have even written to me with your own experiences and it's been so helpful to me. words can not express how much your words have meant. so, although i didn't start this thing to make friends or with the intention of anyone reading it, i am glad that you do stop by and read and even take the time to leave comments, or send me emails and i hope you continue to do so, although, i'll never understand why you do!

Actually, I think you do write well....you express yourself well....and that makes you interesting to read. Sometimes it just as simple as "oh yeah..I can relate to that".....other times it's like, "wow, what is happening here?!"....then again, it might be, "oh, I wish I was more like that!"
Anyway...I find it endlessly fascinating to read about what's going on in peoples lives...and you write about just that!
Don't question yourself....just write.....we'd be lost without you!

I found your site quite recently through Dick from Demented and Sad's blog. Since I first read it, I've been hooked. I can't really say why, but certain blogs just reel me right in.

All I can say is, keep it up =)

Well first of all you are a very good writer and I've told you that many times. Your blog is the only blog I read, it's one of the first things I do when I sign on to my computer. It's just I know you pretty well, and it's nice to know what's going on. Hey I'm your neighbor...you'd probably read mine too, right?

You're real, woman. You're not blogging for journalistic purposes. You're just trying to give us, your adoring public, a peek into your warped, twisted mind... and we love it. Now when you start getting all artistic or political I may have to put you on my ignore list...

About Y
My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
