It’s a bad day. Saturday’s usually are. I’m looking for a reason to laugh. Perhaps you wouldn’t mind delurking so I can smile and feel sure that the one thing I’ve managed to do correctly is get people to come visit my new blog???
I have been reading you for a long time, and was thrilled to read about your new blog. As soon as I saw the post about it on Alas, A Blog, I was over here like a shot, and added your RS feed.
I don’t have much to say, except that I’m here and I enjoy your insights.
I delurked to give love to your post on urine and compost, but I second or third or something the statement that I updated my blog feed reader as soon as I saw your update.
It is now officially my very favorite thing in the world about blogging that people are saying that they love my ‘urine post’. I LOVE (i mean seriously LOVE LOVE) being known as the “urine blogger”. that makes me laugh just typing it.
G’morning. Reading your blog from a research station in Antarctica – very much appreciate your insight, humor, joy, and connection to the real world. (Mostly the ‘news’ we get down here is from Fox or military radio.) I like the new format – and loved the urine post! Thank you thank you thank you.
I’m going to share a cute kid story, because cute kid stories make everything better. This happened with the kid I tutor.
me: so is there anything that you’re interested in learning about?
adorable 8-year-old girl: Umm… when everyone everyone like in Boston and Jamaica and everywhere everywhere was a really really baby baby baby, who did they come out of?
me:…are you asking me about the origins of the human race?
adorable 8-year-old girl: yup!
hi! i’ve been reading for ages, through a couple of site changes! i think i’ve commented once or twice before under my proper name…anyway, i LOVE your writing!
I went to bed early last night (as in 9:30, usually it’s more about midnight-1 AM), got up early enough to see the sun rise and read some really freaking great jokes and hellos and stories!!!! I don’t know which is better, frankly!
i already delurked and I have delurked a few times before
in oakland, for now.
still loving your writing it always opens a window in an unexpected place, or makes me feel you understand something about me i never knew was shared with anyone..

it’s good to have friends.

You know I switched my feed over to the new site as soon as you posted the change.
December 6th, 2008 at 1:36 pm #
Not such a great day for me either, but I’m here too. And I love your header image.
December 6th, 2008 at 1:48 pm #
Hi there!
Saturdays often make me sad…. in need of laughter.
Love the new place.
December 6th, 2008 at 1:54 pm #
How ’bout I tell you a joke?
What do you get when you cross an elephant and a rhinoceros?
Eleph-ino!
Or is it only funny when I tell it out loud?
December 6th, 2008 at 1:55 pm #
I take the blame for that joke. I screwed up my web-onym.
December 6th, 2008 at 2:03 pm #
I switched my google reader to pick you when you posted the change! Lovin the new place.
December 6th, 2008 at 2:31 pm #

Reading! Valuing! Here!
December 6th, 2008 at 2:37 pm #
I’m here! And the PH blogroll now links to this place, not your old site.

Mostly a boring day for me, though I did spend some time reading a good book.
Lots of love!
December 6th, 2008 at 4:34 pm #
Love your new blog. Been lurking here practically ever since you put it up.
December 6th, 2008 at 5:16 pm #
Hello! I recently started reading your blog regularly. Before I would come across it here and there. Really thought-provoking.
December 6th, 2008 at 5:32 pm #

December 6th, 2008 at 7:01 pm #
i always read! thanks so much for writing.
December 6th, 2008 at 7:02 pm #
Hi! I totally read and love your blog. I’m afraid I can’t top the Antarctica reader, though; I’m just another North American.
and I also loved your urine post.

Had to search a bit to find the RSS feed (don’t mind me, I’m a little dense …), but I made it.
December 6th, 2008 at 7:44 pm #
I love the peepee blog! And dropping by to add some news too. I really like that feature.
And big hugs and kisses for you, one of the best bloggers on the internetz!
December 6th, 2008 at 9:00 pm #
Okay, a reason to laugh. How about a terrible joke?
Two muffins are baking in the oven. The first muffin says to the second muffin, “Wow, it’s getting hot in here.”
The second muffin says, “Holy crap! A talking muffin!”
December 6th, 2008 at 11:49 pm #
I’m here!
But I’m still hoping for a full-text RSS feed — pretty please?

Hi there!
#waves#
Not a lot to say, just that I came over here from the old blog, and really enjoy reading your work. It’s very mind-opening.
December 7th, 2008 at 4:35 am #
I’m here and reading and I love you…I’m in Canada, it’s not quite Antarctica but we do have seals…although they get clubbed to death…

I have not used the icy cold outdoors to wake up the senses in a really long time, I forgot how well it works. better than coffee!
December 7th, 2008 at 6:11 am #
