How Do I Love Thee?
Since Robyn has declared that today is to be a Bloggin' Lovefest, I wanted to take a few minutes and let some people know how much I love them. I wish I could say something about everyone in the blogosphere, but alas, I just don't have days to wax poetic about them all. With that in mind, here are a few special bloggers (in alphabetical order) that I adore:
The Bran. Since I worship and adore her literally, how could I leave Bran off the list? I still remember when, just a few weeks into the blogging world, she e-mailed me and offered to make me a skin. I thought it was so sweet of her and have been part of her cult ever since.
Christine. The person who actually got me started in all of this crazy blogging nonsense. She helped come up with the domain, installed my MT, made the first skin, and hosted me. Well, after working together for a couple of years, it was the least she could do, right? ;-) Anyway, she's one of the few people that can actually appreciate the insanity in my life and I'm thankful for her.
Erika. I've always been impressed by Erika's blog and her wonderful designs. Her posts are always interesting (be they funny, sad, or just a bit nutty) and her blog was one of the ones that I've read since before I began my own. I appreciate her honesty, her warmth, and her friendship.
Kristine. There is so much I could say about the ever-wonderful Kristine. She has always patiently answered my MT questions and even IMed with me through my first upgrade. She is a kind, kind soul who took me under her wing and I am a better person for it. She is sweet, she is passionate, she is smart, she is funny, and no one could be a better person than her. Plus, she's the one who got me hooked on all those online tests. ;-)
Michele. I remember reading Michele at the time of the WTC disaster and her writing would usually move me to tears. Rarely have I met anyone would could write so well be it a funny post, a heart-wrenching post, or just an every day, run of the mill post. I even remember getting drunk and crying a bit over her spitting incident post because I was so proud of her. If I could be any blogger, I would probably wish to be her.
Sheila. Ah, my own little tart. Sheila sent me an e-mail mentioning that she had been watching my blog (and me) from afar and really enjoyed it. I can't remember the last time I felt so flattered. We know IM pretty regularly and she's always good for a bit of tartness to get me going in the morning. She has a penchant for pin-ups that is completely understandable and crafts some of the most gorgeous blogsets out of them (check out Tart Graphics if you don't believe me). She is witty and deliciously interesting and I just adore her.
