Hey heathervescent!
I luv u, will u go out with me!

There, you now have another nerdy date request. lol.

I'm just an occassional lurker, with not too much to say. I enjoy reading your blog, and the others as they are linked to. Sometimes I come straight here, othertimes, I link from b.la.

Thanks for listening

Sometimes it seems as if you're referring to things that are happening to you IRL that maybe those who do not know you in that way may not understand. Not that there's anything wrong with that-- it's just hard to comment on it.

And, I can't remember if I mentioned this, but I am loving your Heart's Desire series. It resonates within me as true.

Hey Heather! A blast from the past! Think back to early 1992 - where were you? Perhaps dressing in your lovely navy suit and working as a page???

Hope you're doing well.

Emily (not the singing one!)

I guess I qualify as a lurker around here of late. I'm sorry 'bout that. I dig whatever you write, your energy, your openness.

I have the same feelings when I blog. Last month I wrote from the heart about reconnecting with my daughter after five years and it gets linked by a very popular blogger and BAM! my hits and comments go strato. Then all of a sudden I'm feeling that I HAVE TO write something that keeps those new readers coming back for more of my deathless prose. Something IMPORTANT. ENGAGING.

I got over that real quick. My blog is me and more likely than not it's gonna be about yardwork last Saturday or a dogwalk on Sunday or a bike project during the week or whatever reptile or rodent one of the cats dragged in. I never got into this to be popular and I never judge a blog by the number of its comments. The traffic you get is because you got the verve and know how to swing it.

Two last words -- no, three... and a semicolon: DEATH VALLEY; NOVEMBER

Hey everyone. Thanks. Yeah Will - Death Valley. Thanks Yoko. Heart's Desire is fun to write. Let me know if you use it and how it works. Emily, I think I still have my name tag. And believe it or not, I have Joe Heaps Nelson's current email address. And macphotog, thanks for the date request. :)

Observer

Your blog is sometimes insightful and interesting, but its egocentric nature is off-putting. You want to be famous, but for what? Being relatively intelligent but self-absorbed? You want people to PayPal you if so inclined? Puhleeze!

heathervescent

Um, actually, I _don't_ want to be famous. You've jumped to a conclusion, there. I want to be the best person I can become. I want to inspire other people to be the best they can be as well. That's why I live the life I do, and why I write about it. It's inspiring some people to actually follow their dreams, instead of dissing people who dare to.
