New Bloggies!!!

Okay, I realize this blog has been completely introverted, introspective, intro-everything and it's been all about me for a really long time. I'm not sure that will change much, since this is well, a quiet corner of refuge for me. However, I am creeping out more and more and slowly finding bright halos of light out *there* in the blogosphere. Thanks to various comments and other bloggers who have dropped by, I have come into contact with a whole other side to this wonderful world of writers. I'd like to give thanks to three in particular who have given me a breath of fresh air these past two days...

Thanks Bunny for the delightful reading. The article you linked to on failed buttsex had me rolling. It is for some, not so much for others. The article is indeed a gem.

EmmaK stumbled across my blog somehow, and I've been enjoying reading the lastest posts from Mommy Has A Headache. I thoroughly enjoy her writing thus far, and look forward to catching up on past archives, as well as future posts.

And then, like a blessing, in her links, I find Polyamorously Perverse. I can't say enough how this couple's writings have touched me, made me cry, made me feel hope and love, even in the brief time that I've spent reading a few posts. So much sheer love that comes across, reminding me of what I have with my H. In particular, the post entitled Love Letters articulates something that I didn't even know I was experiencing. It's rather unlikely that my H does read this blog, but the thought of it is spectacular, and in a way, I wish he did. There's so much that I put here that I am too much of a coward to express to him in person, and if only he could see for himself, then perhaps that dialogue could begin. Polyamorously Perverse also takes me to that place that I once glimpsed in my naive youth, but like a sage, has insights and deeply real, human experience that gives the writing a character of profundity. Thank you thank you thank you C. & Tom Paine.

Wow, I just stumbled across your rave review, and I'm so flattered and honored at what you said. I'm sure I speak for C. when I say that we're touched to be helpful in this small way. And if it's any encouragement, I learned awhile back that C. had stumbled on the blog on her own, and had been a "secret reader" for most of the time I thought she was unaware of what I was writing. So perhaps H. will stumble upon it (or maybe even find a trail of crumbs left by you).

Glad to see you back and writing, A. Missed hearing about your life. Things in my life have been...uneventful. That would be the good term to use. Keep us informed as to how your life is going!
