Yes, I am throwing a fit.

I have never been "popular" and it is safe to say I am no stranger to rejection. But seriously, I am getting a little discouraged. I have been blogging for over a year now. And while I find it therapeutic I can't help but get a little depressed when I log on and see that I have 2 followers.... 2! And I am pretty sure only one of them is actually reading this. Thank you Breezie :) Why do I even bother? I might as well be talking to a wall. Obviously years of perfecting my ability to disappear have paid off. I am officially transparent. No one wants to hear what I have to say and quite frankly I don't blame them. Who wants to read a random blog from a random person rambling about random things? I am beginning to think that this whole blogging thing just isn't for me :(

There you have it. My Pity Party... I could keep going but what is the point... no one is listening.

Dude- hello! I'm totally listening. :D

I didn't have any followers or anything for a really long time- probably almost a year. That's when I decided that it was okay to use it as my journal instead of a "and today we're doing such and such" thing. Once the real me popped out I got followers.
Okay, that's not all correct... It's because I went viral and spread my blog to everyone that I know (friends, family, church friends, work friends, strangers at target.... ) and poof- as they would say in field of dreams, you write it- they will come.

I recently read this post from one of my favorite blogs to stalk and it helped me get some insight to getting visitors.

Anyway... Hope that helps. Keep truckin'... you're hilarious. You need to write down those thoughts going through your head.

I tried pushing it onto my family but I guess they aren't willing to commit to it. And I don't really have the confidence to ask total strangers to read it. I will have to look at that link. And thank you again for listening to me ramble :)

I am glad you like the background. I was rather fond of my old one but I kept getting a message from the site saying it was going to be deleted... Lame...
