Even with 'comments' - it is fun to be on the soapbox. I do know that the Matron facebooks from time to time. I sure as heck am not going to follow more than a few blogs. Just don't have the time. Just like bloggers don't have time for FB? All I can say, is I pale at the thought of the consistency and time involvement of putting out a regular blog. So I guess I stick with what suits! -The Other Mary's Tom.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04638393118657352118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-86498208326623449532010-05-11T07:28:56.860-07:002010-05-11T07:28:56.860-07:00My husband doesn't read my blog. When someone ...My husband doesn't read my blog. When someone asked him why he doesn't, he replied "Because I live it." Fortunately he believes in being gay, so I won't have to hide his body in the attic when friends come over.<br /><br />I think people who don't read blogs do it as part of their political stance, as a way of demonstrating their True Gravitas and Lack of Interest In Silliness. Which is completely counter productive in my case, because my blog often contains the best bits of my mind.sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005397694258169964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-53586072582918073452010-05-10T13:56:31.306-07:002010-05-10T13:56:31.306-07:00I don't believe in stamps.I don't believe in stamps.Mrs. G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01171997573144385692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-12949228898709061622010-05-10T13:13:01.134-07:002010-05-10T13:13:01.134-07:00Oh my goodness!

I would have thought of it 4 hours after the fact, in which time it would have been mute.<br /><br />I have to admit though, I would just as soon not have some of the people in my everyday life not read my blog. I write for me not for them and sometimes I vent, if they read it and then I have to rehash a vent it's all dramatic....I dunno, I don't keep it off limits to the "reals" in my life but I don't always promote it. But I do, with absolute certainty believe in blogging :)Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10102106102102901103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-89789478261516515832010-05-10T12:50:03.907-07:002010-05-10T12:50:03.907-07:00I get it, Erin!
