I commented today at The Mommy Blog that I would give women equal time and do a little male bashing. Let me be the first to apologize. Telling everyone how horrible men can be in business or other parts of life is just too damn easy. You know, and I know, so why give it credit by discussing it? Heck, if you really want to do some male bashing, fire away in the comments. We men can always use a little humbling; of course there are only three or four men that might hear your roar.
What I really want to say is something that has been evident from the very start of my journey into blogdom. I love people. I love the differences in people, the showing of friendship and the all around goodness of people.
I posted earlier about why women can’t be more like men. In case you were wondering, I was being as sarcastic as I have ever been. What you say? Genuine, being sarcastic? I love that women are not like men.
Even me? :)
I don't know what to say except that was beautiful. No, really, it gave me goosebumps and made me glad to know you.
Blogs are a wonderful media for communication, are they not? I'm very happy that you have enjoyed your first 30 days, as I know I have enjoyed reading your blog. :-)
I've done my share of male bashing in the past, but I realize there's just as many bad women out there too. There are SO many differences in men and women. I find myself uttering "MEN!" a lot, but it really isn't the whole species, just a select few. I know there are some great men out there - it is just hard finding one that isn't already attached. ;-)
I agree with you about the human spirit - very well written post!!
Have a great day!
OMG, between J (the zero boss) calling me a slut, and you calling me a f-ing weirdo, whats a girl to do??
You love me!!
~H
Wow..that was very Touching! "not in a touchy feely way" ;)
I enjoy your blog! not sure if you have bothered to come to mine. But that is okay. I still come!
I too am rather new 'round these parts. I have also made some new friends, laughed alot with the everyday trials and tribulations that we all go through. It's just kinda nice to know that we aren't going through them alone and that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I read somebody's blog and think "I know EXACTLY how they feel" or "OMG - that happened to me." It is affirmation that although we are all different, we are all the same and maybe, just maybe, I am not as weird as I think I am!
This is why I read your blog. Very well written - honest and emotional. I'm very glad you found you way to the blogsphere.
I have just recently found your blog and am happy to report...i love it, very genuine, very real and very well written. *No male bashing from me...my hubby rocks!
Hey...I thought we were gonna bash men. What happened to that part of the post? Your gonna force me to post my favorite man bashing joke on Kazoofus now aren't you????

(Which is why I so totally adore you! Keep doing what you're doing. You're a great guy.)
Ah see, typical male behavior..you were gonnna allow us ladies to have our say, and then you throw in sappy stuff so we couldn't *possibly* be anything but piles of mush. :)
I'm honored (and IMO undeserving) to be on your blogroll, Genuine. *big wacko hug* I love you too, G. *sniff*
*sniffle* *wipe* *blow*
Don't get all sentimental on me when I'm emotional, you big lug.
Luv you too baby! And thanks for all your support.
Gotta' thank Heather for leading me to your world. No male-bashing from this Kimberlee, either.
That's very sweet of you. I'm sure those who you read are very touched by that. I know that's why I'm not addicted to people's blogs. It's like watching life unfold, and you get all the good bits. Good meaning, important, intense and sometimes random. :)
you're a great writer and I'm glad to have found your blog :-)
I think we all know people, as a collective unit, has it's share of idiots....lol That's the beauty of blogging I guess. You can tell who is venting and who is really bashing.
Love ya too! :-) Great post

/clumsy attempt at welcoming you affectionately to the club>
Seriously, I may make people feel better about their lives when they read my blog, but shit man, you definitely make us all feel better about our toy management skills!
If you have similarly managed closets or garage or Tupperware cupboards, by all means, show us!!

Wow. I just don't know what to say now.

If anyone had told me 6 months ago that I would go to my computer to pour out my heart ~ then wait for faceless but dear friends to reach out to me ... well, I would have called them "weird and wacky"
