It seems like a lot of my blogging friends are "going private" these days. I mean it seems smart . . . then no creepy people can read your blog right? And I am totally sure that I have all sorts of weird stalkers reading my blog. I mean, who wouldn't want to? I am such a talented writer and am pretty much amazingly cool. That's why I have a hard time denying the masses the opportunity to read such amazing amazingness if I were to go Private. The truth is . . . I am secretly hoping that all sorts of people that I am unaware of ARE reading my blog. I mean, I don't really mind some stalkers as long as they aren't creepy. I guess there is that chance that there are some creepy stalkers out there. So to you creepy ones I will just tell you . . . my husband is extremely strong. He is almost an Ironman and has the most amazing calves you have ever seen. And as for me, I know all sorts of martial arts moves that I've learned from Billy Blanks and Tony Horton . . . so just keep that in mind. I wouldn't mess with me.
And to everyone else . . . don't worry, I'm not going Private. But there is one thing that I've just got to know . . .
There have been a couple of times that a friend has announced to the world that they are going private requesting that if anyone wants to keep reading their blog to send them their email addresses. One of my friends had like 40 people respond. Wow! How popular she was! I was jealous.
I have counted on my hands the people that I know read my blog, and I think there is like eight. Five of those people I know read it because I actually send them email notifications when I post. Moms and Grandmas . . . thank you for your support.
But seriously. I have wondered if I went private if anyone else besides my family would say, "Invite me! Invite me!"
So I'm not going Private. But in order to boost my self-esteem . . .would you just tell me if you read my blog and how you would just DIE if I didn't invite you to my Private blog . . . if I had one? In fact . . .I don't care if you respond ten times using different pretend names. It all would go towards a good cause . . .
. . . BLOATING MY EGO. . .
So if you want to keep reading my "not so Private Blog" . . . you had better tell me . . . or you just might not get in . . . :)
If no one responds, don't worry about my ego. Because I will know the truth. The truth will be that the thousands of undeclared readers . . . are really just too embarrassed to admit how much they really love my blog.
So to you thousands out there . . . because I am such a giving person . . . I guess I will let you keep reading.

I'm one of those creepy readers that is stalking you because I am so amazed by your rock hard abs and toned calves--"yours" Mary, not Lamon's (who I could totally take). We will be back to Utah in 10 days so hopefully we can meet up and I don't have to only hear about your life via your blog!!

You blog makes me smile and laugh. ---and it makes me miss talking with you. Keep blogging!!! I may not comment, but I get excited whenever you post anything because I know it is going to be awesome!
Glad you didn't go private, Mary, because I just stumbled onto your blog and have been loving every word. (You know how much of a stalker I am if I've made it back this far on your blog without stopping. I trust I qualify as one of the non-creepy ones?) I hope to see more posts from you soon. You've got a way with words!
