My Life Would Suck Without You
13 Oct
I wanted to take today to thank you, my tens of readers, for being beyond supremely awesome.
When I started this crazy thing called blogging, I never thought that anyone besides my Sissy and my Bunco ladies would ever read it. Fast forward about a year and a half later and I am still amazed that people read this random collection of my mental (and sometimes verbal) incontinence.
Some of the comments I’ve received lately have made me realize that I’m not only entertaining you lovely people who are nice enough to visit me here every day, but in some ways I’ve actually helped you.
That is fucking amazing to me.
Whether it be someone who is about to go through their first colonoscopy or is struggling with anxiety or is just looking for someplace to escape for two minutes of the day, it is a total honor for me to write for you.
And speaking of writing, is there a point in a blogger’s life where you finally feel like it’s acceptable to introduce yourself as a writer? When people ask me what I do for a living, I always want to mention the blog, but since I’m losing money on it I’m not exactly being supported and/or making a single penny from it (yet), I feel like I can’t really call myself an author.
A narcissist, maybe. Author? No.
But even without the label (or the paycheck), I am so thankful for the opportunity to share my life, my stories, and my inner-most thoughts, however embarrassing, with you.
Please know that even if I don’t reply to every comment (which I’m really trying to change! Promise!) or write every day, each and every one of you that visit this page, my life in Arial font, are just as much a part of Mom to Bee as I am.
Thank you for reading, for commenting and for not judging me (out loud). It is an honor to entertain you every week and I hope my ass and/or vagina continue to entertain you for a long, long time.
Weirdos.

Thank you…for sharing your nutty stories with us!
You’re posts always put a smile on my face
I think it is obvious you have impacted my life, even if we didn’t get to spend too much time together, and I enjoy catching up and getting to know you on a more personal level where before, it was simply a co-worker thing. I love your openness and your TV-obsession. Thanks for sharing a piece of yourself with us every day!
From one mama to another – I hear you! I, too, find blog world to be fun, challenging, and definitely keeps my spirits going knowing that there is an audience, even if for me it’s fairly small.
Keep on, keepin on…
I like that you say what I want to but am too afraid and not nearly eloquent enough to.
I hope to blog consistently someday but until then I’ll just bottle things inside and become more and more bitter and resentful.
Please don’t be like me. I’d have nothing to read at odd times of the day/night without you.
I like you. I need you. I might love you.
That got weird….
Kassia, I don’t know whether to send you a Valentine or a restraining order!
I have to tell you that the best thing for the bottled up resentment is therapy! I LOVE IT! It’s shocking in it’s revelations.
I consider you an amazing author … and LOVE reading your posts. Don’t tell him I told you but Josh is hooked too! In fact he wants me to go see Paranormal Activity… I just need to find the football team to go with!
LOVE YOU!
I’m pretty much just here for the ass. And sometimes the vadge.
HAHA! you know I ♥ you, MB!
Honestly – if it wasn’t for you, there would be days when I wouldn’t even crack a smile. I’m a pathetic work at home “older” mom – both sons are grown and out of the house, my husband works late and comes home exhausted, basically falls asleep in front of the TV. 90 percent of my day is sitting in front of this computer working, just communicating with my dog occasionally, asking her if she has to go outside. I’m not trying to get sympathy, I just want you to know that I start every day reading your blog, most of the time you make me laugh out loud, the rest of the time you make me smile. If not for you, I’d be a house plant. Thank you for making my day.
No restraining order needed! Unless you want to hang out in a court room with me, then lets go for it!!
