Blogoversary

Today my blog is a year old.

I can't believe it's been that long, and I also can't believe I hadn't been doing it longer.  Mostly it's my anniversary with you, so a few thank yous are in order.

Thank you for reading.

Thank you for commenting.

Thank you for lurking.

Thank you for being pissed when I'm pissed, tickled when I'm tickled, and baffled when I'm baffled.

Thank you for laughing with me.

Thank you for chiming in when I rant.

Thank you for sending good vibes to a stubborn uterus, and rooting for me even when I don't have the energy to.

Thank you for the kind words.  Especially the ones that have told me I would make a decent Mom, the ones that have made me blush about my writing abilities, the ones that said 'nah, girl, you're not crazy, I think that's hilarious too.'

Thank you for letting me rant and rave, blaspheme, use the F word a record number of times, feel sorry for myself, find the humor in the usually humorless, and not hold back.

Thank you for being receptive and supportive in every blogpost, whether it's serious or simply arguing my case in the Ryan Reynolds vs. Ryan Gosling debate (which may, despite it's total lack of depth, be my favorite post ever mostly for the insane comments).  (And I  forgive you if you side on Reynolds... mostly).

Thank you to the people who started reading from the beginning, thank you to the ones who just started, and thank you to everyone in between.

On day one minute one of blog writing, I was in a rough spot and starting this blog helped me drag my ass out of it. 

Never in my wildest dreams did I think anyone would want to read the sometimes uterine-related rants of a mad woman (but mostly just the unrelated ramblings of a mad woman). Through this blog and finding others, I've virtually met so many wonderful people (and a few in real life) and for that I am so thankful.

Thank you for letting me into your lives and for being a part of mine.  You have been more helpful and inspiring than I could ever communicate, and you all should know by now I have a tiny, mechanical, untouchable robot heart. This is quite the feat. 

The fertility blog world is just one, giant, wonderfully loving monster that existed long before me and I'm thankful it has tolerated my tiny, insignificant ass for this long and in such a receptive way. 


So happy anniversary to us.  If you lived any closer, I'd be taking you out for a steak dinner and giving you the really, really good sex tonight.

  3. Happy Blogoversary!

    Who are these people who prefer Ryan Reynolds to Ryan Gosling? Did they not see Two Guys, A Girl, and A Pizza Place?

    1. These people are CRIZAY in my book.

      And this also makes me realize I should link to the post of which I speak because it might be my favorite, ever, and people got insane in the comments...

  7. happy blogoversary....I too feel like you've been writing to me for years. It's so hard to believe you've only been at this for a year....I'm so hoping to continue following your story where ever it may lead. Thank you for writing so much of what my mind and heart have inside. I'm not the best at putting things to words, but you have an amazing talent for doing just that. So please, keep writing.....and putting out there what I'm not eloquent enough to do. :) LOVE YOU!

    1. I love you!

      And let's DO THIS SHIT. I imagine you are exhausted and drowning in some pretty serious new activity, however, when things are a little less cray-cray you name the time and place - I will buy the steak as long as you understand it's a downpayment for slipping you the tongue.

  9. Woman, do we love you back. I stumbled upon you via your video blog challenge. I had just had a miscarriage and had no idea that this community existed. I watched every single one of those videos. So thank you back for introducing me to this world of women. And for your grit and wit and openness. Thanks for the year, sisterfriend.
