I once heard someone describe how to have a successful blog. I didn't like the sound of that--blogging for success. So I'm not going to.

Lurkers Welcome
A friend of mine recently confessed in her blog that she is a Lurker--one who surfs other's blogs and sticks around on interesting ones, checking back often for new posts, savoring the lives of strangers, and often longing to comment, but never doing so for fear of frightening the other bloggers with the knowledge that compele strangers are savoring their lives. I just want to officially make clear that I would welcome such frightening comments, or lack of comments if you are a hard-core lurker unable to overcome your fear of offence. Lurk away. That's why I have a blog. If you are able to overcome your fear, please do comment on anything to which you feel so inclined. I am excited at the prospect of opening dialog with bloggers (and lurkers) as yet unknown to me. I also welcome comments from people who are known to me. Especially my friends. I like you guys.

I don't count as a lurker, but I do count as a friend... I hope. :)
It is nice to know what is going on in our friends lives. I don't actually have a blog and am perfectly content with "facebook" as it requires no actual thought but allows my friends to find and contact me if they so desire.
Carol I love your blog. As I read I can picture you and even hear your voice. I also appreciate the laughter it causes.
Love, Shanna
