It’s been a long time… long time… since I met you…

by Marylin on January 14, 2010

Yes, that is from a song… I can’t remember which one, but I’m sure it is from a song!

It feels like it’s been a long time since I started this bloggity thing. I guess it has. November 07 saw me write my first post. I’ve met some awesome people along the way. So many I couldn’t list them all here.

The first ever blog I read was, a blog about gaming. Then I found TJ’s blog and when she joined NaBloPoMaHo in Nov 07 I wanted to jump on the bandwagon, although I didn’t really have a clue what I was letting myself in for! Thanks to the NaBlo’in fun I met Veronica, Lotus and Sandy, along with many others. Those are the three I still read religiously – though I may not comment all the time (naughty blogger/commenter!).

There have been a *lot* of changes in my life since I started blogging, not to mention new friendships I’ve made online. Barbara and Mrs W come to mind when I think of that. Actual UK bloggers! OMG! I swear I couldn’t find any UK bloggers till the British Mummy Bloggers ning group started up – now there are so many to choose from I don’t know where to start.

Today (as you might have guessed) is Delurker day 2010, and (of course) I’d like to find out if there are actually any lurkers here on my blog. I’d love to know more about you, and if you have a blog, I want to have the chance to read it!

So, if you’re normally a lurker (as I am myself on quite a few blogs), please de-lurk yourself, even if it’s only for one day! I’d love to hear about how you found me, and also… which is better – chocolate, or crisps? Cause I’m never quite sure myself… (also I would ask who your favourite blogger is but it’s been done! ;) ).

Come forward and comment! It’s like giving me presents, and I loves me presents!

Chocolate, for sure. And I’m the furthest thing from a lurker you’ve got I think!

Yes, you know that was your 269th comment on my blog? Wow… you’re like… stalker material! :P

Chocolate as well. I’m also not really lurker material!

I think I’m more of a crisp person to be honest… in fact, where’s that monster munch I got earlier today! ;)

It’s been a while since I commented – so I’ve mostly been a lurker here. It’s sure been a long time since the days of my old Tigersoul blog too! I miss WoW but it hasn’t affected my happiness too much – and I’m glad that you seem to be doing very well considering! :)

Ah yes, I remember being *so* excited about your lil one being born! hehe :)

I’m also WoW-less these days, and although I miss the friends I made, I don’t miss the time-suck it became. I can do so much more now!

I lurk with an occasional comment! I think I found you maybe through a Weekly Winners Post? Don’t remember. ; )

Hi Cortney, I am the same on your blog – we’re a pair aren’t we? :)
I have a feeling you’re right about it being Weekly Winners. I keep meaning to take part in that more but life seems to get in the way too much these days! lol

I’m pretty sure I found your blog by comments you left on mine…and didn’t you used to participate in Haiku Friday?

Marylin Reply:

Yes, I did! Lots! I keep thinking about participating in it again, but then life gets in the way and it’s forgotten about! lol :)

Yes!! My thoughts exactly!! Crisps> chocolate any day for me too.

I think I found you through twitter too. :)

I’ve been buried, but I’ve been reading, so I guess this is almost like re-de-lurking ;-)

Marylin Reply:

Same here! ;)

CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-D

Marylin Reply:

Some evenings I’d agree with you, but tonight I’m in a crisps mood! ;)

I don’t think I’ve commented, so I’m delurking.

Hello (waves!)

I seem to be quite an infrequent blogger too at the mo, except when poked by Barbara, but hoping to improve.

Chocolate. Definitely chocolate.

Marylin Reply:

Hello!
I’m the same re the blogging, i start off with good intentions for the week but by the end of it i’m like “meh”. ;)

What the heck’s up with you lady? I am NOT lurking… just stopping by to say haven’t seen any new posts in a while or seen you over at my place either!
Sooooo, what’s going on? ;-)
