Embarrassed by My Stalking of YOU

So, I'm a little embarrassed because I stalk some of your blogs. I find myself, since I entered blog land as a participant and not just a reader, NOT visiting blogs so much because I don't want to seem like the crazy lady down the street that you are pretty sure intercepts your mail.

But I don't want to apologize or be embarrassed. You guys make my day. I LOVE reading your blogs and people's responses, and laughing, and sometimes getting irritated, and always learning. I entered the tango world all by myself, and I'm a bit on the shy side, so I'm still building those friendships where it's ok to share every little tango detail. You all keep me from alienating my non-tango friends, and from that awkward silence that comes when I see them roll their eyes as I recount some spectacular feat from the previous night's milonga.

So, I'm done apologizing for reading. I might come by 2, 3, or 6 times in a day. It's because you said something that I want to read again. Or because I want to hear what others are saying about what you said.

Thanks for blogging.

Kym, I stalk yours too. Not only are your posts great, but your comments are even better. I don't know you IRL, but I wish we lived closer because I would stalk you in person too. Because you are great. And your husband is a better cook than I am.

I don't think you stalk my blog (since I just found yours), but I will say, I love when I see visitors coming back or spending time reading older posts. I have one visitor in particular who searches me online, lies about me, AND stalks my blog, and that is completely different! A good reader is another world from an obsessed stalker. I know, because I have both!

I wish I had a blog so you could stalk me too.
