The joys of blogging and the sorrow that comes with nothing to say

I really enjoy blogging. I enjoy reading other peoples' blogs. I love those few seconds of anticipation I experience when I'm checking to see if anyone has commented on my latest entry - and the satisfaction I feel when I no longer see "0 comments" at the end of my post. I love the idea that there are people I've never met who may be reading one of my entries and laughing - or crying (let's be honest, "SnotSpot" and "Nascar is Boring" were pretty moving posts). I love the fact that I'm getting to know people through blogging. I get a kick out of reading all my friends' comments on my blog and other blogs. i love that I feel more connected to my friends through these blogs because I know what's going on in their lives and they know what's going in mine - even though we don't see each other more than once a week. I think it's hilarious when two people are arguing with each other via the comments page on someone's post. I love it when someone adds me to their blogroll and I love adding new people to mine.

Sigh...

I have absolutely nothing to blog about.
