I thought I’d make my first webcomic in honor of you and Blogger Appreciation Week. It sums up my feelings for the whole thing. Click on it to see full-size.
Thanks to Bitstrips.com for that fun little gem.
Yeah, so I think EVERY week is Blogger Appreciation Week. Just like I think EVERY day should be Valentine’s Day if you actually area lucky enough to have a valentine. I don’t need a special Week to tell me when I should appreciate people. I try to show that every day.
That’s the reason behind Freaky Frakkin’ Fridays. That’s the reason behind my radio shows. And my links to friends and favorites bloggers. And my comments to people around the blogiverse. And my twatting.
People. It’s all about the people. It’s why I’m driving up to Orlando in a few days to hang with Adam, Britt, and Becky. It’s why I’m staying broke with all the traveling to New York City NEXT week…to hang with people. It’s why I’m going to California next MONTH to hang with Hilly and lots of other folks. People.
You guys rock. I love that I have such a diverse group of friends online. I love that I have a hundred places to stay around the country, provided I drug and brainwash some of you first. I love that I have a place to hang out where people get me and let my freak flag fly. And even if they don’t get me, they still for some reason subscribe to my RSS feed, because that’s what’s REALLY important.
Yeah, it’s the people.
And the numbers.
I kid. Mostly.
I have to say, I’m a little glad I missed the vienna sausages with your toes video

That’s a really cute cartoon… and quite true. You do stuff every day for your readers. It’s too cool. Although the dancing in your boxers kinda sticks in my head as an odd moment.

I love that cartoon – it’s genius! The facial expressions cracked me up.

That’s a lot of driving. Did you convert your car to bio diesel or something?

Could you bring a vinyl sheet with you this weekend? Just in case.

Eating vienna sausages with your toes? That scares me on a number of different levels.
Half the time I wake up and blog in a loose t-shirt and panties with no bra.
I guess that’s mostly naked.

Am feeling the love round here today!
You always bring a smile to my face and Buttons gives me a lift on my dark days. Karl, you are a marvel.
