Delurking Day

So a very wise person, CreoleinDC, suggested a delurking day. You know....a day for everyone to come out of hiding and introduce themselves.

I was suprised that a few of you came out and introduced yourselves yesterday. Even better, I have a reader in Germany? Who would have thought my little crazy existence would have interest to someone from another country? Very cool.

So if you would like to come out, introduce yourself and say hello, please do. I would love to get to know YOU as well.

Happy Friday!

and on a sidenote.....Happy Birthday to one of my favorite Bloggers.....Big Ups to The Brutha Code!!

Hello... I'm Sula.. And 1969 is my blueprint :D... I check the blog on the daily but do not comment as often which makes me half-lurker/half-commenter...

Now I'm cheesin' for the group photo... :)

Blogger 1969 said...

Aunt Jackie, Jameil and Miz JJ and Javaughn......all the J's posting together. CON-spiracy?

Javaughn...of course I remember you. All of the Philly crew sticks together :)

Hmmm...and then we have Sonia and Ms. Sula.....the "S" ladies trying to retaliate against the J's?? Blogwars! First the rappers, now the commenters...whew.

Sonia...welcome, welcome. YAY for delurking. Stay and comment anytime and thanks for the support.

Ms. Sula....you know I am trying to be fabulous like YOU so stop playing. (Ms. Sula is a diva ya'll)

hey, since its "delurking day" i might as well come out along with all the others! I usually stop by here each day because to me, your take on life seems so optimistic that it inspires me to be the same about my life (damn, i know that sounded super corny but its the truth! lol) anyways, just wanted to come out and say i absolutely love the blog!

Hello. I'm afraid that I am not a lurker, however, I am guilty of commenting on blogs more than I visit or write on my own. I am a fabulous woman, wife and mother, such as yourself. And the truth is, that before I knew you were such an effing lady, I was skeptical about your moniker and thought YOUR blog-line-name meant you were totally into that "position". Which, would be great if you were single and available for the "Sexaholic Zed." Then he'd have, like two things he loves, but rarely gets, wrapped up in one woman. The sixty-nine and stuff. *LOL*

*Just joking Zed* It's also nice to know that our 'kinship' goes deeper than any blog could reveal...

wow. i just spent like 15 mins reading all your comments! lol.

well, i can't say i visit your blog everyday, but i visit a lot. why i don't comment? i have no clue. your blog is fabulous. i come via organized noise.

i wish i was flyy like always.funky.fresh and could spit, but i can't. so i'll just say this is Muze from detroit..and i'm addicted to blogging.

LMAO @ Fresh's comment. love it!

I honestly can't remember how I came across your blog but I thought it was cute and when I saw that you were from Trinidad it was a done deal. You are one of the few posts I read written by a "real" adult (i.e. career, kids, husband) and I absolutely love it.. so don't you go private on me!!

Anyway, as you prob know I'm a young woman from that good ol DC area bout to finish my last year in college.

I love fam, friends, traveling, reading and long walks on the beach. Now go on.. Call me at 1-800-IAM-MLLE. It's only 99 pence a minute.
