Because You're Beautiful: One Day Only Answers

May 26, 2005 | Category: In My Life



My Blogiversary is tomorrow today over!

Thank you.

You crazy people have honored me with almost 40,000 visits. 1300 1457 comments. You are amazing, amazing, amazing.

All my life, I wanted to be an author. And you made me one. Because of this blog. Because I wrote, and you read.

So, thank you. Thank you for listening. For allowing me to get to know you, for this dialogue, for this community.

In my gratitude, I'm going to answer the 3 most popular questions I get and leave this answer up until the end of tomorrow. So without further ado:

1) What do I look like?
2) Am I really a senior manager in a Fortune 400 company?
3) Can I read the SciFi story you wrote?

Words can not express my affection and indebtedness to the folks who have stopped by and commented. You've made this year, you beautiful nutty wonderful people. You ....complete me.

Now I'm all sniffly.

Damn. I'm still catching up on my blogreading and I missed this vital date.

Happy Belated Blogiversary!

Heh. The disappearing answers didn't apply to me since:

1) You've held your bosoms against my chest.*
2) Got the skinny on that way back when I was an unemployed bum.**
3) Read it.***

* It was a hug, you perverts. Get your minds out of the gutter.
** Or should that be described as "disemployed"?
*** And liked it! Y'all can email me with bribes. I take PayPal and GreenZap so it's really easy.

E, you look wonderful! I'm proud to call you my cyber-twin (though we look nothing alike - I'm African-American, for starters!). Thanks for writing in this marvelous blog and keep up the great work!

I am a Brit nad don't work in anything like business so have no idea what a fortune 400 company is, but i am sure it is almost as impressive as your pic :)

Happy anniversary, Baby!

(I love the picture, too!) :)

Happy anniversary!!!

It's so great to put a face with a blog! Thanks for sharing your stories with us and congratulations on your one-year out here!

Posted by: karmajenn on May 26, 2005 09:14 AM


I think you look wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing your picture - I know it's hard to do. Part of the reason I hate to log on to my own blog is the pic of me there. Even though I like it, it's still a bit much.

Hmmm, that was all about me and not you.

Happy Blog-iversary!

Happy Blogiversary, Baby! You write wonderfully. You ARE an author. And you're lovely. Inside and outside.

I respect you, I am in awe of you and I (heart) you, too.

xoxo

I've seen your sweet face over at Blue Sloth. But this full on face of yours - lovely!

Bravo to you, Elizabeth, one of the great writers in the blogosphere. I feel lucky that I found you back in September.

Your admiring fan,
Grace

Congratulations! I've been enjoying your posts for many weeks now. My life is very different from yours, but I so appreciate your sharing such candid glimpses into your life.

Truly.... I don't know how you manage it all.

Happy Blogiversary, Elizabeth! Love the picture, by the way. Just great!

Congratulations on your blogiversary! (did I spell that right?) Thank you for letting the internet see a slice of your life. I see so many similarities between your life and mine, it is nice to know that I am not alone in my struggles. Keep writing - you're doing a great job!

Absolutely gorgeous, Darlink! Happy Blogiversary too!! I'll have the kiddo send you over some "soup" ASAP.

Posted by: Michele on May 25, 2005 07:33 PM


Okay, you are so pretty... and smart... someday I'm coming up there and we're totally going to go cry in our margaritas. You have no idea how many times I've read the cosmic answers to my cosmic questions on your blog. Thank you for writing!

Posted by: Stacy on May 25, 2005 06:55 PM


Isn't it wonderful therapy? You posts are therapy for me, as much as writing them can be therapy for you too. I am, as well, a corporate mommy, as you so eloquently put it.

Posted by: beautifulface on May 25, 2005 06:39 PM


Gorgeous!

Posted by: Bond Girl aka Kimberly on May 25, 2005 06:06 PM


Gorgeous. Simply.

And it's we who should be thanking you for letting us tag along.

Happy Bloggyday, Elizabeth!

You are so attractive and foxy at the same time. I would love to read your sci-fi story. Would you send me the link?
Keep on smiling!!

Posted by: Azalea on May 25, 2005 04:31 PM


You're hot. And I say that in a totally heterosexual way.

Posted by: Beth on May 25, 2005 03:44 PM


You are gorgeous! And I love your writing. I'm not that into SciFi (romance is my thing), but your excerpt is really compelling. I'd love to read the whole thing.
