The Idiot Award goes to . . . .

I have officially earned the Idiot Award for the month of October. Congrats to me!

Here I thought no one had commented on my last two posts and all this time I hadn't checked my comments moderation page. You see, I did some changing there. I first took comment moderation off, then remembered there are reasons why I have it on, so I turned it back on but FORGOT to add my email address again, so it could alert me to new comments.

I have been having some serious self esteem issues here and it was my own dang fault!!!!! Now, most of you know I like to make deep, ingenious comparisons to life experiences, so let me point out here that I created my own misery though my own ditziness.

How many times have I done this to myself during my long, exciting lifetime? Well, I'd need a few more hands to count with. Now I have to go back and wash the mud off my face and apologize to all of you who HAD commented! Yes, you really do love me and I love you back! I'm not worthy. (bowing here)

So, next time you feel like you have no friends and that your blog must be the most boring writing on earth, go first and check your comment moderation. You might be pleasantly surprised!

I wore my shirt inside out to work the other day.

I am pretty sure, the award might not be in the bag...


LOVE YOU

I'll keep an eye on mine - I have zero moderation other than the new spam feature, so if no one commented, I'd be REALLY bummed!

Krista said...

You must've breathed a sigh of blog relied! Count me in as another commenter, I clicked over from N.R. Williams, enjoyed browsing ...

Joanne said...

Now if only I could spell it right ... blog "relief!"

Katie Anderson said...

Oh no! It is easily done though, I've done the same thing many a time - complete with feelings of rejection!

Hi Melissa - You are awesome! Isn't it so sad that we are our own worst critics? Glad everything is figured out.

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...
