Please don’t go. You are way better than dooce (no offense to her, I just like your edge).

I don't know about your posting, that's all your biznass. I've been having second thought lately as well. 7 years from now, when it isn't a fad anymore, and I have nine years of my life all written about and organized, I'll know why I didn't stop.

Interesting though, the switch from talking about the dog parade to all the personal reflection stuff, while still posting photos of the dog parade. I'm going to have to try that sometime to mess with people.

I'd miss ya, kid.

I think the difference between you and a lot of bloggers is that you’re a writer. A really pretty good writer. That said, whatever you decide to do, I’m sure you’ll be writing something, somewhere. Maybe you’re just growing out of this particular medium… or the form you gave it when you first started.

I can totally relate to getting tired of talking about yourself. When you first started, you were one of very few and now there are thousands and thousands. Not many who do it as well as you do, though, so you’ve set a good high standard.

I have nothing original to say.

Like so many others who've commented here, you inspired me to start a blog of my own. Surely, that must be the greatest comment and encouragement of all.

You showed me there was actually a place on the internet for quirky, honest, slice-of-life, anecdotal writing. And proved that other people might actually share the same sense of humour and be attracted.

I understand the whole business of feeling stifled and limited by your own creation. I saw "Yogabeans" and thought, 'Good on her'.

Whatever happens, you've obviously touched many lives. More power to you, whatever happens.

you could write about belly button lint growing and i would read it. hope we faithful readers will get to travel along with you, wherever your blog is heading.

yours is one of the very first blogs I ever saw, and reading you made me start my own.

In case you’re interested, I came to your blog to see your hair-volution. I didn’t read the mommy stuff ’til I knew about the hair. If you’re looking for an idea…bring back the hair. I’d love to see if you could make it past the “in-between” growth!

If you go away, I’ll get fussy, and nobody likes a fussy bandick.

I think alot of us go through that funk and I can certainly relate. If you feel it’s time for a change/break/quit or smackdown – I say do whatever blows yer skirt up. Seriously. If you do make a change – please let us know where you’re writing, if at all.

I really wanna hear about the p/a karate mom though! Don’t hold out!

Take care of you.

Late poster: I am always inspired by your entries- perhaps they feel mundane to you , but they are always witty, sharp and fun to read. If you must stop, know that you’ll leave a legion of loyal readers, awaiting your next move. Yogabeans rocks!
