de-lurking week

Is anybody out there?

I can’t help wondering how many other bloggers out there feel like they need to de-lurk on their own blogs. Sigh. I’m hopeful that maybe this will be the year that I can motivate myself to get more regular about posting. There’s been a lot going on this year, some work stuff, some personal stuff, some just trudging through the daily swamp that my emotions become when I’m not giving them due attention. 2008 was a rocky year – many many ups and downs and sideways that masqueraded as an up or down.

I’m a horrid commenter on other blogs – feeling intimidated by the communities that I perceive to exist, not wanting to step in for fear of looking idiotic, not bothering to click through from the reader feed – I know, I know, stupid excuses all. The one excuse that I’m not sure I’ll get over this year is the need to sign in to comment. While I understand it I just can’t ever remember my passwords. So if you’re one of those whose blogs requires my password, my apologies. I’ll try to remember and comment this year but if I don’t, please don’t hate me.
My question to you this week, if there is anyone out there, is what you want to know, what you’d like to see here but mostly, let me know you’re there.
