I admit it. I check my blog several times a day for comments. I don't receive them via email because for some odd reason, I love to see the numbers go up on the comment section of the blog itself.
In fact, I think I'm more than a comment junkie - I am just a letter junkie period. I love getting emails. I love getting letters in the mail. When I was young, I used to stalk the mailbox every day because I couldn't wait to get the mail. One time, my mom, who had watched my disappointment and frustration when I didn't get any mail, sent me a note that said, "I hope this mail cheers you!" What a great mom!
And I guess I've carried that obsession over to my blog comments. I just love to hear from people!
What about you? Are you a "comment junkie"?

All right. Enough with the down-in-the dumps posts. I realized that I had way too many of them in the past few weeks and I am bumming myself...
Hey, don't I send you enough stuff on FaceBook? Looks like I need to re-double my efforts.
ReplyDeleteI think I must be. I have them on email AND I keep checking in too - I love to actually SEE them.
ReplyDeleteYou have Facebook? Next time I can log on (can't at work) I'll do a search for you. :o)
I'll feed your fix!! :)) I'm the same way, I thrive on seeing the numbers go up and then I'm like a little kid going in to read them.
ReplyDeleteABSOLUTELY! They make me so happy when I see that someone not only read, but commented!!!
ReplyDeleteAnother comment for you.
ReplyDeleteOh, and don't you get disappointed when you check and there aren't any new comments.
haha well now I feel bad! I read your blog religiously and hardly ever comment! I promise to do better!
ReplyDeleteYes, posting and commenting, keeps the writer's blues away. I feel less isolated.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a comment junkie but I can say it is nice to get several comments on a post you worked hard on.
ReplyDeleteHello, my name is Jenn and I am a comment junkie! Hooray! acceptance is important ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice way of looking at it, Comments as little letters dropped off during the day! I enjoy the dialogue that the comments often spark, too.
ReplyDeleteYes, me too. It's like little presents to read what others have to say. I love the connections.
ReplyDeleteYes! I admit it now that you have! I LOVE comments and the longer the better:)) Hope you get a zillion!
ReplyDeleteI am and that is what motivates me to post as often as I do.
ReplyDeleteI am the junkiest of the junkie. Wait, wait, wait. That sounds all wrong... ;)
ReplyDeleteHello, my name is Angie/Gumbo Writer, and I'm a commentaholic.... :)
ReplyDeleteLOLOL! Okay, so honestly... what writer isn't a comment Junkie? Seriously. We're all fascinated to see how what we've written has affected other people! hehehe! It's like our own little science experiment! LOL! And yes, i should've realized early on I was a writer, since I too am addicted to the comments people leave! LOL! Jenni
ReplyDeleteTotally a comment junkie. Like others here, I find it's not good enough to get them by email...I have to go to the post and savor them there!
ReplyDeleteI check emails several times a day and comments too. I love it.
ReplyDeleteOMG, I SO do the same thing! I'm obsessed with blog comments. I think I get some type of twisted validation from the fact that others have not only read what I wrote, but related to it enough to comment on it.
ReplyDeleteI'm not so good at commenting on other blogs sometimes, though I read quite a few of them everyday. I'm working on that, but there are only so many hours in the day and so, so many blogs :-P
