Reprise

It's thoroughly surreal to pore through the pages of this blog after months of cheerful neglect: what greets me is simultaneously familiar and foreign. 

On one hand, I know every picture and every word, intimately... but did I actually think that? Type it out? And post it for absolutely anyone to see? Murmur.

The problem is, whenever I've made sweeping declarations and solemn promises to faithfully update these pages on a consistent basis, I've rather quickly stumbled and tripped. (Clumsiness: I has it.) 

And I joke with regularity that my brain has atrophied to such a degree that I can no longer write or read anything longer than 140 characters. The niggling fear, of course, is that the joke's on me.

So I'll resist the temptation to pledge that this content will be refreshed with any regularity or coherence. I'll just say that it's good to be here again. What happens next is anyone's guess.

Amy, I love your blog! It'd be so great to have you back posting on a regular basis.

I just went back and read the posts that you linked to, all of which were posts I had read before. But still... hilarious. (With the exception of the story about Spencer getting lost. That one? Just scary.)

The story about finding out your nanny had "died"? So awful, yet so funny. Especially after finding out what a hoot Nanny thought it all was!

When I was clicking on your links in the "Watershed" post, I revisited the "Ultrastunned" post, and something struck me that hadn't before. Did you really not know you were having twins until 24 weeks? That's incredible, especially with the frequency with which they do ultrasounds these days! You must have been a tiny pregnant lady for them to never suspect! :)

Anyway, I know you're not making any promises, but I hope you come back and write again soon!

P.S. This is heatherkj from Twitter, in case you don't "recognize" me.

SWEARTOGOD this isn't a guilt trip, but seeing your blog name in bold in my Bloglines TOTALLY made my day.

I just about freaked out when I saw an update in my bloglines from you. You are such an awesome blogger, please, please come back!

I was shocked -- SHOCKED, I tell you! -- when your blog was bolded in Bloglines. Last night I had a dream (prepare to be riveted) that you and Mr. F5 moved into the same building as we were moving into. It seemed like a hotel or a giant vacation condo type of place. Anyhoo, we were shouting over our balconies to each other making plans to get together and do some drankin'.

I do hope you blog more!

Oh! Word verification is "ternato," which is totally how a hillbilly would pronounce "tornado!"

Had given up checking; saw that you had a new post from T-Rob's site. Come back; it'll be ever so much more satisfying than 140 characters...and I won't have to keep up with Twitter so much. ;-)

WTF? I had pretty much given up checking on you! I saw the same post for months! Maybe it was pure hope that I could read some more hilariousness from you! Welcome back....at least for now...

So, a random post? You need a complete workover, new pix of the kids, update of th backstory, story about your Escort, sweatin' with the 'moldies,' ets., etc.

(You can see by the date I don't visit frequently)

So, how's that hope and change working out for you!? You stupid stupid lemming! LOL - the worst president ever! Perhaps even worse than Carter - if that is possible!

Hey Anonymous!

You are the worst kind of lemming. Not ballsy enough to engage in real political discourse, you choose to lob anonymous hate on a family blog.

Please go somewhere and die, you fucking troll.

Thank you
