Thank Your First Commenter Day

by Staff Writer

Citizen of the Month is a blog that I frequent quite often as a newbie blogger. I may not comment as much as I should, but I appreciate the writing and wit (and tips on closet reconstruction for Sophia). It’s always my excuse to do a little “research” and read when I have absolutely nothing in my head to write about.

Neil gave birth to a fledgling little idea last year and it’s a terrific hit. This year’s “Thank Your First Commenter Day” is mimicked by many but truly replicated by none. Still, we all participate–in the spirit of the approaching holiday and in reverence to our beloved readers.

Drumroll, please….

I’d like to thank Elisa for being the first to comment on my blog: “Your blog sounds like it will be quite thought provoking, Christina. My sweetie and I have been married for four years and together for seven. I can always use some pointers.”

Well, Elisa it’s certainly thought provoking on my ending–sitting here strumming my fingers over the keys as I search desperately for something to write! I wish you and your sweetie a beautiful holiday season…

I consider Elisa one of many virtual friends I’ve been graced with over this short time. She’s a silly book-lover over at the Book Stacks and a neighbor in a nearby city that I have yet to have coffee with (maybe after NaNoWriMo is over!)

Thank you, Elisa for stopping by, for leaving your two cents, for hopefully getting a bit more back in change. And, thank you to all who continue to read and comment. Without you, I’d be in this auditorium all by myself. The spotlight is a scary place so thanks for joining me–we make a hell of an ensemble cast!

To finishing the first year (only 317 days left to go!!) mindfully and lovingly, with all of you around…

    Thank You Christina. I was stuck at home on Thanksgiving, and you made me smile.
    Your Indian restaurant suggestion was spot on, btw.
    It is now our favorite. They even make the food hot enough for my sweetie. May your holiday season shine.
