recently, i had once again neared the bottom slope of the :roblog: sine wave — when i support the karass website and facebook page and myriad other publishing avenues i've embraced over the years, why the fuck should i blog?
but then, like clockwork, a stranger showed up and hit me with this welcome wave of gratitude (thank you thank you thank you, word girl, whoever you are)…

just a silent fan. usually, i prefer to stay that way, but the miranda july coincidence brought on a full-body goosebump attack and i'd had one too many glasses of wine. a search for bi blogs brought yours to my attention a little while ago. apparently we like a lot of the same things & i appreciate your funky perspective. glad you changed your mind re: continuation. would've missed it. ~wg

ok, so now i have to elaborate a little, so i don't feel like a schmuck for not commenting sooner. (warning: no way to say the following without sounding sappy, yet my sincerity is deep)...
the fact that you not only create the way you do but that you put it out there...really out there...is inspiring. i couldn't think of a cool way to say it. for every you, there are thousands of me...creating things no one will ever see because we're not brave enough. kudos to you, my friend.
there have been so many times i checked in on the blog and laughed out loud or said whatthefuck or got turned on to something i'd never heard of before, etc., etc. sometimes you mention something i've been into just that day and it creeps me out (in a good way)! so...know that you're getting through, being heard, having an effect, inspiring shit. not to mention the full-body goosebumps from time to time which are super-freaky.
…happy weekend to you and your peeps. ~wg
ps: the shout-out made me say "awwwwww" out loud. merci.
