Very chic. <br /><br />The stories I like best are the short ones about misunderstandings or funny things that happened to you. Like the story about friendly's or Betty and the douchebag comment. (that was the word, right?) Those make me laugh really hard. <br /><br />I hope you had a really fun birthday!Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371041172350253503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-53372184317215202132010-08-16T11:43:56.034-04:002010-08-16T11:43:56.034-04:00Happy Birthday Lisa!!!

But also, I love your blog because you say what most of us feel at one time or another but don't necessarily know how to put into words - whether funny, emotional or brutally honest. I like the reality and the "now" of your posts and I like being involved in the responses.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17878620474790055856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-90679227513298248922010-08-16T09:20:05.696-04:002010-08-16T09:20:05.696-04:00happy (belated!) birthday pretty lady!! hope you ...happy (belated!) birthday pretty lady!! hope you have an amazing year ahead!<br /><br />i've only been reading your blog for about a year. and there's no one story i really can pick out, but what i do really love about your style of writing, is how "in the moment" i feel when im reading your stuff. you have a really great way of recapping a story, of expressing yourself that seems so conversational. and it never seems like you have to TRY to get that kind of feeling from your posts. you have a way of being funny and charming, but also seeming very real and ALSO, you can write a very poignant post which keeps me always, always coming back to read you more!<br /><br />HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGAIN!megabrookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07116377733819568110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-18965388725281780842010-08-16T07:29:47.602-04:002010-08-16T07:29:47.602-04:00I've bookmarked two of my favourite stories:

I felt sort of guilty that I couldn't automatically link to several of my favs. I know there have been those days when I actually DID lol, and there've been poignant posts, that made me ::sigh:: and even though I'm 19 yrs. older than you, posts about dating, and later on, about motherhood, where I was all tingly, and horrific, (hahaha) thinking "Oh, wow, I remember feeling JUST like that!!!<br /><br />I can assure you that when I'm SO rushed I can only afford time to read ONE blog (mentally slapping wrists in advance, "You're only reading ONE Blog, this morning, ya got that, lady?!") It's yours. Even though I hate DC. And also read blogs from places I adore, like from certain parts of France and Tuscany... And I've never read your blog and thought, "waste of time" - nevah!!! - now, at my busiest time of year, (harvesting, and puttin' up fer winter) you made this request for specific posts, and I find myself all "deer in headlights" like a guy who says to his lady love, "Oh darling, you're so BEAUTIFUL!" and then the girl closes her eyes and says, "Oh, really? What colour are my eyes?" <br />Sowwie.tamater sammichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11079343206229909686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-75568233468808181472010-08-15T18:40:16.046-04:002010-08-15T18:40:16.046-04:00Happy belated birthday!

Yo...Happy birthday - you look great! Love the hair.<br />Your titles. Your honesty. Your ability to weave a yarn out of seemingly nothing. Your punchlines - how its all sewn together. And your humour of course. Your ability to laugh at yourself and tell it how it is. The fart on the plane has got to be my fave!

In fact this post sparked a discussion with the girls one night when we were out and I have to say we were falling off our seats in the bar laughing at the various scenarios being concocted.Go-Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746808309929560250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-84415308639016411652010-08-14T20:34:22.134-04:002010-08-14T20:34:22.134-04:00Happy Birthday Lisa!!

Not to sound creepy (good luck, right?), but your life is part of my day.<br /><br />Hell, there's probably thousands of strangers out there like me who think that way, or just one, whatever. And it's not so much the subject of the post that I like, but rather the way you express it, and you probably can't help the way you express it. It's just you.<br /><br />I don't want to be unhelpful, so the posts that affect me the most are the occasional deep dark ones preceded by a warning. But in the interest of you having a good happy life, keep them occasional. And write more about awkward situations...or poop. No, awkward situations INVOLVING poop.JMHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10374530528745577289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-56121463997542129582010-08-14T00:12:53.399-04:002010-08-14T00:12:53.399-04:00Happy Birthday!!
