Recently you didn’t post something for over a twenty four hour period and I panicked thinking you might have stopped forever 😶

Some forevers are shorter than others, as any middles school romance would attest to 😉 That was my day off from writing, when I didn’t post. Being between projects right now, a state which sometimes induces great panic and restlessness within me (though I’ve gotten A LOT better), allows me time for smaller side projects, like writing specifically for the blog. I like to give myself specific assignments, this last one having to do with writing to photos and visual images, which I greatly enjoy, hence the blog-baked flurry. I also enjoy your takes on relationship, and self-actualization, and your self-empowered stance on Cran-Rasberry Snapple, indeed you are a liberated female drinker of the best stuff on earth 😉 CranRazz, your newest in a growing line of nicknames?

That you notice me and things I say feels good. In blogging, it’s the best feeling to be heard. 🙂

Ha to your first sentence, mostly humorous because of which I have a serious writing (middle school) crush on you. The things I typically find myself in when I find writers/authors I adore. I’m thinking that’s where the nerves and butterflies come from in your blogging presence. Haha. As well as I keep linking readers to your blog everywhere I do. 🤷♀️
Cranrazz, I think it’s my favorite so far. Whenever you add two zz’s to anything it sounds much cooler.

Thanks for the middle school crush. The little boy in me, gooey-centered as he is, still responds adoringly to things of that nature : ) As an Italian, the way to my heart is to my stomach, as a writer the way to my heart is to and through my imagination (and words). Typically, I don’t like to converse all that much through the comment section, or to engage in cross-currents of cyber-dialogue. Though, look, here I am doing it … with you . . . CranRazz … two zz’s does make a difference, and perhaps has the bestest ring of all your nicknamezzz…

I’ve started a response to this a few times. Lol. I can’t seem to get correct wording.
Let me just say that I did gather you’re not regularly a chatty Kathy, 😋 yet sometimes you might engage because you have with me. A thing I’m greatly appreciative of if not somewhat touched by.
And I do like stomachs 🤔 so if I’m ever given the opportunity I might have to cook something for you
