Question for Y'all

[puppetmaker]

The Inauguration was nice. Politics totally aside, it was a nice ceremony. The music was lovely. The President's speech was nice and to the point. He had great skills of oratory and a lovely speaking voice. The crowds behaved themselves for the most part. My friends in DC who were on the Mall and in their homes survived having that many more people in their city. I watched it with Peter while he wrote about it on his web log. I went to Caroline's school to help out in the library and the kids were talking about what they saw. They wanted books about Obama of which the librarian had a few both pictures and easy- reader which were quickly checked out as were the books on Martin Luther King Jr.

So who is going to NYCC? I might be there Friday. I will be there Saturday evening and Sunday. Saturday is dependent on a couple of factors.

I made turkey tetrazzini last night. It worked out pretty well. Peter cooked a turkey last week and we finished it out with that. My mom's receipt was used and enjoyed by all.

I have a bunch of stuff in my head. I am debating what I want to talk about so I leave y'all with a question. What do YOU read this web log for? What do I write that YOU like? Is there something you would like to see more of?

I look forward to your responses.

I am grateful for receipts that work on the first try.

Yup, other than the football stuff, I read everything (I'm sorry, I grew up in a state where basketball was the state religion, and I never converted).

I read it to hear about your life :)

I'll be at NYCC at some point--don't know when yet, but I'll be around.

I like reading about the kids and your volunteering and the every day stuff.

Michael and I will be doing our best to make to NYCC on Saturday. How will we find you and Peter if we do make it there?

As far as what I read your blog for, I started reading you from comments you made on others' blogs. I liked the way you ended your posts with "gratitudes"... I was in a rotten place in my life back then, and I started looking forward to your posts.

Hrmm... overall I have you friended because I like you & like the way you write.

I admit to also skipping past football. ::smiles::

I thought about going to NYCC, but the friend I was going to go with decided not to go and I can't honestly afford it anyway. Still hoping to go to Dragon Con in September. Will you be there?

I read your journal because I like the little windows into your life. I like reading about your theatre and puppetry experiences, and how Caroline and the rest of the family is doing.

So, I'm afraid that I'm not much help at finding a topic for this week's LJI. If it is any consolation, I'm having trouble figuring out what to write on, myself.

Oh, and I don't skip the football entries. I only skip entries when I'm skipping LJ in general for time and such, and then I skip to the LJ Idol entry so that I can vote. :-)

Yes, I read everything you write... I don't often comment because I don't often have something to say.

However, I'd be rather upset not to be able to read your posts.

No NYCC for me. Planning to be in New York in October, but doubt I'll be Stateside before then.

I may be at NYCC. Thanks for reminding me.

ETA: Working on getting free tickets from my employer. :)

[popfiend.livejournal.com]

No tickets.

Pretend I'm there to *hug* you.

ohhh turkey tetrazini! I love that on spaghetti.

The people on my friends page, including you, are read because I like the windows they open up into their worlds, good and bad. I appreciate or am intrigued by how they see and experience things that are familiar to me and things that I'll likely never see and do. And it's done with wit and style (when fitting). :)

I enjoy reading all of your entries, though I think the day to day stuff with Caroline is some of my favorite.

I also need to give a big thumbs up to your MMQB posts, I don't get to watch much football when I'm in a show but I'm still a fan, and it's fun to hear what someone (who isn't a sports commentator) has to say.
