So I feel kindof creepy right now. You see, I love to read people's blogs- especially people I know. So if I find a link on a blog to someone else I know's blog, I'm going to read it. And depending on how interesting/how often it is updated, I will read if often. Well, I was reading my cousin (in-law)'s blog just now and she was talking about how they are thinking of making their blog private because people keep looking at it that they don't know and it makes them uncomfortable and they feel like they are being stalked and such. They have a website tracker so they know all this stuff. Anyway, I'm pretty sure they are talking about me! When I have a free minute I like to read blogs and I'm usually reading the same ones over and over. But I don't want to say hi in their comments because they'll probably have no idea who I am. I get really shy around my cousins for some reason so I don't really talk to them at family gatherings. Anyway, I don't know where I am going with this, but for some reason don't want to say anything because I know they won't know who I am right away and it embarrasses me I guess. It's like when I am in a store and I see someone I know but I know there is no way they will remember me so I don't say hi... Oh gosh. I am sounding really stuck up! Now I feel bad. I just don't have good social skills. I should work on that. And I should just not be afraid and say hi anyway. Ok, enough with my nonsensical ramblings! And you can read my blog whenever you want. Just don't stalk me. :)

OK remember when you came out of the stalking closet on my blog (so to speak?) I was totally flattered that you wanted to read my blog. I loved it. And I don't think you're creepy at all. People who have blogs that they don't want anyone to read are stupid (sorry Anna's cousin in law) if you want that, it's called a journal, not a blog.
Also, the creepy anonymous comments are from people who write in other languages or say "I've been reading your blog all day every day and I really want to meet you. How about the Denny's by the freeway at 2AM on Thursday?" That's creepy. "Hi, this is your cousin-in-law Anna, and I'm so glad to see updates on your life so I can get to know you better" is NOT creepy. That is all.
Hi! This is Jessica, Eric's wife! I feel so bad that you think I was talking about you! I wasn't in ANY way. To be honest I didn't even know that you were looking at our blog. Eric of course remembers you and we would love to keep in touch, can we add you to our blog? As for our blogger stalker that we are talking about, its just one person who enjoys clicking on all our (or my husbands) pictures, our comments, and our friends. I know that our blog is public and I know a lot of people who we don't know look at it. That doesn't bother me. That little note was intended for one person, and she knows who she is. I wrote that in frustration, and all our family and friends think I'm talking about them! That's not what I was trying to do!
I'm so sorry that you thought it was you! I didn't mean to make you feel creepy! YOUR NOT. I feel really flattered that you enjoy looking at our blog and I hope we can stay in touch. Eric said he didn't know that you had a little guy, and congratulations!
I think I'll stalk you. It would be fun. :)
Hey Anna! So I found you from Jessica and Eric's blog, and I'm so glad. I haven't seen pictures of your little guy yet. He is precious.
I thought your stalker post was hilarious. Remember me? Your cousin Marisa? Ha, I hope you do! I remember holding you on Grandma Stobbe's couch when you were just a few days old. I was totally enamored.
Keep all the great pictures coming.
