#443 comments?

I'm fascinated and addicted to the Stats tab of my blog. Has it always been there? Probably, but I just noticed it the other day. I know it's the world wide web and all that, but to think that someone in Ukraine looked at my blog is just about the coolest thing ever! Hello, Sweden!! How you doin' Poland?!

Then I thought about it all some more and I was sad that nobody comments, except occasionally my main six or seven readers. And when I say readers I mean family. A few times I have had someone I don't know personally post a comment on the blog and I admit that it kind of freaks me out and thrills me at the same time.

I further thought about the times that I've visited a non-family member blog. I usually don't comment either. What is the etiquette? It feels sort of like an invasion of privacy or something, doesn't it? I guess we all put our words and thoughts out there and anyone in the whole wide world can read about your business, but to comment seems so invasive or something. Still, I've made a decision that I will post a comment on each blog I read. I started with Mom and Sister today. I think I'll go visit a couple of random blogs, using the "Next Blog" feature on Blogger, and post a comment if someone has posted within the past two days.

Is that weird? I'll let you know. In the meantime, feel free to comment!

I couldn't read your blog yesterday, all I got was the background and randiom letters!
But now reading it, I will give my opinion. I think you should make a comment when soimething merits a comment lol. I sometimes get disappointed if I write something and nobody comments, and yet I am also not commenting as much as maybe I should. I think there's no right or wrong on it :)
