More so than the ...That was all quite entertaining. More so than the lack of comments at my own comment-free blog (obviously). But names on blogs mean nothing, often, and your Petra could well be an old male sociology researcher gathering materials for his next paper on the role of the internet in identity crises. Or she could be an eight year old laughing at all you old farts taking her seriously. Or of course she could be some bitter sad bitch. Anyway, I hope you keep blogging (although the photo of your sunburned crack made me question that hope for a while)Andrewhttp://andrewmaclarenscott.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-47968523923776515082016-09-04T18:33:58.753+00:002016-09-04T18:33:58.753+00:00I am Jennifer:)I am Jennifer:)Yaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181961536405061470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-56118725206399756792016-09-04T18:33:21.898+00:002016-09-04T18:33:21.898+00:00I am Jennifer:)I am Jennifer:)Yaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181961536405061470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-20296005843380687972016-09-04T12:13:55.191+00:002016-09-04T12:13:55.191+00:00Must be Notes.... they cannot spell for shit!

I absolutely adore that. I have met so many who have become long distance friends......but it has also opened a vault of some who like to rant...madly rant ...it is so disturbing...but all we can do it delete or block them...its just that when it happens it's unsettling...what causes a person to unload all that shite????? Good with the bad I guess. The worst I ever received was to be told I should shoot myself in the head after a comment on guns...very touchy subject here in the U.S. That shook me up....but I'm over it...<br />Stupid people are just stupid.<br />Great people are just great and that's you !

I love your blog and it reminds me on a daily basis to be kinder and to take that extra moment with people. As T.L. Merrybard comments above 'lovely mix of the little 'mundane' moments that make life worth living, and deep thought and emotion'. I guess some people will always be bitter and jealous of those with richer lives.
