short list-long story

yeah, so apparently i'm "add a video" illiterate. i'm gonna keep it up though just to keep up the suspense and leave you all wondering what it could be...insert evil villan laugh here...okay, on to today's subject. i've come to the sad and devastating conclusion that everyone else knows a lot more people than i do. or, even sadder, they are liked by more people. what i'm trying to say is that my list of "pals" in the margin of my page is considerably smaller than all the other blogs out there. do i suck? i know what you're going to say...oh tara, people like you, you're great blah blah blah...yeah, prove it! you know, i really can probably blame myself because, speaking of sucking...i do when it comes to keeping in touch. yeah, you know who you are--namely everyone who reads this most likely. i'm sorry...again...i guess i can just hope that someday i'll be really funny so people that don't even know me will stop by. probably not, but a girl can dream, right? the truth is, the people that are on my list, be it short or not, are wonderful and have definitly given me a laugh when i needed to cry and helped me cry when i felt like i was supposed to be laughing. thanks dudes. hey, and if you know anyone i could add to my list just to make me feel like i know people, that would be cool too.

Okay, you don't suck. I read your blog, and I'm not on your list of pals. Add me please! I read your blog all the time. I got the link from Jardine's Comments page. This is Hna. Graves (Camille) from the mission. You have an adorable family, and I love your sense of humor!

you see tara, i was going to recommend camille. but that's not what i was going to say, what i was going to say is...if it makes you feel better: everyone feels the same way. not about you being a dork, but about wanting long lists and strangers to lurk their site. but then you know what, when i see friends with long lists then i wonder...so am i just another one of their "friends" or are we really friends. and with some people you can never tell. (sometimes they include people you mutually knew that you thought, well, lame & as you can tell from today's blog i am not into being kimmy gibler)...so you see, if you are the somewhat jealous type...like me, short lists make people like me feel special to be included. there are pro's and con's to everything.

my favorite Tara...remember not everyone is as cool as you about blogging!!!! Just remember that. You are cool because you blog. You have lots of friends, but they may not be as technologically savy as you. SO RECOGNIZE YOUR SKILL and say "way to go I am a winner!" And p.s I have always felt that it is better to have a few really good, awesome, super cool, amazing friends, then to have lots of mediocre acqiauntences. That's right I am so wise. I love you.
