This means you!
I try to keep up with everyone reading my blog, and if I can track you back to YOUR blog, I put you in my bloglines list and read you. It's, like, community, dude. But I can't build a community if y'all lurk. Especially in the case of this "Where I Knit" deal, I WANT to see the photos, so make sure I know where they are, huh? Drop me a line!
And FYI, consider putting your e-mail addy in your profile. Odds are good I'll e-mail back if I have anything to say, and can track you down. (I always leave my e-mail on blogs, and you'd be AMAZED at who I hear back from. Many published authors I'd think have no time for lil' old me. But they answer.) The e-mail never shows in the blog comments, just on your profile, which I can track to from the comments. I've gotten a couple really cool penpals this way; you could be next. IF I KNEW WHAT YOUR E-MAIL ADDY WAS.
I've never gotten spammed for having my e-mail in my profile, or even on my blog, right there at the bottom of the page. No, I don't have any special spam filters on my computer.
And if you don't have a profile or a blog, e-mail me and say hello. I'm not gonna get mad. Honest. Several readers here have done so, and I've been downright pleasant. (Okay, so I teased Bells a little bit about her math skills. But in a nice way. Really.)
So. Contacts, people, contacts.
This concludes my drugged ramblings for today. Thank you, and good night. Pass the damn painkillers.

so how do I leave my email such that no one else but you can see it?
You know, now that you mention it, I don't think blogger allows that; you have to make a profile and put your e-mail in that.
Sorry.
How about e-mailing me to say hi? LOL I'll edit the post to make myself sound less stupid.
Damn drugs.
You can put in a link at the botton of your blog that'll give a direct link to your email
You just add an html element,and in the little editing window thingy, write your email addy in the text box, highlight it, make it a hyperlink and type in "mailto:youraddy@here.com" in the space for the url.
It gives you the little link like at the bottom of my blog.
If I'm not exactly clear, email me, seeing as I went to all the trouble to work out how to do it!
Oh, and if you edit your profile, you can check a box to show your email. People will have to check your profile to find it.
Since the great Blogger upgrade of '06, the email links seem to have disappeared. Now I just get "no reply" in the address section.
But I'm workin' on it!!
I can vouch for this. She only teases a little. :-)And the math teasing is WELL deserved!
I know you already saw my sit and knit photo and I would've commented sooner but blogger wouldn't let me. You are always welcome at my blog and I can vouch for you as a terrific correspondent.
I love the baby, the cat and the knitting!
All right, all right, I will de-lurk! Geesh! :) Just wanted you to know how much I enjoy reading your blog. It's one of my daily fixes. Since I follow directions well, I also put a photo of my "knitting spot" on my blog (www.thefoxxyfiles.blogspot.com). So there you go.
PS. I think you have the cutest baby in the world!!
Hey so I'm a lurker and hear your call... http://bhuidhe.blogspot.com/ .... And you do have a very cute babe, not as cute as mine of course, but I'm biased :D
Ok I've made a few lame ass comments before but I just started my blog and it's very sad looking and it has a lame ass name.I'm trying to think of something more.... more.
Anyway I love the baby pictures and I got here from one of your articles on Knitty.
I'm watching the progress of the steeked jacket with interest -no time to knit along. A guy at work and his wife just had twins and seems like half the place is expecting. I see a lot of baby sweaters in my future.
Great blog. I just have to laugh at some of the baby photos. Mine are old enough to be married. (Can you say July?!)
I'm located here.
I get it-- less lurking, more writing. Interesting concept, I must say.
My "where I knit" photo is now up! And for meail action, I'll just write it the way we do it over on Livejournal--- jilliana.banana at gmail dot com.
once i tried to send You an email with a pic of a scarf. i used the nice pattern "a scarf for ally" from your blog :) . now i try (not with great success, but i try) to make my own blog, there is the pic. i just love Your writing, You made me laugh a lot of times. Thank You!
Does anybody but me hate Blogger Beta with a passion heretofore reserved for tacky, Las-Vegas style Glitterspun shawls? Only me? Okay...I'll go home and post my 'where I knit' picture now and skulk in the lurkers corner, sneaking cyber-chocolates and reading htmls...just saying...Anyway, I think Julie knows where to find me...and I'm getting my e-mail now, so all is good... (Enjoy the painkillers for me, Julie--between my tweaked neck and this cold I'm getting and my undying, star-bright hatred for my students this school year, I can only wish for some hospital issued meds...)
Hello Julie
I've been lurking for a few months - ever since I learned to knit (I've crocheted all my life, but now I'm taking up knitting and sewing).
I LOVE reading your blog - I look forward to it.
You have definitely helped to convert me to knitting - and I'm even considering a blog.
I also covet your steeked jacket, but I'm a scared beginner knitter :)
-Jennifer
i love reading your blog -- i'm just not a big commenter. :D
Now that blogger has switched over to using my google account, I think I've gotten more email from my postings....
Off to knit group this morning; we're doing a knit-along (major peer pressure) for the KnitPicks Palette Fair Isle Cardi. I can't wait to see how the others are doing. :)
