#71: Thank Y'all for Reading

I just wanted to dedicate this post to everyone who has encouraged me to continue blogging about my everyday experiences in "Daily Head Farts" and to thank you all for your continual support to keep on writing.


First, I want to thank Mr. Ferrell Datcher for even approaching me on the challenge of 100 Days of Writing, and although we both have not written continuously everyday for y'all to read, I believe this experience allows us to use the English language in both formal and informal ways to connect with our readers (when I say informal, I mean me because my grammar sucks).


Secondly, it was also an honor to be recognized by Davey D -  "a nationally recognized journalist, adjunct professor, Hip Hop historian, syndicated talk show host, radio programmer, producer, deejay, media and community activist" - on a post that I wrote a few weeks ago.  That was probably the first time that a post of mine have made it to the computers of his biggest fans, and I wanted to say thank you.   


And of course, a HUGE thank you to all the folks who have emailed me/messaged me/text me/called me/found another method of contacting me to let me know that you like my blog.  I really appreciate all of your kind words and the fact that I can crack a smile on your face with my stupidity and immaturity because I know as well as you do, that we all go through the same things at the end of the day and whether we know it or not, we're all connected through similar experiences.  Yes, even the awkward ones.


Thank you for allowing me to take out my frustrations and anger out on y'all on the world wide web because at the end of the day, life is humorous, life is crazy, and it's not worth putting that much energy into feeling sorry for yourself, and, thus, the creation of Daily Head Farts emerged.  This is my catharsis, and this is where I find myself saying, "fuck this, this is hilarious, and rather cry or get pissy about it, I'll laugh at it."  


Ok, and what's up with this...maybe I'm your guilty pleasure, I'm not sure, but I get a majority of the compliments when you folks are drunk. Why?! I say about 75% of my feedback comes from you drunkards...I know it's not a cool thing when you can admit and say..."I love reading your Daily Head Farts" =), I don't mind.  Kathy Griffin has her LBGTQ community, I have my drunkass community, I'll take what I can get.  I'm on the Z List, so it's all good.


I digressed, anyway, if my Mother can find life funny and enjoyable after enduring years of war, nursing and losing her Mother and Father before she turned 18, having everything she owned stolen by pirates to escape, losing her brothers, losing her first born, and being the only person in her big family who lived in America for 25 years, I sure in hell don't have anything to complain about.  Nothing.  



“A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs. It's jolted by every pebble on the road.”
 - Henry Ward Beecher


Ok, that's enough mushiness from me.


And now to complete this blog, I would like to give a huge F- YOU, to those teachers who didn't like my writing style because you know what, I don't care, and as long as I can connect through sharing my experiences with others, then I'm fine, and my words did its job.


Thank you again. And now please enjoy my dancing video that was done in San Antonio this weekend for my girl's bachelorette party! Yes, this was done with NO drinks in my system. Also, the dance move was inspired by Ferrell, the ladies you see in there are my line sisters Brenda, Jenny, and Nina. lol
