Hi all!
So I'm finally going to make good on my promise: my giveaway starts now!
I've packed up little presents to send to you, my delightful readership, as tokens of my deep appreciation. There's something about the relative anonymity of the internet that continues to amaze and comfort me. I've shared more with perfect strangers than I have my own family, and, incredibly enough, a lot of you have showed me more support and love than I could ever have hoped for.
As I said before, my readership is tiny, but thoughtful; it's the perfect illustration of quality over quantity. I started this blog over a year ago thinking no one would ever be driven to actually read this, hence the title. However, I feel as though I've made friends here, like-minded women (and the occasional man) who hear where I'm coming from and care enough to present their own unique point of view. It warms my cold, dead heart to know that there are people out there who read what I write and are so moved to chime in with a thoughtful remark or motion of support. My heart is so full, and it you have all filled it.
Now it's my turn to give back. I was planning on divulging the contents of my care packages, but I think keeping it a secret is much more fun, no? (If you do want something specific, like flavoured spam, let me know!)
A few guidelines, however: only regulars apply, here. If you're a lurker, I'm sorry, but I don't have a package for you. Don't let that dissuade you from delurking -- there may be a tiny token in the post for you, too! If you've commented with some regularity, then this is all for you. Send your mailing addresses to goodbyeroosevelt@gmail.com preferably by Wednesday, 3 June 2009*.
Alright, my lovelies! Email me and watch your mailbox!

*This date, although soon, is not entirely arbitrary. I'm moving back to the mainland on Friday, and will therefore be car-less on Wednesday. I need your addresses before then in order to mail them from Honolulu. If you miss the deadline, fear not -- I'll send them from California instead.

im sorry i missed your deadline. i was without internet for over a week & got way behind on my reading!
thank you for all your wonderful blogs--i'll never forget your letter to santa for a pygmy hippo & your pretty pink porpoise spouting rainbows!
yay!
hey lady, i just gave you the "you are a great read" award!
Aw, I have been a lurker but as this seems to be a turning point for you (what with the graduating!!) I will let you know that I adore your blog, and I love to read it!
That's a sweet idea and I like your "quality over quantity" view. Sometimes I get caught up if readership drops, but then I just breathe and say the loyal will remain and in the end none of it really matters!
