Today I am featuring the best e-mail I have received lately.
I guess it seems a bit as if I am a raging egotist including this, but I really liked this letter and I wanted to share it with you.

Hello! I've enjoyed reading your book for a couple of days now. I'm not entirely sure why, but I've decided that that's not the important thing. I got your address from the Mumbles message and am so glad that I looked it up. I really only read a couple of on-line journals. I've gone through some of the web ring thingy, but most of them just don't hook me like Sage's did, and now yours :)

I never email people I don't know, but I was thinking about it last night, that if I ever did something like this (an online journal, I mean) I would love to get email. It's just that I always sound like an idiot when I'm talking to someone who I know doesn't know me. I mean, I have the benefit of knowing about you, but you don't know thing one about me. Does that make sense?

So, anyway, I only have access to email/internet at work, so reading your archives was a slight challenge. I would read something funny then switch to what I should be working on in Word so that if anyone came it looked like I was working. Only problem is I was laughing hysterically! I really choked up when I got to the part about your Dad. I just can't even imagine how hard and painful that would be. I liked what you said about how its important to say something even though you don't know what to say. I have an uncle in Seattle who has cancer, and I love him and his family very much, but when I think about calling, I get too scared that I will say the wrong thing. I think that I will be better about that now. Thank you for sharing that experience.

Anyway, (yes, I know I say that a lot), I just wanted to say hi, and sort of introduce myself, since I've never really done that before.
Are you proud its you? You should be.

Kara
