Trying to kill time here people

I'm killing time here, checking my blog to see if anybody is out there. I need to go do something so I can keep busy until it is time to leave for my ultrasound at 1. Checking my blog isn't helping. I can't help but notice that LOTS of people have stopped by but very few comments.

Call me a "comment whore" but I can't help but wonder?

What happens when you people read this shit?

My best guess is that it is too hard to think of something good to say. That happens to me when I read other people's blogs. But then I think, "well they won't know that I've come if I don't say something."

Just say something. You don't have to try to comfort me. NOTHING will actually comfort me at this point. But knowing that you are there and with me will help. What's the point of being here if I don't know that you've been here?

I am also a comment whore - and I get less comments than you, so I have no sympathy for the comments part!

I am thinking of you today (as I said in my last comment!)

I think, to some extent, we're all comment whores. I mean...we want our readers to like us, and tell us so. Sometimes it is for advice....Sometimes it is just to know 'someone' is listening.

I wish you luck today, and uh, when you started talking about your "tooth" all I could think about was that part of "My big fat greek wedding" where her aunt talks about a lump in her neck with teeth and hair. Not the nicest thing to say, but whatever, it may make you laugh. And that's good.

I'm here. Wormy legs make it hard to think straight. I am thinking of you, though.

I'm here. And I'm sorry. It takes too much energy to come up with anything to say these days, let alone anything positive. I AM thinking of you and wishing you all the best.

I am here. I was here earlier, too, and didn't comment. Sorry. (And I need to figure out how to tell how many people visit my blog ...)

But I am thinking of you. And I have every confidence that you are going to see a healthy, thriving Sprout on that u/s today.

I'm just getting caught up on my blog reading after being gone for so long (a whole 4 DAYS!!!)

Anyway, when I read what you wrote to your cousin, I cried. When I read what she wrote back, I sobbed. When I read of the possible grossness on your ovary I laughed (sorry) and then I thought more about it and felt vomitous, too.

Hoping for good news at this ultrasound...

I'm reading all you have to say. I like to have comments on my blog because it makes me feel like people really care. I care, and I hope that your u/s goes well and you see a happy live baby with a nice hb.

Dale of mole started the practice of putting (o) on a blog to say he had read it, but didn't have any real comment to make. It's like leaving a stone at a Jewish gravesite. (Okay, a morbid origin but a great idea!)

I am here as well, called out of the lurkers shadows for exactly the same reasons as you listed ( not feeling a need to comment since i can't imagine having anything useful or relevant to say ) but I also feel the same way about my "online diary http://wendchymes.diaryland.com, noone ever comments and yet I can trace the visitors on my site meter and always wonder WHO would POSSIBLY be interested in my boring life... "

I wish you all the best, am thinking good thoughts for you, and check in on you, often, to try and send some positive vibes your way. and here, to listen to your story and admire your courage, share your pain, and hope for your miracle. to come soon !

I have been here. But I don't comment on many people's blogs because I am either so pressed for time while my babies nap that I just can't or else I feel like I have nothing to say that would help. I don't get a lot of comments on my blog either, but I figure that's mostly because it's kind of boring. Your blog is not boring at all, just the opposite. Anyway, I'm thinking of you and your baby and hoping for the very, very best.

i like the (o) suggestion for when one is too addled to know what to say. just found you today...i have a lot of empathy for where you are, and fingers crossed for lots of nothing but healthy baby-ness (on both fronts your family's working on) from here on in.

i blog on wordpress rather than blogger (insert lightning striking my post!) so i'm at cribchronicles.com if you'd like to help me become a comment whore, too. :)

I can't even figure out how to tell if people have been visiting or not. So you are ahead of me... on the other hand, do i really want to know?

I'm coming out of lurkdom to comment! (I found your blog via a comment you left on Manuela's blog at Thin Pink Line.)

I wish you the best!
