maybe
My record for the number of comments on a single post is 33. Not including giveaways, of course.
I have a post I wrote yesterday that has 32 comments as of right now. And I’ll be honest and say I’m getting all excited.
I admit to having a bit of a comment obsession. I don’t know why. I just do.
On another blog I read the author mentioned closing her comments for a little while.
My first thought was, why blog then?
Then my second thought was, Wait, that first thought makes me kinda seem a little self absorbed.
Then my third thought was, But still, why blog?
Yes. I’m a total mess.
Anyway…
Maybe nothing will happen.
Maybe it’s all over.
Maybe there is nothing more to say on that particular post subject.
But, maybe, just maybe there will be two more comments. Maybe that post will make We Are Culbertsons history.
Just maybe.

I like comments. Comments are nice because it lets you know you really aren’t talking to your self.
So, why would you turn off comments? Get a diary then I say. Blogs are for conversation. Unless the comments are getting kind of ugly…then I guess you’d want to turn them off.
I know, that’s what I was thinking.
Actually, I blogged for a long time before anybody actually read my blog. I’m not sure what kept me blogging. Maybe the idea that someday I’d get a comment…
I read a blog where the blogger turned off comments for Lent. Is that what you meant? It’s because she realized she was too attached to comment-affirmation.
I can see looking at comments that way. But when I look back at my old blog I’m glad I kept a record of things, so I look at my blog mostly as a way to keep a record of our lives. If no one ever reads it but us, I’m ok with that. But it *is* fun to have blog conversation.
No, the lady just didn’t know if she had time for continued comment moderation. She actually had a good reason.
I was just making a joke about how I view my own comments.
Oh, and it’s not do much comment affirmation for me, I just love some of the conversation that comes from it.
And the humor.
I have some very funny commenters.
Okay, maybe there is a little affirmation involved.
Maybe.
