Commenter or Reader?

Do you read blogs and comment? or are you more like me? I read and remain silent.

Sure I have my opinions. Yes, I'm cheering you on or stomping my foot in objection. But I'm very quiet about it all. Yet, in some strange way it doesn't make sense. Putting it all out there is inviting people in. To comment. To agree. To disagree. To laugh. To cry. To nod. And the less favorable option of thinking that you are a total moron.

Logically I know this. However, I can't help but feel that I'm somewhat of a Peeping Tom .. err... Nix, to just read and go away. On the other hand I always look at it like there's a clique of people that meet up and do things IRL. I'm not a part of any such clique and so I'm the outsider, how dare I say anything? But you've put it out there. I have put it out there. Into the world of the unknown. Unknown world where people have opinions on things, or not.

I actually appreciate when people stop by and comment (hint-hint). I wonder why I feel like other bloggers would feel any different. I'm going to haul on my big girl drawers and go out there and participate dammit! Look out bloggers!
