Hear Ye, Hear Ye!

I hearby proclaim
that all the "followers" of
~ christa jean ~
are hereby disbanded
in a forthright manner!

Okay, so, I have to tell you that I lost 1 "follower" after my majorly intense post. Oh My! Now, who really knows if it coincided with that post or was just a random thing, but it made me worry. Don't laugh! Don't you remember back in High School when you wanted to be popular and make everyone like you and not be upset with you ever? I do!

When I originally saw the "Follow Me" option, I thought, "Well, that seems rather silly... "
But I clicked "Follow" on the blogs that I liked to let them know "Hey, I like you!"
I also liked that it put all the blogs I was "following" on the front page of my Google Reader page. Easy as pie!

Then I got to thinking that I too should add that "gadget" to my blog, just for fun, ya know. And then people actually started "following". Totally Cool!

What is it about women? Why is it that now when I visit a blog and I see 369 followers, my 15 pales in comparison? You know what, when I really think about it, I DON'T want 3 hundred followers reading about me and my life and my dirt. Maybe someday I'll write a book and people can read that, but here and now, I'm just fine with a handful. I don't like the feeling that I need to have more followers, that's just plain silliness!

All that blathering to say, I appreciate you, my faithful friends!
But "Follow Me" no more.
You can still read and comment, of course! I won't be sad about that.

Hahahaha! Was it you SuperDave?
You're not supposed to reveal your secret identity!

Really, though, my peeps! I don't want you to think this post is saying I'm gonna quit on ya now!

I really did appreciate all those who clicked on my "follow" button... you made me feel good. I just felt like it was turning into something I didn't want it to in my heart. I had been thinking of deleting the gadget for a while now.

No hard feelings (SuperDave, if it was you)!!!
