Hello my lovelies. It is January, and we all know what that means, right?

Just in case you have no idea what I am talking about, this is the day for you readers to come out of the woodwork. Say anything you would like. You can just say hi. If you need a prompt feel free to tell me something you like. It can be anything. Please just say hi and let me know you are here.
Thanks!
Sarah
Special thanks to Chris for reminding me that it is delurking day and Aimee for the art.

I’m not a lurker, but i’m de-lurking anyway

I check for your posts everyday. keep up the great writing.
January 14th, 2010 at 6:14 am, Linda Says:
You are one of my favorite bloggers to read. Your kids crack me up and make me think that my kids aren’t the only nutjobs in the world.
January 14th, 2010 at 6:21 am, Jenny Says:
The art is fabulous. It gives your header competition for my favorite blog art.
January 14th, 2010 at 7:46 am, Jamie Says:
Nod.

I’m hardly a lurker, but Hey!
January 14th, 2010 at 8:05 am, Chris Says:
Happy Delurking Day!

Hi there!
January 14th, 2010 at 8:37 am, Hilary Says:
Thanks for letting us know that today’s Delurking Day! Also, tomorrow is Friday AND a three day weekend will be upon us. Rejoice!
January 14th, 2010 at 8:52 am, Jessica Says:
Hello!
January 14th, 2010 at 8:57 am, Corinne Says:
Dunno if I count as a lurker, but I rarely comment…
Miss you guys! Hope everything is well up in NoVa
January 14th, 2010 at 8:59 am, Rik DeVoe Says:
Damn! You good….You Go Girl!
Now that I have delurked, I will return to lurking among the cyber-space files in your computer.
January 14th, 2010 at 9:01 am, Julie Says:
Hi!
January 14th, 2010 at 9:04 am, LauraC Says:
I comment occasionally. I know I left some rambling comment once that sounded very stalkerish and then I felt weird after that because I’m not stalkerish. But then I guess stalkers never really think they’re stalkers. Okay now I’m feeling like a weirdo again.
I was going to ask on your thong post why you decided to go with white thongs under your uniform. I would think that a white thong under white pants would clearly visibly be a thong. But then I’m in the camp of not understanding thongs for working out because I sweat a lot when I exercise and I need underwear to absorb the sweat or else I would have a thong print on white pants, which to me would be infinitely worse than my underwear falling down.
PS. Your copyright date says 2008. How’s that for an even weirder comment?
January 14th, 2010 at 9:07 am, Cara Says:
I only comment from time to time, but I do read every day. Keep it up! And I’m totally going to kick your ass in the Loser Moms challenge.
January 14th, 2010 at 9:14 am, Therese Says:
I comment, but not nearly often enough. I’ll say I very much enjoy your stories. I have a twin brother and it cracks me up (and brings back good memories) to hear about the antics of your children!
January 14th, 2010 at 9:22 am, Roger Says:
I shall leave a comment today, but only because you asked nicely.
January 14th, 2010 at 9:38 am, Redd Says:
I like cookies!
January 14th, 2010 at 9:45 am, Dustin Says:
Hi! I’ve commented in the past, but not for some time, so I think I qualify as a lurker. Thanks for the entertainment!
January 14th, 2010 at 9:46 am, Ashley Says:
I like to make s’mores by replacing the hershey’s chocolate with chocolate cake frosting to make it more melty and delicious.
January 14th, 2010 at 10:06 am, Cute~Ella Says:
Oh it’s been a long time! But I read and love the stories of the kids.
January 14th, 2010 at 10:06 am, Sara Says:
HI…now I am no longer a lurker
January 14th, 2010 at 10:08 am, Headless Mom Says:
Hi!
January 14th, 2010 at 10:33 am, Lisa Says:
De-lurking as instructed.
January 14th, 2010 at 10:36 am, Princess Sparklepants Says:
I am deathly afraid of robots and birds, but I have a soft spot for little people and also for giraffes. With their lovely, giraffey eyelashes.
January 14th, 2010 at 10:36 am, Melissa Says:
Thank you, now I am going to have that song in my head all morning!
January 14th, 2010 at 10:40 am, mommymae Says:
is there anyone home?
January 14th, 2010 at 10:49 am, tallulah Says:
Delurking.
January 14th, 2010 at 10:59 am, Lumpyhead's Mom's friend Sarah Says:
I like being a lurker, since any comment I could add would never be as funny as your post.
January 14th, 2010 at 11:02 am, Jen Says:
I’m not exactly a lurker but I don’t comment as often as I should. I suffer from Chronic Commenter Anxiety and also laziness.
January 14th, 2010 at 11:16 am, Mel Says:
Helloooooooooooooooooooo
I thought delurking week was the 4th–10th. I have it wrong every year.
Did you see that Josh started Not-for-Profit Dad again?
January 14th, 2010 at 11:18 am, Melissa Says:
delurking. hello.
January 14th, 2010 at 11:28 am, Ginny Says:
Don’t know how I found you but love your blog- you are hilarious. Your underwear post made me laugh out loud in my office. But I am with the person above- I’m not so sure about white pants + any thong. Not that it mattered of course in your situation- sliding off pretty much trumps any other issues.
January 14th, 2010 at 11:52 am, Anne Says:
Hi there! *waves*
I didn’t even remember there *was* a de-lurking week/day/whatever, until the posts started popping up in my reader this morning.
But here I am, delurking!
January 14th, 2010 at 11:56 am, Issa Says:
I try to comment sometimes. But um…hi. Hey, did you hear that they stopped filming Top Chef, until Padma has her baby? Isn’t that cheating? If they all get to go home for three months in between?
January 14th, 2010 at 12:15 pm, Sarah Says:
Hi! Love your writing, but I can never think of clever comments, so I just lurk. Happy delurking!
January 14th, 2010 at 12:17 pm, tonya Says:
Hi! What to say, what to say…oh yeah, I have been coveting your new hair cut for a while now. LOVE IT!
January 14th, 2010 at 12:37 pm, Kate Says:
Greetings and salutations!
January 14th, 2010 at 12:58 pm, joanne Says:
absolutely love your blog. i look forward to every new post!
January 14th, 2010 at 1:08 pm, June Says:
I don’t think I’ve ever commented before – hi!
January 14th, 2010 at 1:24 pm, Laurie Says:
I never communicate with you. It’s sad, really, the distance. Thank you for the encouragement.
Also I disagree with Lumpyhead’s Mom although she is nice to say that and think she should comment every day.
January 14th, 2010 at 1:31 pm, OHmommy Says:
I’m here.
January 14th, 2010 at 1:42 pm, MommyGeekology Says:
Hi!

January 14th, 2010 at 1:50 pm, Deanna Says:
I’m officially de-lurked now. Thanks for making a mother of twins laugh on a regular basis!
January 14th, 2010 at 1:52 pm, Laura Says:
Hiya, Always checking in and not sure I have ever commented…todays the perfect day!
January 14th, 2010 at 1:53 pm, Heather Says:
Hi! I am back reading in the blogosphere and glad to see you are still here and funny as ever!
January 14th, 2010 at 1:59 pm, Nicole M. Says:
It’s nice to know I’m not the only crazy (yet totally cool!) mom with weird kids! Love your blog!
January 14th, 2010 at 1:59 pm, Habbala Says:
Hello Sarah!
My favorite thing right now is the Glee Station on Pandora, Trader Joes oatmeal, and a cute boy at church.
That counts right?
January 14th, 2010 at 2:29 pm, Gwen Says:
Happy Delurking Day. I meant to comment yesterday, congratulations on getting back into music. That is my goal for next year.
January 14th, 2010 at 2:31 pm, Nancy Says:
Just another member of the thong, uh, I mean throng of your fans. Delurking for a quick “hi”!
January 14th, 2010 at 2:32 pm, Audrey Says:
Hello! Your blog is one of the few “mommy blogs” I read these days as I am busy chasing around my twin 18 month olds. I just can’t relate to moms of singletons that blog, I am on another planet! Hope you are well and enjoying this “warm” weather on the east coast today.
January 14th, 2010 at 2:36 pm, Lori in Denver Says:
Nodding.
January 14th, 2010 at 2:51 pm, Sweetney Says:
You still have the best blog banner ever.
January 14th, 2010 at 3:00 pm, Wife and Mommy Says:
I don’t really lurk…but hello anyway! When can we have breakfast/lunch/coffee/dessert?
January 14th, 2010 at 4:14 pm, Momo Fali Says:
I’m going to kick your ass for getting Pink Floyd stuck in my head.
January 14th, 2010 at 4:41 pm, ANTM Says:
Hi!
January 14th, 2010 at 4:49 pm, MA Smith Says:
I only semi-lurk, but hey.
January 14th, 2010 at 5:05 pm, St Says:
Not sure if I’ve commented so, hey!
January 14th, 2010 at 5:06 pm, The Casual Perfectionist Says:
Happy Delurking Day!
January 14th, 2010 at 5:20 pm, Shannon Says:
hello…hello…
just wanted to add…
do you know how hard it is to type when the cat is trying to get you to pet her…
Just saying!
January 14th, 2010 at 5:20 pm, April Says:
I’m not a lurker…But HELLO!!!!
January 14th, 2010 at 5:30 pm, sararachelle Says:
Hi! Since I never comment, it’s about time I finally say thanks for recommending the “HUG” book! My son loves this book so much, we have been “reading” it almost daily.
January 14th, 2010 at 5:35 pm, Angella Says:
Hola, sweetness!
xoxo
January 14th, 2010 at 6:03 pm, Stimey Says:
Jeebus, I’ve delurked a lot of places today. Although I’m not sure it counts as delurking here.
January 14th, 2010 at 6:47 pm, roger Says:
Shouldn’t the dude in the logo be facing the other way? Unless he’s got some kind of weird @ss window in his trench coat. I mean, not that I’m an expert in flashing people.
January 14th, 2010 at 7:35 pm, Miche Says:
No idea how I came across your blog many moons ago – but it’s now one of my daily reads.
January 14th, 2010 at 7:38 pm, Moe Says:
Delurking from Texas! Love your site!

Delurking. Your posts always brighten my day.
January 14th, 2010 at 8:33 pm, Tracy K Says:
Found you a while ago…love your header!!
My grandsons like me to click on your blog so they can “see the kid blow up the Mom’s head”…they have no idea how funny you are!! Lucky for me…I do!! Have a fabulous de-lurker day!
January 14th, 2010 at 8:47 pm, Jan @ Struck by Serendipity Says:
Ah, yes. I think this is the 3rd annual one I’ve done here under various blogger identities. It’s become part of my annual traditions, I suppose.
January 14th, 2010 at 8:51 pm, Jenni Says:
boo!
January 14th, 2010 at 9:10 pm, steff Says:

hi
January 14th, 2010 at 10:07 pm, Cheryl Says:
There’ll be no more “Ahhh, ahh, ahh…Is there any one at home?”
Oh wait, I wasn’t supposed to sing the next line?
Not so much a lurker, but here to be accounted for.
January 14th, 2010 at 10:49 pm, Kristin Says:
Here.
January 15th, 2010 at 1:11 am, Lara Says:
I’m here and I’m nodding.

Delurker Day. I don’t know about this. But what the heck. Hi!

Hi! I like swimming.

me me me me! I’m here!
January 15th, 2010 at 10:55 am, Jess Says:
I commented for the first time the other day so I guess maybe that was my official delurking day. Keep up the great writing!

Are you becoming comfortable?

Hi Sarah. I’m still lurking, even though I stopped writing myself over a year ago! Always love your posts.
January 15th, 2010 at 9:58 pm, Suebob Says:
Now I’m jealous of how many people delurked over here.
January 16th, 2010 at 10:46 am, Tuesday Says:
I am late but I swing by every week!
Hi!
January 16th, 2010 at 7:44 pm, Lizzle Says:
nod and a wave!! Back to hiding now.
January 18th, 2010 at 7:36 am, Mac and Cheese Says:
S’up.
I actually wanted to leave a comment on your post regarding your son’s spelling of “Jack”, but it’s really early and that part of my brain isn’t available yet. I decided to delurk instead.
January 19th, 2010 at 1:14 pm, Jill Says:
A day (or two) late, and a dolalr (or two) short. Oops. Missed de-lurking day.
You make me laugh on a regular basis.
January 23rd, 2010 at 6:18 pm, Stephanie N Says:
I’m still here! And I still think you’re a badass. I read you regularly (albeit sometimes tardily), chuckle frequently, guffaw occasionally, and comment infrequently. Umm… and I had lasagna for lunch. Yeah, can’t think of anything interesting to say at the moment. Perhaps this is why I mostly lurk.
January 25th, 2010 at 1:58 pm, Frank Says:
I’m a bit late, but better late then never. A Happy Belated De-Lurking Day! We’re neighbors of sorts.
