I'm just a newbie?

By
Real Estate Attorney

Well... well... well.... (or as I like to say, "three holes in the ground")....

So this is Active Rain.  I've heard alot about this place.  I hear it's a good place to jot down your thoughts, to read about all kinds of things and to maybe even make a friend or two.

I think I'll give this blogging thing a try... maybe post a thought every now and then.  Although it looks as though I have alot of points, I think that I would be considered a newbie.... having just woken up from a long slumber of In-the-Rain-Inactivity. 

I think it's time to get Rained on again.  Will people notice I'm back?  Will my friends, that I've left out in the rain for so long, come back to read?  I hope so.

To AR and my friends... as Eric Clapton says, "Hello Old Friend".

I was just looking at my subscribed blogs the other day and realized that you hadn't posted in a while.  I think what happens is that newbies get hooked by the points, either they burn out and move on, or you realize that this is not important, step back and morph yourself into a better blogger.

I thought you were a pretty good blogger to being with, so I am interested to see what you are going to morph into...

Martin, welcome to blogging. Just shake off the rust (from being inactive in the Rain) and start writing. :)

Teri - It's good to be back and I hope to be Active in the Rain again.

Peter - Nice to meet you and yes.... you should expect more of that.

Deborah - Thanks.  I'm hoping to return but not in the same crazy capacity.

Lorinda - Thanks.  I always try to have a good day.

Terri - Nice to meet you.  Thanks.

Konnie - Yes... but the soap opera's are less addicting!

BLR - I thought you ditched this place and ran away?  Glad to know I won't be the only wise guy here!

Melina - Very true.  I think I was a little of both when I joined.  Don't look, I don't like to morph in public!

Elaine - Thanks Elaine.  I was amazed at how many comments I received on this post after being gone so long.  Um... sky... airplanes... clouds.... BLR Guys head  :-)

Lisa - Had to stick my head in a vat of beer to put out my ears!  All is fine now.  Thanks!

Chris - Thanks.  It's nice to be back.

Rich - Thanks.

Chris - Ah... a new face.  Thanks.

Debra - I've been hiding under the bed.... but it seems safe to come out now.  Thanks.

Robert - Thanks.  (love the 'backward' humor!)

Melissa - Thanks!!!  I've missed the rain and my AR friends.

Joan - Ah... so many adventures.  Besides the rafting the grand canyon on a boogy board and climbing Everest in a bathing suit.... lifes been pretty quite.

Steve - Just like the Tin Man... rust is falling off as I type.
