Salutations, World
It’s me, Charlotte. Just kidding.
Earlier in the week, I posted this as a gift for all (4) of my loyal readers: http://rhodeislandread.blogspot.com/2010/02/chicken-surprise-for-loyal-readers-only.html
I spent a lot of time on it and I thought everyone would love it and we could have a lot of deep conversations over all the great blogs out there and further the character development of Pearl Annabelle Lafleur. But nobody read it. I waited two whole days. This is me waiting:
So then I posted this: http://rhodeislandread.blogspot.com/2010/02/well-isnt-it-ironic-little-too-ironic.html
to remind my loyal readers to not take me for granted because I do have feelings and all, and also to alert them to the original post. I could have just sent a direct email to all four of them. Since one of them is my daughter, I could have just said something to her. But I like to do things the hard way whenever possible so writing a second post that, as fate would have it, no one would read within the next 24 hours, seemed like the way to go. Here I am waiting for someone to read my second post and not getting any younger:
And then I began posting my own comments because nobody was out there. They were all busy fawning over their Valentine’s Day roses, I guess:
Get it ??
Anyway….
But then, Anonymous saved me from myself. Anonymous left a comment:

Chicken,
Stop drinking the bong water. Anna, Alanis, and Tiger do not read your blog. I do, however, and I am way better than any of them.
And now enquiring Chickens want to know…Who was Anonymous??
My first thought was:
of course and FINALLY. But reality hit and I realized Bruce is probably a little too busy to go about searching for the best hidden blog on the blogosphere.
So then I thought:
He got my tweet and decided to check in? Prince would definitely think he was “way better”, so that part made sense. But then I realized that Prince is so “Way Better” that he would not be looking on anyone’s blog but his own.
Okay, not a Rockstar. That leaves friends and bloggers. I have my suspicions.
Come forth Oh Anonymous and be immortalized and rewarded.

Four Dinners cares about chickens. He often has them in vindaloo sauce.

Thanks Boss. That is a rocking picture of you, no? It is almost, but not quite, as charming as 4D X, which made me laugh RIGHT OUT LOUD all alone. I love when that happens. 4D X, I know all about your chicken eating habits thanks to your last post…a little vindaloo sauce, a little bathroom floor debris…and voila. Julia could not have done it better. I'm a continent away, so feeling quite safe, but let me know should you decide to jump the pond or whatever the appropriate Brit saying is:-)

Hmmm, as a loyal reader, I wonder why I'm not getting any notification of these wonderful blog postings…I'm not asking for anything outrageous–like sky writing or a press conference involving Tiger Woods…just a simple poke or nudge when a new post appears…is it too much to ask Chicken? Is it? IS IT?

Anonymous: I said rewarded. I didn't say “prize” as in “Here's your brand new pink cadillac and a check for $1,000,000.00”. But I suppose, in the interest of fairness, I did IMPLY a prize. So how about this. In addition to my admiration and gratitude, I will write my next post on any subject you choose and you will be immortalized in the blogosphere. Pink Cadillacs guzzle way to much gas anyway and I am trying to look out for your carbon footprint.

CB: I Did, I Did alert, poke, etc. I facebooked, I tweeted, and I sent you a PERSONAL email. To the wrong email address, yes, but the thought was there. (Why do I have so many email addresses for you?). It has been corrected and SORRY Loyal Reader. You do deserve sky writing and press conferences for your efforts at following me. I know. Chicken does not make it easy.

Thanks GG-yes, it's very exciting. Who knows what's next? Maybe an extra page. Chicken has a lot to learn.
Sassy-thanks so much for visiting. I laughed out loud when I saw the Prince photo on your recent post. Wish I had seen that one first. It was disturbing and yet the essence of Prince.

Does Prince have a Twitter account because if he does I'm so going to annoy the shit out of him…
I like your blog by the way.

Dear Anonymous: I understand. I like that my blog has a bit of mysteriousness to it. It also gives me something to ponder occasionally.
Amanda: Thank you for visiting and the compliment, and oh yes, Prince so does have a twitter account…assuming it is him. His favorite post is “I LOVE U MORE” which I find hard to believe.
