Rude Cactus: Delurking Day!!

May 3, 2005

Delurking Day!!

Inspired by Sheryl's awesome idea a few months back, I hereby declare it to be Delurking Day once again!! Of course, this could somehow have something to do with the fact that I'm tied up in an all day meeting for which I have to get in the car and fight traffic, like, now, and can't really come up with anything brilliant on such short notice. Or it could be because I've been sucked off the face of the earth by alien forces in an effort to harness my brain power to solve the mysteries of humanity. Or someone could have blown my cover in the witness protection program and I've had to make a quick exit. Regardless, drop by and say hi. Share a story or two, make some new friends. It'll be like Woodstock only without the rain and mud...or Jimi Hendrix...or the acid. Oh, hell, just delurk! Posted by Chris at May 3, 2005 6:06 AM

OMG. That is a GREAT photo. :) Makes me smile. First of the day, in fact.

Posted by: Keri at May 3, 2005 7:46 AM

Yes, definitely a great photo. You have the "Is it safe to come out now?" look down pretty well. Get in trouble a lot? ;)

Posted by: Michelle at May 3, 2005 7:57 AM

you have entirely way too much fun with a camera. :D

bonjour! hola! hi!

I want another sonogram!

Posted by: verucaamish at May 3, 2005 8:44 AM

Hooray for delurking! Boo for fighting traffic. Yay for Jimi Hendrix!

Posted by: tonya at May 3, 2005 8:58 AM

Great pic! Not so much delurking as just saying Hi!! *waving frantically*

Posted by: Krush at May 3, 2005 9:16 AM

Poof, I have delurked. I am always around I just don't comment that often. I have a phone interview that might win me a trip to DC, wouldn't that be interesting. I am hoping that maybe if I win, I could somehow meet the Cactus or the Fish with the CactusFish. LOL

Love the self portrait!

Posted by: A.K. at May 3, 2005 9:45 AM

Comment slut!
Ah ~ I love you anyway! Giggle
Your photos! I am telling you AGAIN! You have to write a book!

Posted by: Gypsy at May 3, 2005 9:59 AM

hellooooo! Happy Tuesday!

Posted by: donna at May 3, 2005 10:05 AM

Hi, good morning! Cool photo.

Posted by: bad penguin at May 3, 2005 10:24 AM

I comment every day. Thus, today I will lurk.

Posted by: Jason at May 3, 2005 10:35 AM

Regular commenter....so this is really not all that unfamiliar to me.

Posted by: smartjuice at May 3, 2005 10:47 AM

I can't really delurk, huh?

Posted by: alektra at May 3, 2005 10:53 AM

Oh, alright, I'll delurk...

You know, that's a fun word to say aloud...course, I prefer my coworkers not to think I've went nuts either this early in the week!

Happy Tuesday!

Posted by: christina at May 3, 2005 11:29 AM

Delurking to say hi! Happy Delurking Day!

Posted by: Fraulein N at May 3, 2005 11:51 AM

Are you sure you aren't having a son? Because I could wait like 20 years and totally marry him. That is a devastatingly handsome photo. How and why does Beth even let you out of the house?

Bon mardi!

Gypsy made me laugh by the way! Comment slut! Me too!

Posted by: wouldn'tyouliketoknow at May 3, 2005 12:00 PM

not really delurking, have commented before (I think, I know I have over at Beth's)
so, um, Hi!
also love the pic, by the way...

Posted by: cristin at May 3, 2005 12:02 PM

I don't think I was really a lurker before, but hello anyway. :)

Posted by: Spring at May 3, 2005 12:17 PM

yo g.

s'up?

Posted by: amy at May 3, 2005 12:24 PM

* De- lurking* to say hello. I read every day.

Posted by: Wendy at May 3, 2005 1:01 PM

hooray for delurking! I don't really lurk here, other places, yes - why does lurking sound vaguely dirty!

I do invite others to delurk on my blog - come on over!

Posted by: samantha at May 3, 2005 1:15 PM

You know your wife posts pictures of her belly. Where's your belly?

Posted by: Kris at May 3, 2005 1:24 PM

It is official I am no longer a lurker!

Posted by: Mel at May 3, 2005 1:31 PM

Yo. Tis I.

Posted by: Heather at May 3, 2005 1:34 PM

consider me delurked

Posted by: kate at May 3, 2005 2:17 PM

Hi! Funny blog...I check in almost every day.

Posted by: sarah at May 3, 2005 2:19 PM

Howdy!

Posted by: Queen of Ass at May 3, 2005 3:38 PM

It seems like sitting in traffic is more pleasant in the spring--lots of pretty flowers and trees and stuff to look at. Or maybe I just think that traffic isn't so bad because I am sitting on my ass and don't have to get in it! :) Hope the meeting went well!

Posted by: Raybelle at May 3, 2005 3:49 PM

hello, i've only read your site a little bit, but since i'm 'delurking' on a couple of peoples sites gradually, i'll do this one too,
anyway...i like your site! and your photos are great too. i have a new blog with NO comments, so feel free to pity me, and appriciate all of your lovely commenters!

Posted by: monkey typist at May 3, 2005 4:06 PM

I am just here to say that I have comment envy.

Posted by: Ms.Q at May 3, 2005 4:28 PM

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyy Chris!

Hiya big guy. Miss me? Glad to read all is chugging along well with the Mrs and the bean.

I commented and de-lurked. I feel better now. Do you?

LURKER....COMMENTED

Posted by: wn at May 3, 2005 6:02 PM

I'm boring....

Posted by: annie at May 3, 2005 8:31 PM

Sometimes I scroll through your many comments just to see if I want to read anything written by a name I recognize. I saw Goodsnake's comment just now, about possibly coming for a visit...I hope she's planning on including ME in that visit as well. Hopefully she'd come up before I move far, far away... :)

Posted by: Zandria at May 3, 2005 8:32 PM

I'm not here.

Posted by: Lee at May 3, 2005 11:00 PM

Alright, you caught me. I have been lurking here since Muzikdude had you as the mystery blog. I like it here. I also lurk over at Beth's and the Beanette's. Thanks for calling me out.

Posted by: Gwen at May 3, 2005 11:24 PM

I return again...Happy lurking or delurking or whatever.

Posted by: cyn at May 4, 2005 12:21 AM

awesome picture. and your eyebrow is like the perfect eyebrow! wow.

Posted by: Catharina at May 4, 2005 7:48 AM

Your wife and I got pregnant around the same time and I anxiously await all stories about the baby and his parents.

Posted by: That Girl at May 4, 2005 8:36 AM

Sheesh, I'm late. That's what I get for not checking my refering traffic.

Posted by: Sheryl at May 4, 2005 8:46 AM

Delurked! I just discovered you recently...from your Comments on Sawni's Mindflare. Amazing photo of you...You have beautiful eye(s)...

Posted by: Randa at May 4, 2005 1:25 PM

hmmmm, I think you airbrushed your eyebrow.

Posted by: etherian at May 4, 2005 3:06 PM

i'm late, but i was on an airplane and in a car all day yesterday, so please forgive me.

Posted by: jen at May 4, 2005 10:16 PM

You have the most popular blog and it is STILL not enough! Giggle...just razzing you! I LOVE the pic...
