Hey

I'm here. Stupid kidney infection. I've been out of it for a while and couldn't make myself understood enough to have anyone log in for me! Hope you all have been ok. Looks like current events have pretty much sucked lately -- there's got to be some good news somewhere!

Maru! You're back. That's all the fucking good news I needed, girlfriend. I was ready to commit suicide by eating my own shorts.

You all better now? Here's hoping. I'm off to cross all the kitties' toes for you. (They won't notice, the little fuckers are sleeping the sleep of the [not-so]innocent.)

The good news is that you're back and (I hope) feeling better. I always get worried when you're away for a while.

An alcoholic beverage will be consumed in your honor. Thanks for being you, Maru.

I'm so sorry to hear you've been sick, maru. Are you starting to feel like a person again? We've been really worried about you.

Oh, Maru, I'm so sorry you've been suffering. Kidneys, huh? Where's the genius accupuncturist in your neighborhood who can open up the blocked energy flow creating this condition.

I hope you experience full recovery very soon. I've missed connecting with your brilliant and hilarous mind. So glad you're back. But take it easy for a while. Maybe you've been digging into the Bushco slime for us all just a bit too deeply for too long and need to expose your mind to some great comedy and sweetness and light and cuteness for a while as a refreshing tonic. I has a martooni to that, your wellness and happiness.

Maru,

Add me to the pack of "glad your back". I mostly lurk rather than comment, but I need my dose of your blog!

I was pretty concerned, as well. Worried that you were either REALLY sick, or grieving. Missed you this week. Be well, dear; we need you!

Sorry to hear about your kitty and that kidney problem -- it's just not your week kiddo. Next you'll be telling us you're going on a hunting date with Dick Cheney. But it can only get better this week...

It was a worrying week without you to puncture the pompous and expose the hypocrites.

Kidney problems really are a good deal more of a pain in all senses of the word than most people know.

Glad to have you back.

Was begiining to think you had gone away for good. Unforgiveable! Sorry you were sick, take care and God Bless!!

Maru, glad to see you're back. Kidney infections definitely blow. I've had one or two in my lifetime, and aargh. Here's hoping you feel better and ready to rock with your fabulous insights and wit. Here's also hoping we here in Indiana can bring a win for Obama and end this thing.

Missed you! Hope you are feeling well. There's been a snark-deficit in my life!
Really, rest up; take good care. You're important...

I am so glad you're back. I am experiencing withdrawal. The only good way to report news during this administration is your way. Hope you feel better. Sorry about your cat. Relax for a while if you need to. We'll wait.

Welcome back Maru!

We missed you.

There! If ever you thought people didn't care about you and you didn't have a dedicated core cadre of faithful readers who value you &mdash I guess you know better now!

So glad you're back, rest up, I'll root through your archives for my daily dose till you're ready to enthrall and enlighten regularly once more.

Thank you, everyone!! It's good to be back with you all!

Welcome back! I can't wait to spew all over the monitor again.....lay it on me Maru!

Anonymous said...

Yeah, what Willis says.

SPLORRT! O krap! My brains just exploded all over my Mac from laughing too hard! You did it AGAIN!!! Thanks, Maru.

Some of my brain particles are draped from the monitor howling with laughter, some fell on the keyboard rolling all over my desk laughing their bloody asses off.

I'll just sweep this mess up and pack it back in there, wrap a scarf around, knowing from experience from having it happen here many times before, that there will be giggles erupting from my brain particles for a while. And people will stare.

It's such a feat of genius that in this era of utter horror I can come to WTF and find the impossible healing and marvelous Maru wit!!

Thanks for giving us so damn much pure delight. So what's the Emmy for most brilliant political parody? Case closed, no one does it better than Maru. Maru RAWKs!

Sorry to hear you've been sick. Looks like you are healing up pretty good with all these great posts. Thanks for all the laughs this morning, maru. A great way to start my day!
