This whole friends on the internet business is interesting, isn’t it? I’ve been thinking about it an awful lot over the past few days and also drawing each one of your names with a pink glitter pen on my PeeChee folders. I love reading the sweet comments you guys wrote on both my posts last week and my guest posters’ posts last week (those girls are LIARS). I love checking my mail to find sweet care packages and waking up after long medicine induced naps to find text messages on my phone.
But, most of all, I love that I can be real with you and you don’t judge me, and you don’t take me to task for telling you exactly what’s going on in my head at the moment.
I remember one night, post CheeseburgHer Party at BlogHer (I think it was after THIS INCRIMINATING PHOTO was taken) thinking how nice it was that I was getting to be the “real Rhiannon” for once in my life. Not that I’m a different Rhiannon here, but I just felt much more true to myself.
I don’t know what I’m getting at here, but, thank you. Thank you for liking me just as I am.

Awh. You are so great. (In related news: I miss PeeChee folders, and did you know there is a place in Astoria called T.Paul’s Urban Grill that serves their menu on the old school 70′s PeeChees? You and the boy definitely need to hit that. Their quesadillas are famous, and amazing.)

Just like Billy Joel sang, “Don’t gooo changin’, to try and please me, you never let me down before…”
I’m not sure if that’s the appropriate song to quote but it was the first thing that came to mind.
You are seriously awesome. Feel better soon! :)

We totally love you!
I felt like that at BlogHer too. And it is so hard to explain to people, especially people who are all “you met people from the INTERNET? GASP!”
