I think one of the things I love about the Pink Pigtail in, is that it is a Mage blog, but with much broader and insightful content. There are only rare days where you need to be a Mage to enjoy the content, although on those days you need to be an Arcane Mage ;-)

@ Larisa: Yep, your very own stalker… No I jest.
Your post the other day on what makes you love blogs inspired my tribute… and no you don’t need to be dead for a tribute post, but I guess I just saved myself some time if you ever do disappear off the blogsphere.

I guess that I just wanted to highlight, particularly for those that may have come across your blog late, that it is worth going through your blog history, as you didn’t just start writing quality posts yesterday.

It is the one problem with blogs.. lots of content, and from experience high quality content, but in a sequential manner. Usually when one starts to read a specific blog, one normally only has time to “read forward”, not take the time to review the back issues.

Ironically, the 2 people that have commented are the 2 that inspired me to be involved in blogging.

Matticus: Inspired me to read (and search out more) blogs.
Larisa: Inspired me to create my own.

And, I guess on top of that, Matticus is the inspiration for the Clayton’s posts. It was his post (noted above) that drew my attention to your blog, and if I can do a little bit of that on a weekly basis for others, then it is worth me reading those 400 odd posts that await me in my feedreader on a Monday morning.

And I feel a bit worried about – what if you really don’t like me that much any more, maybe you just feel obliged to keep it once you’ve put it there? You’ve put yourself into a trap, my friend.

But now you’re coming up with a tribute post…. What an idea! It isn’t anything I’ve even heard of before.
Are you just out of your mind? You wonderful lovely stupid little burning gnome on the opposite side of the planet…

What can I possibly say? I get tears in my eyes and it’s in
the middle of the night – or rather looong after, and I really should be going to bed – I will as soon as I’ve finished this comment – but how do you expect me to sleep after this?

I’m not dying (what I know of). I’m not planning to stop blogging. And it’s not my birthday. I can’t figure out what gave you this idea but all I can say is, with all my heart: thank you. Thank you.

(I just hope I won’t get hate letters for killing my mount. It seemed to upset some people….)

That’s… actually pretty catchy!

Although I’m not a mage, I do try to make some kind of an effort to catch up on them every now and again. The ones that keep me coming back, ironically, are the non-mage columns.

Larisa’s a she right? Or is a he? Hmm…
