My thoughts on Blog Reader Appreciation Day are sharpening ever so slightly. Since it's coming up soon--this Wednesday, April 16th, and only two days away, I will just share my thoughts and hope that you will kindly fill in the blanks. I am thinking about
Madonna. You guessed it!
Do you remember a thank-you spot that Madonna did on MTV in the 90s? She listed some of her foibles and mistakes and shortcomings, saying, "You loved me when I wore ___. You loved me when I was fat. You even loved me...."
I tried to find this clip on YouTube but the sketchiness of my memory was prohibitive. If you can find it, please leave me the link.
So the idea for this post on Wednesday is to thank the readers for sticking with you even when you....
It would be fun to vlog it, but I may not be up for that myself!
Let me know how this sounds to you.

Update: Thanks, Elsa, for finding this! The part that I (mis)remembered is near the end of the clip.
Sounds like fun! Will they forgive me if I post a vlog? It might scare some people. :)
Anyway, it's a yes!

I've been asked to explain this more clearly. Here are a few ways to participate in Blog Reader Appreciation Day. (1) write a post thanking your readers for putting up with your foibles, mistakes, and eccentricities (a list) and being loyal to you (your blog) no matter what. (2) write a tribute to your loyal commenters (3) share some of your favorite comments (4) thank your readers in any way you want.
