Comments on: Heather in The WSJ!! http://blurbomat.com/archives/2008/04/10/heather-in-the-wsj/ Tue, 07 Oct 2008 18:34:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Kelley http://blurbomat.com/archives/2008/04/10/heather-in-the-wsj/#comment-26105 Kelley Tue, 15 Apr 2008 02:21:10 +0000 http://blurbomat.com/archives/2008/04/10/heather-in-the-wsj/#comment-26105 I think that was a very great article as well. I've been reading dooce since the kitchen remodel at the old house... and I must say I've always wondered about what goes on behind the scenes, ie does Heather ever get writers block? Or does she write the bits of convo we read down as it happens, or is her memory THAT great? I think what you two have done is quite amazing. Cheers to you both, I hope to have the pleasure of reading for a loooong long time. :) I think that was a very great article as well.

I thought she was, like, the bionic woman of blogging or something. It makes me feel better. It’s kind of weird to think of Dooce with writer’s block.

I completely related to the "SQUEAKING. SQUEAKING. SQUEAKING." thing - my crazed young beagle and my friend's Wheaten Terrier pup enact this scene constantly. Usually at 60 mph speeds! p.s.

I cannot believe some of the comments you and Heather get, and my heart goes out to you - there are a lot of strange, angry people out there. Both of your sites give me a smile and/or something to think about every day, and everyone I've told about your sites love you too. I'm glad you go on despite some of the negative, badly written comments. I agree with the commenter above - please let us comment on The Daily Chuck!

I sometimes wish Heather would open comments on the daily Chuck, cuz the one she's got up today (Bo and Coco's tug of war with Bo looking every bit a war-weary military commander) is my desktop photo today. I feel compelled to let her know how how grateful I am for the cuteness and the 'tude she manages to nail every time. Have you guys considered retailing portraits of the animals in your community? I realize you have the calendar of Chuck, but small portraits (like the ones including Bo of late) would be awesome. Congrats on the success, which is well deserved.

Thanks for making what is obviously (per the WSJ story) a tough job seem so effortless. Your honesty and humor is awesome. Plus - Chuck. I mean, words don't do him justice. Quite often my poor officemate has to her me randomly squeal "CHUUUCK" when a particularly cute pic has been posted.
