Cheers!
I've been reading your blog for years. You've given me lots of laugh-out-loud moments at work. :)

*sigh* I remember you from Los Angeles, pre all of it. Wow Eleven Years! You just just keep on writing and I will keep on reading! Happy Anniversary!

Congratulations Heather! You have so much to be proud of.

Hurray, congratulations on the anniversary, Heather! I'd say I joined in reading about 7 years ago, and I've enjoyed every minute. Thanks for sharing with us, keep being awesome.

Thank you for your hard work, dedication and sacrifice for the past 11 years. I've been with you from the beginning and I'll stay until you kick us all out of your house.

Also, to you and your beautiful family - best wishes for all of you through this new chapter of your lives.

You are wonderful and amazing and deserve all the success in the world. Congratulations and thank you for sharing your life with us all. :)

Congratulations on eleven years!

I love you. In a non-creepy way.

Also, if I come over for a drink, I really like Tanqueray and tonic with a lime wedge. FYI.

Yay! Eleven years!!!!!!!!!!! That's a lot of exclamation points but I think you deserve it. Happy Dooceiversary!

Thanks for having me and bringing so much joy, laughter and heartfelt honesty into my life.

Congrats on 11 years! I have been here for at least 8 of those years and feel like I've been to dinner at your house on a Friday night, had to much wine and stayed in the lovely guest room, sponsored by Ikea on more than one occasion. Keep doing what you do. You even inspired me to start my own blog. http://poopinginpeace.blogspot.com/ Something I LOVE and have been doing for almost three years myself. So after we hang out at your place on Friday night, feel free to come over and listen to my stories on Saturday afternoon with a beer and a hot dog. Because I've been reading this blog for 8 years and know how much you love a good hot dog. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!

No, thank you. You have sort of saved me several times with your writing. And pass the bread and butter, you paleo nut you!

Pour me a 'double' and let's watch the sunrise ...on another 11years.

I think I started reading this blog after Leta was born... I came here from CNN website, they were talking about you being fired, mental institution, wickedly fun writing and I thought, "Well, let’s check it out...”
Years later, yours is the only blog I follow. If you ask me why, I have no idea. Plenty of funny people out there.

But I think it may have something to do with the fact that you always say exactly what I think, but couldn't find the words.

When Marlo was born, a little bit after my second daughter (they can be twins, if not in looks then in personality...), you said something (paraphrasing now...) " Leta thought me what it means to be a parent, and Marlo thought me what it means to be a mother". Never, ever has anybody said something that so reflected my feelings so truly. Ever. And I always quote that whenever somebody asks me why I read your blog.

So, here's to you, Heather B. Amstrong (nee Hamilton). May you be happy and healthy, always have your family and friends close by, and a warm home to come back to.

Cheers!

Wow congrats on 11 years! I started reading your blog about 5 years ago. I love it so much. I just randomly clicked through some old archives that I've never read and happened to find some puppy pictures of Chuck from September of 2002. Adorable. Please don't stop writing!

Thanks for having me. I stumbled upon you when I was looking for a wedding photographer and yours and Jon's image came up-obviously pre-chrome, I mean how does that happen? Been with you ever since. Feels kind of like I was a hitch hiker you picked up on a honeymoon road trip. I'll be glad to finally sleep in your guestroom. Marlo is a bitch to sleep with!
