She talks a lot

So, apparently I have a lot to say. This month, I have managed to write 25 out of 31 days. Impressed? I have to say I’m just slightly impressed with myself. UH yeah... I mean, “I’m kind of a big deal.” (this is technically a quote ripped off from my sister Caitlin. You are SUCH a big deal Caiter!).

At any rate, this post is all about YOU. I have been so flattered and impressed with all my readers around the world and all the emails and messages I have gotten from all of you. I did not expect when I started writing this (which was mostly so I could avoid repeating the same stories ten times over) that I’d have such a great readership, from colleagues, friends and family of my own colleagues, friends and family!

And best of all, I have Brazilians reading here in Brazil and those that are living abroad away from home. And now, I’m even meeting new Brazilians through some of you who are reading from afar. I’m glad I can bring you some comedy through my experiences here. And to date, I haven’t managed to majorly offend any of you (at least not that I’ve heard!) and even my lamentations about lateness and excuses and pick up lines have seemed to be found comical and even, by some estimations, Fair!

For those that don’t read often and are playing catch up, the posts I received the highest volume of emails and messages about were:

- The other side of Sao Paulo
- Life is Only One
- Brazilian Pick up Lines
and of course
- More reasons to love Fridays

Now that I realize how much I have to say, I will happily keep on writing. Por favor, please keep sending your laughs, comments, comparisons, suggestions and ideas in either language.

OBRIGADA!
