Anyone Out There? Delurk Yourself!
I know it's the very last day of "National Blog Delurking Week," or some such thing, but maybe, just maybe I could get any lurkers to delurk and say hi today. I'd seen this on Wednesday at Mausi, but today I was reminded me of it by cloudscome and decided to try it before it was too late. Oh well, perhaps it is too late...
Come on... I just want to know who is out there :) Pleeeeease?
I'm a Brazilian immigrant (used to say expatriate, have problems with this word now), living in the U.S. since 1996 with my husband and two sons (born in March 2002 and May 2004). I'm a mother, first and foremost, -- mamãe in my mother-tongue, hence the (e) of the blog title -- but after "ten years and two sons" I finally finished my Ph.D. in literature in 2008. After six years away from teaching (including a year home/cyber schooling my sons - 2009-10), I'm finally back in higher-education. I've been blogging here for eleven years, so welcome to my site and feel free to stay for a while and look around. Our lives are a roller coaster, never lacking in ups and downs! ;-)

I'm a lurker - I found you, in fact, via Mausi. Hi.
Okay, I'll do it -- hi! Love your blog.
I read, but never comment. Does that qualify me as a lurker even though I know you in real life? If so, I'm delurking ;)
I owe you an e-mail in response to your respose to my last comment (months ago)! Still reading!
My blog is at www.haobaobao.blogspot.com
I'm here!
