What are your favorite things about Bad Hair Days (the website, silly. your hair looks fine)? How long have you been reading Beth's journal and/or weblog?

I've been reading about two months now, and I make visiting here top priority (I do it before checking my mail!). I love this site.

Not to sound obsessed or anything... Heh.

Go ahead, worship Beth!

I love Beth's site. I visit daily. Her writing is entertaining and hits home. She and I must be going through the same life experiences at the same time. And she shares a lot of the same opinions as I do. She makes me feel like I'm not alone.

Her garden project has inspired me to start my own. She makes it seem so easy. Although, I've still got a long way to go...

She attracts a wide variety of contributers, all interesting and nice people. Even though I don't know any of you personally, I look forward to sharing with you and seeing what is going on in your lives, too.

Beth, you do a wonderful job with this site. You deserve the worship!

Since Xeney's Guide to the Galaxy, Beth has continued to grow through various stages of ass-kicking-ness, and she always makes the time to share it with us no matter how busy her real life gets. You can tell that Beth is a bad-ass, and yet she still keeps it real. Rock on, Beth!

I don't know how long I've been reading, but I just like Beth's style of writing and humor. She can tell a story about nothing much and make it hilarious. And her forum is fun too.

She always has something interesting to say and a good forum. I only read 3 journals and most days this is the one that makes me laugh or smile or think "Hey, That's me".

I guess I've been reading this journal for a couple of months. I love Beth's style of writing, and she is hysterical. I especially love stories about Doc. The song Beth wrote when he was neutered had me laughing so hard that I was in tears, and made me glad to know that I'm not the only person that writes songs for my animals!

And, as often as she makes me laugh, Beth makes me think! She has great insight about things, and she's so good at expressing herself. I think the best thing of hers I've read was the story about when she found the kitten that had maggots in it. I bawled my eyes out when I read that one! I could *see* her - a scared kid, not knowing what to do, but trying to help the poor kitten anyway. That was a powerful piece of writing, and I make idiots that don't want to spay/neuter their pets go read it. It usually changes their minds.

I've been reading Bad Hair Days maybe about 6 months? Something like that. It was the fourth of fifth journal I found, and it's one that I check several times a day. I love the weblog, I've found more cool stuff there than any other single site on the web. And the journal entries are outstanding. My favorite was the saddest little house in midtown (or something like that), about her neighbor with the Alan Keyes sticker.

I like the new design, and it's never given me problems. But I liked the old design, too. I guess for me it's about the content, not how I get there.

Thanks for an awesome site, Beth!

More dog stories please. But not scary dog stories like today's. Thanks for the warning but I went ahead and red it anyway and was very sad. More happy dog stories where Doc gets to play and frolic and wear underpants on his head.

Awwww, what the hell, Beth's a great writer, she has an excellent way of describing things that make you see exactly what she wants you to see. She's funny and entertaining but not mindlessly so. She doesn't have to be the five millionth person to like to mulletsgalore.com to get a laugh. She has a personality.

More dogs.

I love this site. I've been reading it for about 6 months now; I don't read many journals, but I really enjoy this one.

I like the way Beth writes - she's smart and funny and opinionated and a great read all the way 'round.

The forums are great fun.

I'd really miss Bad Hair Days if it weren't around (God forbid!).

My roommate just told me about this site a few days ago. I am temporarily in a small and very isolated cubicle where I can surf the web to my heart's content without any stress over trying to look busy. It will be over in a couple of days so I am trying to make the most of it.

Anyway, I love that Beth created and maintains this site just for the heck of it. There seems to be a very cool group of folks involved with the message boards, there are topics that aren't stupid and posts that are usually thoughtful and often funny.

So there it is. I'm going to have trouble staying away from now on.

Beth kicks ass.

I'd write more, but it would all boil down to: Beth kicks ass.

You go, girl.

I've been reading this site about six months or so, and I love it. I admire the fact that Beth can work so diligently to provide great links as well as wonderful journal entries--and have a life and job too. I'm a journalist who's getting burned out covering the same beat for years, so I love checking in to see what Beth is up to and to take part in the forums. I keep a journal, but I wouldn't have the courage to share it with folks. More power to you, keep it up.

Xeney.com is set as my start page on my browser. I read it before I check my mail. That pretty much says it all...

I've been reading Beth in her many incarnations for at least three years. I just found a notify email from May 1997, during the time when she was concerned about being outed. I've always enjoyed her stuff, and not just because she's spoken favorably of me.

keep up the good work, beth!

I've been reading Beth (as Anita said, in her various incarnations) for nearly two years now.

I love her dog stories too, cause I've got my own beasts who seem to do the same things Doc does. My dog Ginger would have so much fun with Doc.

Actually, I love everything Beth writes. She has a way of giving the details without it feeling like I'm reading too many details. She has a way with words that very few other people do.

And I like the new design. Upgrade your browsers, people!

I've been reading Beth's journals for about a year and a half. I *do* read my email first, but this is my next stop! I read the journal, I check out the weblog sites, I read (and every now and then post to) the forums. I love hearing about her job, her boyfriend, her animals, her garden. I don't like hearing about Buffy, cause we don't get the WB where I live, and it makes me jealous. Okay, I'm jealous about the other stuff too, but especially B

The new design is certainly awful though, isn't it? Woo boy, talk about a step backward. Bring back the old one.

-- Anonymous, May 29, 2000

The new design is sophisticated, and clean & easy to navigate. I don't know what you're talking about, Dave.

The old design was whimsical, and fun. Which I root for. Always. Fun is good.

But I'm impressed with the new. It's beautifully done and it suits Beth's style.

trouble-maker.

Quit rabble-rousing, Dave. The new design is great. (Especially now that it's legible on Macs running Netscape, not that I'm using one anymore.)

-- Anonymous, May 29, 2000

Beth, I say again: the new design ROCKS. It's clear, it's concise and it's got class - true class. The latter also applies to the content, but that goes without saying.

I miss reading your entries while you take a break, but I certainly understand. We'll talk amongst ourselves till you return.
