Gone Surfin’

by Violet Blue on November 22, 2005


Literally. If you email me, I won’t even read it until December 1. If you call me, I won’t get the message until December 1. I *might* post pictures here.

But here are some awesome emails I’ve received this week, a kiss before leaving:

Neo Pornographia Vol. 2
also….much more vapidity where that came from:
Holiday Gift Guide DVD Reviews

“I just listened to your podcast (through Itunes) and I wanted to thank you for all of the helpful information. Half way through I called my wife in tears to tell her about the show, and we’re going to listen to it together soon. You answered a lot of questions and helped clarify some of the things we’re going through regarding my sexuality. What a great resource! Thanks so much!”

“Dear Violet,
I’m not quite sure how to even start this but I have wanted to email you for quite some time. One day I stumbled upon the porn stash of my husband and I completely Freaked out. That night was horrible. … What really turned my feelings around was when we both started listening to Podcasts and when he started to share websites he thought I’d like. … At first he listened to you and a few others… but he didn’t tell me about them until we had a Huge conversation. Since then we’re listening all the time and it’s bringing us closer because we have this new topic to discuss. Now, I’m exploring – in books, on the web, through Podcasts…


I’m sorry for rambling. I’m sure you get a million emails like this but, I am really appreciative of your work, your openness and your advice. I think you may have saved my marriage from serious troubl! e.
So, Thank You!!!!!!!!!!
Please keep up your great work and we’ll be listening.”

“..you’re my friend no matter how busy you get and how often you have to duck out of the world to tend to all the awesome things you do. Unlike flakey friends I have who make-n-break plans like it was their job, you actually do stuff that matters. You’re rad, smart and inspiring. I know how much it gets you down when people in your life don’t understand how busy you get. But know this: their jealous. You’re busy doing what you’re passionate about while they work 9 to 5 and want you to come over for pizza and warm beer.

Okay, so I am being a bit hyperbolic. But I saw your latest blog entry and I just always wanna give you encouragement. I may not get to see you as often as I’d like. I am currently downloading some of your podcasts so I can check out the audio/visual action. Yay Violet!”
