Carla, I have MS and "I Got Tremors" is my new theme song. I like your attitude. ... My first time to your blog—looking forward to it. I write blurbs like Mertitudes (Mert's Gratitudes) of the Day on Facebook. ("Still sort of walking!")
awesome show tonite - ur creativity flows thru ur music. thanx for helping me put a smile on my face tonite - i needed that!!!
Thank you for your coming out and speaking about the dsease and having such a great sense of humor. I've thought about writing a book just about lupus patients and their horrible experiences with doctors.....It was a pleasure looking at your site and I wish your continued remission and good health. I was diagnosed 1991 with Lupus/MCTD, I at this point I am just disgusted with how uninvolved doctors are and how they just can't seem to put our symptoms together (they just don't get that it's like a puzzle). From frustrated Nadia.
Thanks for the kind words you left on my blog site today! I just finished reading your journal and listening to some of your songs ... laughed all my eye makeup off! You sure have a gift! It's so important to keep a sense of humor when you're sick. I don't know if you're able to be optimistic most of the time, but you sure know how to share the love :) Kudos to you for being able to (1)deal with the curve balls life has thrown your way, (2)entertain folks with a great voice and crazy songs, and (3)manage to find love despite prednisone and illness. I put your site on my blog roll because you're an inspiration!
I just discovered your wonderful humor! Fabulous!
I am a storyteller and humorist (preacher) and love hearing different ways to observe the everyday! Thank you!
God Bless!
p.s. My wife's doctors have standing orders - if they are putting her on prednisone I get two weeks advance notice so I can leave town!
hi thought id drop by to say hello! love your song!
Hope your feeling well today!
Much love sarah xxx
I would just like to correct the comment that Carla must have been a difficult child. She was a delightful child. However, she was a completely impossible (albeit very funny) teenager, and she started teenagerdom at age 11 and continued until about 22.

hope your feeling better. i enjoyed seeing you on wvia and hope to see more of you in the future.all the best.
Was looking for some pred humor to share with fellow vasculitis patients at meeting this week....and whoops!...there you were! You say it all...waiting rooms, etc. I'm smiling. Thank you.
Hey, thanks for stopping by my new blog. I have barely scratched the surface of your site and I'm already totally enjoying it. Can't wait to do some listening.
Carla,
Thank you so much for stopping by my site and taking the time to leave such well written information for me. I really appreciate it.
BTW, I'm a mommy who sleeps a lot. :)
Thanks for stopping by my site, www.despitelupus.blogspot.com! I've added you to my link list on my blog - who knew there was such talent out there among us Lupites!
And thanks for sharing your comments - hope to hear from you again soon!
Hi Carla,
Looking over GIT and Cervoni sites and ran across your link. Look forward to catching a show in the future.

San Antonio needs you to visit! Any plans on performing here!
We have sold four CD's for you between my husband and I and his sister!!!
We like to dance to "Please Do Something Stupid". We heard it on the radio back in 1999 in FL and it made us laugh so much we kept driving in circles around the parking lot to hear the entire song. I guess parking wasn't an option for some reason...?

Hi Carla,
Thanks for the stopping by my site and giving me encouragement and advice. I really appreciate it. ((hugs))
Your song "Prednisone" was sooo funny!
I'm going to direct my lupie online friends to your site to have a listen. I hope you don't mind.
:-)
**off to listen to the other songs :) **
Having heard you live, in person, in the living, breathing, singing, rib-tickling, wise-cracking, off-putting, honest-to-goodness flesh, I find you to be somewhat like an antibiotic: one dose simply won't do! So, I took two. Come Quickly, Dr. Ulbrich, I Need Another Dose!!
As a participant at The Lakeside Music Room, I can say that the intimate and up-close environment fits you well and serves us the same. My 8 year old now hums and sings your songs with great gusto, the 15 year old was inspired to take up guitar (and is doing quite well, too!), and my darling bride continues to purport that I have a weird sense of humor manifested by my great appreciation of yours. Ah, what a wonderful life!!
Thanks, Carla!
This link came in to my website. Out of curiosity I clicked it. I'm so happy I did. This is encouraging, hilarious and refreshing. The guitar is wonderful, the singing is strong. I really like your voice. Thank you for your contribution to those struggling to heal w/ their head up.

I love your web site. This is the first web site I've ever loved (I'm actually a Internet hater to a large extent). So much fun. I love your music. Thank you for sharing. I hope to see you perform in person one day. :-)
peace,

I'm pretty sure that the last phlebotomist that drew blood from me was named Ishmael because it definitely felt like a harpoon, not a blood needle. Capt. Ahab is definitely missing a member of the crew of the Pequod.
He also kept saying while he was sticking me, "Moby Dick!"
What's that all about? ;)
I've always been a fan--longer than anyone else! (Well, except Dad...)
looking good, the page, and those blue eyes.
Hope you make it back to the south soon.
