Happy Blogiversary to me! Or, erm, not quite ... it was actually the 24th of April last year when I started this blog. However, this year I celebrated the 24th by sacking out as soon as I came home from work and not waking up until the 25th. And then yesterday, well yesterday the (stupid) internet was down all (freaking) afternoon. Sooo... Happy Blogiversary to me! Yes, it was one year ago (give or take) that I started this blog. I tell you I never thought it would last more than a month. I have never had a good track record keeping any type of diary or journal. Even in third grade when everyone was scribbling all their little secrets down on the playground and squealing when someone tried to peek (What? Then don't write in it in plain sight!) I couldn't get in the habit of writing regularly. I blame it on the hand cramps. I also blame it on the fact that those diaries and journals? No one read them. Like, I spend all this time writing in them and no one else gets to read them? Psh, as if. I'm gonna go over here and sing or act. Attention! Attention! I need attention! I'm kind of an exhibitionist at heart (I suspect most bloggers are) and I want people to read what I write. I put time and effort in, I want comments. At the very least I want to be able to play around with the font. At least with a blog I can have the illiusion that there are people who read this damn thing. Ah, my loyal five, how I appreciate you. So wow, a year. I'm ... different than I was a year ago. I mean, I'm still at the age where I can say that with conviction pretty much every year, but this year it is a pretty marked difference. I'm much more stable, much less with the boo-hoo over situations I can't change, also much less with the going to class unfortunately, but much more with the actually having a real job, so I guess that washes out. Also, my writing is a lot better. I was looking at some of those old entries and, yeesh, run-ons much? Okay, looking back at that last paragraph I'll say not better, but more clear, anyway. One thing I still haven't learned how to do gracefully is end an entry. Just like in papers, the conclusion gets me everytime. I either end up just stoping abruptly, or trying to tie everything together very clumsily. Yeah, can we guess what the problem is here? Can't ... end ... entry... Must ... take ... (crappy) ... shower... So um, Happy blogiversary to me and peace, love, and blogs for everyone! Riiiight. 10:08 a.m. April 26, 2004
