In all of the excitement about posting every day for a month, I forgot to mention that this blog was born 8 years ago yesterday.
i just finished getting all of the archives input into this Movable Type iteration of the blog (except for the handful I posted in Bloxsom about three years ago), which was sort of a pain in the ass, because more than the first 1000 entries were posted using Blogger (I think I was user 196 there).
Anyway, here's how it all started if you're curious:
It's been a good long ride. I've made some tremendous pals through this blog, and hooked up with a few long lost chums. I've sired two children, bought a house and moved through something like four regular gigs since I started this thing up.
A plus I forgot to mention a few days ago about what positives NaBloPoMo has brought me is that it spurred me to retrieve the archives.
Yes, it's been a good long ride - but I intend to keep on riding, damn you! I plan on rocking on the porch at the Old Punx Home, making posts from my laptop or wristwatch or whatever it is those damn kids come up with next
WOOOOOOOOT! Congratulations, J! Have a beer.
I cannot imagine a world without your blog. We shall mark it every year with a fine feast! Yay. :)
