Yes, 12 months ago today this baby gestated. Or was born or founds itself a tube to clung to amongst the many other intertubes…
Remember this? Not sure if much has changed. There are some posts I would rather forget about and some I am quite proud of, but my proudest achievement is sticking with it and having a post most weeks. In 12 months I have actually managed 145 posts and 3 pages, inluding this one, this one and this one!
Once upon a time, I had an anonymous blog. My friends had the address and I vented. And times were tough and people did need to be protected. And I did things that only your best friends and total strangers who didn’t have a clue who I was needed to know about. The strange thing is that in having a public blog where I am me, warts and all, has not meant that I have felt the need to hide things. Yes, I am selective about what I post about, but at no time have I felt the need to rant or vent or bitch or complain here.
I suspect it is because of the way I use Plurk and Twitter. There I am able to sprout off in 140 characters, get it out of my system and get on with things. It is more than microblogging. It is being involved in a supportive community.
So what am I going to do to celebrate? I suspect bake a cake! This one looks pretty good! Plus I have lots of carrots in the fridge so if anyone can suggest a different type of carrot cake I would be grateful! Thanks!
Oh and last, but, well, yeah, something about the least, or is that 733t? I am still amazed that people read my crap! And I also must thank the delightful Extremo who set up the blog and helps with technical stuff from time to time.
So it looks like I might be around for a bit more. So there.
