Begin Year 6. Five years ago today I wrote a sorta dull entry, thus starting this here blog thing. Five years later I'm still (occasionally) writing dull posts and posting pictures and such.
Am I getting Blog Middle Age Syndrome? I checked on the Way Back Machine and see that of the 39 blogs I read in June 2004, only 18 are still around in some form or another. I guess I have stuck around because I live a truly fascinating life that must be documented in great detail. Or maybe because I have met many, many nice peoples, some of whom have become my bestest of friends (Hi Brian and Jimbo!). Or because this is a sorta diary that lets me record what I was doing on about 90 percent of the days since 31 July 2003.
Year 5 was an interesting year. The highlights were trips to NYC (hi Aaron! and Chris!) and DC (hi TJ and Brett!), Jimbo's annual visit, visits by Moby and Rob, hanging with my buds here in Tucson (Sandy, Patrick, Brady, and Forrest), and lots of fucking awsome lemon meringue pies and fattening cakes. Awesome! Did you know that AWESOME is my word for this year, replacing FABULOUS? Now you do! This is also the Year of The Exclamation Point!!!
The lowlights were dealing with the less-than-awesome fake-blogger mess (Homer threatens other bloggers with death! He's not a scientist! Someone hacked my site and put those pictures there!), Mama Cat going blind, and occasionally feeling less than inspired at work.
What will Year 6 bring? Stay tuned to find out.
