The Terrible Twos

blog cupcake two

This is the proper way to celebrate my blog’s second birthday, which was Friday.

I think my blog and I may have hit the terrible twos, unfortunately.  An expression I think is a misnomer, as it happens, at least in my experience raising children. Both my kids were great during their second years. Three was where things got a bit difficult.

I’m having problems both with me and with WordPress at the moment.  Currently, I’m just waiting these problems out to see what comes next, because that’s all I can do.  But both will have a pronounced effect on the immediate future of this blog.

Oh well.  Whatever happens, at least I got to enjoy a cupcake.

And in these past two years, I’ve made (and even gotten to meet) some wonderful friends through blogging.

“We can spend our lives letting the world tell us who we are.  Sane or insane.  Saints or sex addicts.  Heroes or victims.  Letting history tell us how good or bad we are.  Letting our past decide our future.  Or we can decide for ourselves.  And maybe it’s our job to invent something better.”
~ Chuck Palahniuk, Choke

Today Is A Very Very Special Day

“Last night I got to thinking, what is a family, anyway?  They’re just people who make you feel less alone, and really loved.  And that’s what you’ve done for me.  Thank you for being my family.”  ~ Mary Richards (Mary Tyler Moore), from the finale of The Mary Tyler Moore Show 

I’m putting the kibosh on the moral thing today (and really any text, but we’ll ignore that), today is a day for me to celebrate (and to eat a very large cupcake).  In lieu of the moral, I’m going to link you back to my first post, which I filed one year ago on this day, The ‘Miracle Max’ Moment.  It may not be exactly like what I have grown into writing, but it’s me, through and through, and I like it quite a lot.

And as it happens, I counted wrong in my last post, this will also be my 200th post filed.  I didn’t even do that on purpose!  Happy Birthday to my blogging baby.  I’m proud of what you have done in a year. :D
