Five Years Already?

I know that I have a pile of questions waiting patiently for me, (not like they have much of an option) but I made the mistake of saying that I would answer them in the order received. The first one is difficult for me, and the second one...For the life of me, I can't think of any famous people I'd want to be friends with. Dammit!
It doesn't help that I was not sick for all of three days out of the last three weeks, and now it's back again. It was an awesome three days! Meh.

Anyways...

On March 8th, 2010, I sat down and wrote my first ever blog post. That seems so very long ago...In the grand scheme of things, five years goes by in the blink of an eye...

I always feel like I should have some great commemoration post that is all insightful and shit. Yea...Never happens. I'm pretty sure I had the plague this time last year too.

My life has changed drastically over the course of the last year, and while I would like to say that the blog has remained the same, the changes are reflected here in long spans of quiet often broken only by considerable angst.
Despite my overall quietness in Blogland lately, and the overwhelming life changes reflected here, it does seem like the one constant in a continually changing world. And I am grateful for that. For this place. For the people who stick with me despite the overwhelming amounts of drivel that I have been known to spew on a semi-regular basis.

  4. Not going anywhere, i spill enough drivel of my own at times, in fact im getting paranoid that all i do is blog about the negative stuff sometimes, it just seems that way at the moment!

    Chin up, and rant, moan, wonder, question and vent as much as you need to lol

    but seriously, hope things settle down for you soon lil, in every way.

    1. tori,
      well, the negative stuff has to go somewhere! In my experience, there is a limit to how much of it one can spew at their master in any given time period...

      Thank you!

  6. I appreciate your struggle with the questions! Answer them in whatever order you see fit.

    Would it be weird to say I find comfort in your drivel?

    1. Thanks Misty!
      Lol, no. It wouldn't e weird. Some people take comfort in the fact that no matter how much time goes by, some things always stay the same--the electronics in public service offices always malfunction when in my presence, and I always have coffee in hand.
      It could be worse. What's a little drivel between friends?
