A year ago today I started this blog.
It’s been a blast! I never thought I’d be a blogger; I didn’t think I had much to talk about. 348 posts and counting has taught me differently. I’ve connected with so many of you over the past year (and if you’re lurking, speak up! I’d love to get to know you!)
My favourite part of writing a blog is all the things I get to learn and see — since I’m always looking for material to post I get to trawl all kinds of websites I might not have come across otherwise. I get to learn about all kinds of weird shit. And some of you have found me in strange ways, too, like the following searches that brought you here:
“witch to do list”
“see i’m pretty”
“headgear 2012”
“different types of cursive”
“shower sexy”
“disgusting images of sugar”
“breaking up jokes”
“fun marriage” (awww)
and my all-time favourite: “how can i get my kids to leave there coats zipped up”. Because apparently someone out there desires parenting advice from the sweary horror lady.
I’ve covered health, politics, film, and DIY. Together we’ve learned about eyeball tattoos and lobotomies and horrible things that lurk in the sea.
And of course, along the way, I hope I’ve scared the crap out of you.
So this chilly December night I raise my glass (which may or may not contain more rum than eggnog) and toast to another year of fun, and weirdness, and fear. And I toast to you, because knowing you’re out there is what makes this so much fun. So thanks!
