1 Year + 1 Day

A year ago (+ 1 day) I started this blog. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I thought it might help others avoid any mistakes I've made, but in reality it's probably helped me more than anyone else. One could argue that taking time to do this is keeping me from spending my limited time doing job stuff, but I would counter that not only is this mostly job stuff, but getting feedback from all of the readers and other bloggers has probably saved me a decent amount of time figuring things out in another way. At the very least, it's a wash on the time side of things and this blog has allowed me to develop a number of great relationships with people I otherwise would likely never meet. We're an odd little community, but one that I'm glad I've joined.

Thanks for coming and thanks for letting me give and take advice, vent, celebrate and laugh with all of you.

  2. Hmmm ... an odd little community of people or a little community of odd people? Methinks the latter.

  5. Yes, I might fail a Turing test, too. Happy Blogoversary, and thanks for your contribution to mine. I'm a wannabe PLS. It was close between you and CPP (just kidding).

  8. Thanks everyone. It's the interactions that keep me coming back, little people or not.

    And PUI Prof, you're going to need to work on your creative cursing if you aspire to the Big Leagues with CPP.
