It was not so very long ago that I had to ask TheMIG what a blog was.
Because I didn’t know.
And now here I am, 1-year and some 150-or-so posts later.
~we shall now commence with the celebrating~
And in honor of International Talk Like A Pirate Day (thanks Inky for the heads up LOL):
‘Tis me blogiversary.
We be celebratin.
'Send me yer good wishes an' I'll put yer name in a hat, matey.
Thar be one prize an' one winner.
Here’s the deal:
Leave a comment. Please note that "a comment" is not plural. Don't make me regret this.
Your name will go into a hat. Or something hat-esque.
Drawing on Friday.
One lucky winner.
The prize? First, you will win something that is not for you. I will make a small monetary donation (in your name or anonymously) to support the thing that you keep telling yourself you know you should be contributing to...and then you don't (ie your favorite world cause, a pbs station, a podcast you love, your favorite local anything...you get the idea).
Once we get that taken care of, then I'll send you a little "something-something" for yourself. I can't say exactly what that is until I see who wins. People come to this blog for different reasons. If you are here for the gimpin' it might be an AmpuTeeHee shirt...if you're here for the knittin', maybe some yarn...or maybe I'll send a book you've been coveting...see what I mean?
Ok. Go.

since I missed the big day, I don't feel like I should bust out my pirate. but I somehow cannot resist entering your grand sweepstakes!
"I've never kissed a chipmunk, and I don't look good in leggings, and I've never been to Boston in the fall..."
Do you know what pirate sang those words?
Happy belated blogiversary!!!
Coming out of lurking to comment - I always like your blog! Hello! I had found you ages ago through Rabbitch, then I lost you again, and found you again through Stephanie. Happy Blogiversary, wench!
I came over from the harlot and have since read most of your archives too (it's been a bit slow at work). Just wanted to say happy blogiversary an I love your raw sense of humor and attitude on life.
Holy crap, am I behind in the blogreading. Happy Blogiversary! I'm very glad to have you on my Bloglines.
