Perhaps I should mention that I’m turning 28 today!
I don’t think being 27 quite worked out as well for me as being 26 had. Writing a book and seeing it published is a big thrill. Watching the meager, meager sales figures come in isn’t quite as thrilling. Still, over the past twelve months I got a new job that I love, took advantage of the collapse of the housing market to buy a condo that I love, scored free trips to Switzerland and Finland, and watched a staggering quantity of House re-runs. There was also a pretty interesting campaign.
At any rate, at this point I’ve been blogging for nearly a third of my life and probably something like 115% of my adult life. I make a living blogging, I met a health proportion of my friends through blogging, and most of all I really like blogging and think it’s pretty awesome that I get paid to do it. And none of that would be possible without you, the readers. It’s the fact that people are reading, and linking, and writing comments, and sending emails that makes it so fulfilling. So—thanks!
