Happy birthday to me!
My blog's turning three!
Happy birthday, happy birthday!
Happy birthday to me!
Three years ago today, several forces serendipitously conspired to get me to pick up a keyboard, dub myself MPJ and write my very first ever blog post. Now, three years later, it seems appropriate to do some sort of retrospective -- you know, like those summary episodes of TV shows that air after a long break to refresh the memories of loyal viewers and to pull new ones in. But since I never watch those things anyway, I won't subject you all to anything like that.
Instead, I will say that I am deeply grateful for this space and all it has brought me: from the ability to flex my writing muscles and share this crazy journey I call my life, to all you out there reading -- some silently, some maliciously, some spamming, some supportive and (best of all) some very dear friends (both old and new).
Now (resisting the sore temptation to add a winky, smiley emoticon to the end of this) I'm going to blow out my virtual candles and wish my favorite 12 Step wish: knowledge of God's will for my blog and me and the power to carry that out.
