Happy Birthday, Bloggy
Bloggy turned three last Thursday. Unfortunately, I was too swamped with work for a deadline yesterday that I wasn't able to celebrate it appropriately. Three years of doing this and now Bloggy's all growns up. Yes, some things have changed. She's learned to walk and doesn't poo as much. Used to be she pumped out an entry every few days or so but now she's in the toddler phase and weaning herself off diapers. Now it's all about quality over quantity. And let's face it, Bloggy has other interests now too. She likes to watch the SpongeBob, for example. And she likes playdates with other blogs. So it's not always easy for her to focus on blogging, which is what she was born to do.
Still, three years going on four is nothing to sneeze at. For that, Bloggy, I raise a keyboard to you. Happy Third Birthday, and may your fourth year bring you much snark and wisdom and humor and all good things.
Your father,
T.
Happy Birthday Bloggy! You have grown a lot over the years and I am proud of how far you have come.Among your accomplishments; You have learned not to fly on Caca, and realized it is not a good idea to take a ride to Burlington on New Years eve with new tires AND a strange girl you hardly know. ANd much much more! :)
ReplyDeleteJust think - I can say I knew you when.
On Bloggy's behalf, thank you for the birthday greetings. Indeed, he has learned a great deal in a mere three years, as you pointed out so enthusiastically. Thanks for coming along for the ride...
ReplyDeleteGee Kelly isn't it?
ReplyDeleteAt the risk of giving you undeserved airplay...
Are you STILL goin on about somethin that happened like five years ago?!! Change the record !
I think you were right T in what you said, I think she was jealous. Sounds like she hasn't moved on from it either!
Gee Ros,
ReplyDeleteAt the risk of giving you undeserved airplay, it looks like your hypersensitivity and penchant for personal attacks have not abated in two years. Congratulations on the personal growth!
As for your schoolyard quip about K, there was no jealousy involved, since I was on the phone with her every five minutes about the miserable time I was having. In fact, you should be kissing her arse, not insulting her, since she was gracious enough to find a place for us to stay in a strange town in the middle of a blizzard. Seems to me that the only person who can't "change the record" is you, something you prove every time you take a minor comment and blow it out of proportion. Nothing K. said justified your over the top remarks, and nothing she said was intended the way you received it. But that's par for the course with you, isn't it?
A word of advice: if you want to throw a temper tantrum, do it on your own blog, where you have a receptive audience. You're not welcome to insult my friends here. On this blog, people can laugh at themselves without crying. In other words, it's for adults only.
I take your point.
ReplyDeleteIt would just have been nice to read the blog from time to time and enjoy the writing, like I did for a year before the trip, without it being dragged up again. Whilst I appreciate that someone was good enough to help with hotel reservations, they weren't in fact, on the trip. Any whilst you had people close to you to chat to every five minutes, I was on my own, alone, three thousand miles away from home being treated like shit. So forgive me for still tuning into the political writing, and forgive me for biting at yet another 'cheap' dig on your blog about Burlington. If you don't block me I'll not reply to the next two years quips about it. Promise.
