Holy Yearly Recap, Batman!

I just realized that, as of last Thursday, I have been blogging for a year. And an interesting year it's been, too...

July 2005:
~ The Pobble Who Had No Toes made its first official appearance; things were coming to a head with my divorce and my biofamily. It got nastier but made me stronger and gave me relationships I could trust and depend on. And it got me blogging.

August 2005:
~ The Lovely Cats, the Divine M, and the Muppet all made their first appearances here; I clicked on "next blog" because I was bored and was given the blessings of the Mad Gay Housewife (who I still miss and still have linked ~ anybody know anything?), CrackerLilo, the Butler, Hirkaru and, of course, my beloved DonDon009; New Orleans imploded; I traveled to Chicago and the Basement; broke up with the ex; and was luckily enough to recognize a favorite lyric from a favorite show and meet a favorite person

September 2005:
~ Rita hit; I broke my foot; a friend decided the pain was too much and put a gun to his head; I "celebrated" my last wedding anniversary; and sold my books (TTG for that last one ~ September was kinda depressing, huh?)

October 2005:
~ I celebrated my birthday for the whole month; my blog friends rallied around my reality friend who was a victim of a hate crime; I loved living and being in Boston; and sadly made the decision to move to Worcester

November 2005:
~ Back to the Basement and face to face time with Jaded; the Woo move; and a visit with my Dear One

December 2005:
~ Tookie Williams was executed; my clothes started to get too big; I Want a Hippopotomus for Christmas got stuck in my head (aren't you glad I mentioned that one!); and the holidays were delightful

January 2006:
~ Lionel and Daisy came into my life and inadvertantly brought along SpiderGirl, Tai and Wolfgrrrl; my first book showed up on Amazon and I actually finished the damn thing

February 2006:
~ My Heart came for a visit; NYC got record snows; my mother started getting a clue; the SGM was an ass; and I outted myself as a slob and a lover of Brian Dennehy (and have now spent some time mulling over that particular post, I admit it)

March 2006:
~ Once more into the Basement, dear friends, this time with pictures as the Pobble makes her first appearance on her own blog; the Lovely Cats had a birthday; and I started an interesting round robin about the hierarchies and categories of sex

April 2006:
~ I went into an episode but managed to control it; moved dirt; started posting on the porn store; and met Yahoo Billy (ah...Yahoo Billy...)

May 2006:
~ you know, May was an interesting month... not sure I can sum that one up. which doesn't suck if you think about it. :) It did include a visit from my Dear One; the use of the word "cunt"; clean lung x-rays; a great debate on scary; the discovery of Aisha T, Zoom and Krystal; and finding friends in unexpected places

June 2006:
~ I held my book in my hands; I lost the One in VA; I spent over an hour on the phone with Dondon009; the tat, the streak, the t-shirt and the Pobble all showed up online; I made my deadline for the current book; and I started to heal...

And that's the way it was. I have "met" truly, truly amazing people (and if I didn't mention you specifically, please don't be offended! It simply means I don't remember the exact month you showed up in my life/blog!) Thanks for coming along and sticking around for the ride. Shall we do it again? :):):)

Those are Pobble Thoughts. That and a buck fifty will get you coffee.
