you know you got it, if it makes you feel good
my four year bloggiversary was on 7th jan! i totally missed it.
that’s a long time to keep up what started out as a one day project. this site has been through so many incarnations, i couldn’t begin to describe it as anything but an exercise in diy learning and self-exploration. this melange comprised of a little talk therapy, a lot of spleen venting, a tangled mess of css and html, and some random cat photos.
all that… and yet so much more. it’s strange how attached i’ve become to this little corner of the web which reflects some of the best and worst (but never all) of me. it’s strange how important this has become – as a means of communication, expression, creativity.
it’s a piece of me, in all its sloppy glory. like that warped clay ashtray you gave to your dad on father’s day when you were a kid, earnestly proffered with both hands.
here. i made you something.
