1 Year Older & Wiser Too

Double word score to whoever knows what song that's from.

So contrary to whatever it says down on that timestamp up there, it's April 8th in my part of the world and I just realized upon perusing the archives, today marks 1 year of blog delightfulness here. I never thought I'd make it since I've asked myself daily since then why I felt the need to contribute to the blog noise that abounds on the internet today... but needless to say, it's a big moment. In a word, this is dope.

Since I don't have much to say (that hasn't already been said) to recap a year in the life, I've come to the conclusion that my life in in the past 365 days can be summarized by these simple words of wisdom: Always moving. Sometimes backwards.

Also, I'd like to thank any and all y'all that may be still reading this. You make this life worth documenting. Comment and let a kid know you exist if there is, in fact, anybody out there. It doesn't matter if I know you. I won't even be mad.
Also, shout out to my mom. I know you're reading this Helen and I know you still don't know how to comment. Hold tight, I'll teach you that, along with adding pictures on Facebook, next time I come home. Mad love from across the Atlantic.

Finally, if anyone is looking to send some congratulatory gifts my way, please consider this fine piece of art. It's only $20, and after all, what's not to love...
This Marc Johns cat knows what's up.

"You've had a birthday" words and music by Barbara McConchie. :)

I don't always get to read it but I always enjoy it when I do. You are a great writer.

"You've had a birthday, shout hooray, We'd like to sing to you today, One year older and wiser too. . .Happy Birthday, to you". Or something like that.

Something is definitely headed your way, and should get there soon. It's not as cool as that fabulous piece of art, but it's not too shabby either. Miss you!!

people beat me to it.
obviously a primary song.
i agree wtih heather that you are a great little writer. quite jealous actually. somehow the words you use and the way you phrase it just flows and actually is quite halarious. probably because i picture your voice in my head and the inflecitons you would use.
I didn't know you had a blog until recently and I'm glad I found this little treasure. And i'm glad you update it a bit so I have something interesting to read. LOVE IT

I read your blog, and I love it! You are so witty and keep me laughing. I also love how you call your own mother Helen. Oh Mama Meek, how I miss her!
