This blog has been around since April 2002, making it just over 14 years old. Yep, it’s older than my daughter. I was feeling nostalgic for the old days when blogging software was very, very limited. In fact, my very first post was all about which blogging software I debated using, before ending up with Greymatter. Sidenote: all three blogging platforms I considered are now defunct.
Denis and I both blogged here in the early days – but he checked out from blogging many, many years ago and at that point it became my blog. At that point I removed the CootieCouple graphic that had been our “logo” for a year or two. In recent weeks I implemented a new theme on the site (I was ready for a change once I started blogging again thanks to my Facebook fast), but thought I’d bring back our CootieCouple as part of the background. I know it makes the background incredibly busy to the eye, but I like them.
When Denis and I were going through stuff in the garage during the garage sale this past weekend, he found a box that had several old scrapbooks of mine – from childhood, from college, and post-college. Yes, my scanner will be going crazy over the next few days to scan in some awesome pictures. So you’ve got that to look forward to…
