The date of my first blog post at Pitas was January 22, 2001. I've been posting there for eleven years and five months. I have 133 archives, mostly by month. That little blog follows me through three years of college, many all-nighters involving friends and concrete canoes, two Star Wars prequels, three relationships, my wedding, my first engineering job, two presidential elections, a series of remodeling projects, the death of my grandmother, my discovery of photography as a hobby, the birth of my son, two miscarriages, passing the PE exam, the birth of my daughter, and now life as a part-time working mom with two kids. That's a lot of baggage.
Pitas is really a terrible platform. I've stayed there out of nostalgia, but Haloscan is shutting down in October and I like being able to get comments. I'm not that good with HTML or CSS or whatever it is you kids are using these days, so it's time to hang it up and join a real blog community.
Maybe one day I'll manage to bring in my archives. Or at least the ones that aren't so terribly embarassing. You guys, I was 19 when I started that thing. I was an idiot.
