Two Years of Blogging
This blog is two years old today. That means it was 730 days ago that I first put fingers to keyboard and started telling the people of the internet about my life in Holland. Two years of blogging. This now means my blog is at the age were it is constantly asking annoying questions like ‘why is the sky blue’ and following up with ‘but why?’ when they receive the answer. It also cries when it can’t have ice-cream or candy floss and I have to spend a lot of time rescuing it from trees it some how managed to climb up but can’t get down from. It also can’t be left alone with other blogs of the same age because they would only end up getting each other in trouble.
Here are some of the highlights from the past year:
I Do:
I said ‘yeah I do’ to a friend’s proposal of marriage and spent a few hours as a married man on Valentines Day.
Putting My Foot in It:
The language divide led to an embarrassing situation when I accidentally accused a random tourist of being a prostitute.
Jimmy the Spider & The Ebenezer Scrooge Timeline:
I explored creative writing with two short stories.
Strange Kittah Behaviour:
It seemed very likely that I would have to hold an intervention when I discovered that my cat was an alcoholic.
I Fought the Law:
I never thought jogging was illegal until I nearly got arrested for looking suspicious.
Stalking Sinterklaas:
Everything seemed to go wrong as I spent a Saturday afternoon trying to capture a photo of the illusive Sinterklaas.
Charlie?:
Ever wondered why so many people in Amsterdam are looking for Charlie? I discovered the answer.
Confusing and Baffling:
Imagine the must unexpected thing possible happening to you and then multiply it by ten. Then you might just come close to how surprised I was when I was approached in the street by a woman wearing a fake penis.
Let Them Eat Space Cake:
After eating space cake I discovered that it is possible to think that Twister is the best movie ever and forget where you are even though you are sitting on your own couch.
YES… and I’m the first to congratulate you! *Congrats and KISS* Now where’s the cake *hehe*
Happy 2nd Blogaversary, Stu! Keep on invading :)
You don’t look a day older than… wait, kind of a mouth is this?!
I don’t think I’ve posted on here before… oh oh first time! BUT what a perfect blog to post on… HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! Keep them coming :) I’m going to need the humour once I get there in April! :P hee hee
Congrats! *three kisses* (well duh, I’m Dutch!) don’t leave your blog alone, it will either swallow pins and/or needles or climb in bookcases. Maybe you need a sitter?
Happy Birthday/blogday Stu
hmm, so now you’re entering the terrible two’s? good luck! and a belated congrats on your ephemeral VD wedding, wish we did that here in the states!
and also… I just discovered who ‘charlie’ is, we don’t know him by that name here, but apparently he’s quite popular in London as well!
Happy B’day.
A belated happy birthday – and for god’s sake, don’t stop blogging!
Mwah xx
Happy Blogday! Don’t worry, I won’t give you a kiss.
Are you still looking for me?
Happy 2 years old!!!! :-)
Thanks everyone
A very late congrats- and i only just noticed the ‘yeah, i do’ reference. It made me smile.
