State of the Blog Address
Hello, blog-reading citizens of the nation of ASL!

We recently celebrated the anniversary of the United States of America, and I too celebrated an anniversary of my own. Namely, I have now been writing for this here ol’ blog for a year now. I can barely believe it, although quite frankly, it feels like so much has happened since I’ve started, that I thought it had been much longer than that.

To mark the occasion, I’d like to be sappy for a moment and take this opportunity to let all of you guys who read and post happy comments and send appreciative emails that every single one of them has made me smile. I’m not a filthy rich, celebrity-f*cking, newshound doing this because I’m driven by a desire to be photographed with the famous for being famous and free stuff–well, a tiny part of me is, except for the filthy rich part–but at the end of the day, I’m really just a hired gun who wakes up every morning and writes the stories she’s assigned and tries to interject some humor into each post, even though I feel sometimes like I’ve run out of Paris Hilton jokes and that everyone can tell. So, I guess what I’m trying to say in a very round about way is that churning out good stuff every day is pretty much near impossible, so I’m thankful for the patience and appreciation of those of you who happen to think that I’ve landed a good punchline here and there. You guys rock.
