My 4th Blogiversary!

Happy Fourth Blogiversary to me!
Wow… four years I have been blogging, as of today.
It seems like yesterday when I posted That First Severely Erudite Blog!
Now, this posting today represents #1,785.
It’s been fun. Part of the joy of blogging is meeting great people, fellow (and sister) bloggers, whether online or in person.
For instance, I am on vacation here in Toronto, and it was so nice to be able to meet up with Patricia and Beth for lunch yesterday!
We had a real wild hoot of a time.
In part of our discussions, we talked about WHY we blog, and I noted that when it comes to the expression of one’s ideas or art, you can’t just walk up to someone in the Mall, tap them on the shoulder and say, “Hey, wanna read this poem I wrote last night?”
BUT [and here is the neat thing] this is basically what we are able to do in the blog-world. Express ourselves in a non-intrusive environment. It’s like a virtual world where you can be assured that fellow human beings are tuning it to you or their own accord.
At their own leisure.
Just like you are doing, right now.
And I know, dear reader…. you are right now wishing me a Happy Fourth!
Am I right?
