Nearly Two Years Later...

So it's a bit silly to be posting this particular blog entry right now, but I was sitting here wondering just how long it's been since I first got a blog here. Turns out it's been nearly two years! My first entry was on November 17th 2005! Since then I've posted 117 entries (counting this one), which comes out to about one per week, but which of course in practice is more like 2 or 3 one week, then 2 or 3 the next month (if that many in some months).

 

It seems that I posted the most entries per month - 15 - in December 2005, and the least entries per month - 1 - in January 2007. In fact it seems quite apparent that I primarily blogged in the first year; I made 86 blog entries from November 17th 2005 to mid November 2006, and only 31 since last November!

 

jamessavik was the first to ever comment in my blog! Tob was the third!

 

Beside the fairly mundane topics and general narratives of my life I've also written 7 purely humourous entries (at least that my intent with them :boy: ) which include, in chronological order:

 

Laughing at Life

Funny Moments From the Last Year

I Had to have Another Hit

A "Wordy" Entry

Water in my glass; air in my pipes

Animal Testing and the Joy of Gay Sex

A lifetime supply of...

 

I've also posted a "writing exercise":

 

Beautiful Boys

 

The shortest entry I ever made (about two and a half lines) was:

Everyone

 

Looking back on what I've written it seems that the majority of my favourite entries also took place in that first year. Though I definitely still enjoy writing in this thing :)

 

If I had to do an "outline" of my blog I'd say:

-The first section is about coming out and learning how to be a gay person.

-The second section chronicles my gradual decision to move away from the state in which I grew up and begin life on my own elsewhere.

-The third section seems to consist mostly of a great deal of pure introspection mixed with particular events from my daily life.

-The fourth section is about making my new life in Houston.

-The 5th corresponds with a period of time when I spent (comparatively) very little time here at GA, and truth be told considered not coming back at all(not due to anything going on here, but instead due to matters in my personal life).

-The 6th and final section is after I decided to "come back", and it deals with life as it is today for me :)

 

It's interesting to note that despite frequently starting polls (or pools :boy: ) elsewhere on the site, I've never had one in my blog!

 

I can only recall deleting one blog entry, and while I remember that it was a pretty negative one, I don't really remember what it was about.

 

I want to thank everyone who's ever commented, and especially the people who've frequently commented, for putting up with my whining and silliness, and still offering me very excellent insight, opinions, and advice. You guys have helped me more than you could ever know! :hug:

 

Anyway just a little "metablognition" ;)

Take care all and have an awesome day!

Kevin
