One year ago today

Sweet cracker sandwich, "Eslocura's Asylum" is one year old today! Pretty fucking amazing if you ask me or any of the hundreds few people who read this blog. So what has the past blogging year been like you ask? Well let me tell ya ...

It all started out about me, and it's still all about me. I have shared all sorts of stuff, written about my heartache, my insomnia, stupid people, animals/pets, Puerto Rico, family, friends, fruit, and my childhood. I have done a whole bunch of memes. I have cursed a whole fucking bunch, and been proud of it. I have met my goal of not censoring myself as various friends and family became readers. (this I am even more proud of then the fucking swearing thing). I've touched upon many topics and I've written some filler stuff while my "muse" took a vacation. Blogging has been a fun adventure, a place to vent and be creative.

The best part of blogging: all of you. All the little huckleberries who take the time to read the "Asylum", who leave such encouraging, witty and smart comments. Thank you! Thanks for adding some sanity, thanks for adding more craziness, thanks for making me laugh. Thank you to my family and friends, who keep reading and coming back for more. Thank you to my fellow bloggers. Each one of you has in some way become part of the Asylum. I am very grateful. (now is a good time to lift your champagne glass) Here's to "EsLocura's Asylum", all hail the possibilities of the next twelve months!

So, just noticed your new header for the holidays. Do you, like my real life Puerto Rican friend, celebrate it all, inlcuding Wise Men's day (oops, is that the name?)

I remember when my blog turned one. It just loved the taste of the icing on the cake I made for it. You just wait until it starts walking and talking and throwing it's own poop! You'll marvel at how the time has flown by.

Congrats!

EsLocura said...

Jali, I've heard the stories about your singing skills ... am afraid but gracias very much.

Heather, damn I knew I should have bought the glass champagne flutes, these paper ones always leak.

Wng, hehehe I'm here for ya pal.

Nore,we started celebrating on thanksgiving and we don't stop until Jan 6, officially known as 3 kings day but I heard someone say they were wise, so you are still right.

Cyber, be still my little heart, am honored by your presence ( I think) will be shipping my blog to you when the poop starts flying.

heather said...

wng, i'm totaly stealing that line. awesome!

Kofi said...

Felicidades! I'm where Heather is... I just knew this blog was older...

Tipping back the champagne glass (amidst a few other glasses)... keep up the good work. Your giros and other assorted turns of phrase keep me going.

Tera said...
