Happy Blogiversary to me!

Yes, it was May 18, 2009 that I opened a new chapter in Confessions of a Science Librarian history.

One year on Scienceblogs -- it's been a fantastic experience, one that I'm looking forward to continuing for the foreseeable future.

Now, where's the cake?

The wait is over, and we have a green light on posting and commenting for the foreseeable future.
We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee. - Marian Wright Edelman (b. 1939)
Matt has put up the latest and greatest edition of The Boneyard, guiding visitors along a haunted fossil-picking tour of the best paleo-blogging from the past two weeks. Trust me, this one is not to be missed.

[W]here's the cake?

No food in the library!

Congratulations. Keep up the good work.

Thanks, everyone!

Still no cake, but I'm hoping for a beer or three this coming long weekend. Though not in the library, still no beer allowed here. Although I could tell you some stories...

Congratulations, John!

Now, 'fess up--how many years total have you been blogging? A little bit longer than a year I suspect. ;-)

Still, I am impressed with how you have kept it consistently going! Great work!

Cheers,
Connie

Thanks, Connie. Yes, it has been a bit longer than a year. I started blogging way back in October 2002, just a few days before my 40th birthday.

So, I'm coming up to eight years blogging, which seems pretty unbelievable. Nearly seven at my old Blogger site and now a bit more than one here at ScienceBlogs.

Blogging-wise, I was practically carving my posts into stone tablets back then.
