I started a family website back in 2001, when Kaiden was born. It was through a free site, and I could update it weekly and journal things about our family, for our extended family and friends and for my kids to have later. When they started restricting photo sharing, I bought my own domain, also in 2001, and shared pictures and did my journaling in HTML. I loved my site, and loved journaling about my life and my kids. In 2004, when I actually switched from HTML journaling to actually “blogging,” I met Friglet and Smizzo, who have been two of my best internet buds since meeting them. I met Chatty, who I now know in real life and hung out with in DC, and can honestly say is a great person. I also very early on met Atomic Bombshell, TJ from Zhantic, Michele from Coffeesoup. Soon after came Kristine from File Girl, LC from Palm Tree Princess, Peggy at Mommy Mishaps and Monica over at Miss Prissy – I could go on and on, but you get the point. These girls have been with me through some of the hardest times during my life (of course so have my real friends Dena and Nadine – can’t leave them out). Anyways, they have kind of become my online posse!
Yesterday I had a really crappy day. Kaiden had to get bloodwork done to find out what is going on, and some of the results started coming back and I started freaking out and getting worried (Todd told me I need to stay off the internet, that the doctors did not need my help diagnosing the blood results – but that is what moms do). This is where my posse came in and this is the reason I continue to blog – because of the friends I have made. I got an IM from Smizzo that she Friglet and Monica wanted to chat – so we set up a “conference chat” and all made ourselves a chat cocktail. These three girls had me laughing my ass off! I know a lot of people type “LOL” but we seriously were LOL! We talked about a lot of shit for like three hours and I really needed the laughing (and probably the cocktails). We so needed webcams for the conversation - that would have made it even better. I am so glad to have these girls in my life and I am totally excited EVEN MORE to go to Vegas now. I hope that everyone that said they wanted to go to Vegas was serious… because we TOTALLY are. Feel free to recap a small portion of our conversation if you doubt we will be there (click below and excuse any typos)…
