I came to the blog this evening, contrite, apologetic and guilt-ridden. Being a lousy blog-mutha with an atrocious memory...I had committed the unthinkable crime...I had forgotten that most important of anniversaries...my darling little blog's second birthday.
What a bitch! How could I?
Well....it was quite easy to do, actually. I'm not coming to the blog much at the moment, I have lots going on.But that doesn't mean I don't still love you, blog. I do. I just need some space. That's bollocks actually. I'm just busy. I have a family, a large, shabby, falling-down house, a veg garden that needs digging and sowing, walls that need painting...sleep...I seem to need a lot of sleep at the moment...hope I'm not up the duff...and I'm writing, writing ,writing in between times. So, bloggykins, please forgive me, I'm so sorry I forgot your birthday. I'll make it up to you, I promise. I'll buy a box of chocolates for you - I'll eat them for you, then I'll write a loving description of how delicious they are.
I've just checked. I didn't overlook the birthday. My first post ever was on 28th April 2007. Ha!
Who's sorry now?

- I left London after sixteen years when the congestion charge was introduced. I now live a pleasantly uncongested life with Spouse and Sprog halfway up a mountain in the French Pyrenees. Yes, it's true, France is another country...but the country-side is another planet! The adjustments are ongoing, sometimes painful, often interesting. I recently completed my first novel (edgy, commercial fiction for women, if anyone's interested!)and have a second one under construction. I welcome the interest of literary agents,publishing houses and chocolate manufacturers. Email: mya.france@gmail.com © Missing You Already, 2007/2008/2009(written content)

Well Happy Birthday Blog! Two years old!
My blog is 16months old! But of course at an early age months count don't they? So yours is a toddler & mine is a crawler!
Happy Birthday - doesn't time fly!
Deborah
Happy Anniversary, you were right on time, saved by the bell. I have been struck by the same need to sleep. It must be springtime crawling in my blood that makes me so. Good luck with your vegetable garden. I suspect many tomatoes and aubergines?
Happy blogoversary!
We are blog twins! Except yours is the scary older sibling. Please don't shove my blog's head down the toilet.

Well, you were just lucky. I think she'll sense that the feelings just aren't there any more, even if you did hit the day. She's probably emailing and texting her girlfriends about how rotten you are, even as we speak.
I'm horribly disappointed. I'd expected 'hag or crone' to be a sort of questionnaire thing where you could decide which you were. I was going to see if I could fill it out and be both. In the meantime, happy birthday, blog and well done with your many endeavours.
yeah...life...too much to do makes for not much blogging time...all sounds nice though, the family, the veg garden, the run down farmhouse! keep coming back though...don't abandon us too long!
Thanks Maggie! Yes, we do feel all grown up.
Thanks Deborah - yes it does fly - too fast most of the time.Apart from when it drags, of course.
Gossamer Woman,
Yes, loads of tomatoes - but no aubergines, although they are so beautiful. They do grow well around here, but my boys can't stomach them, so I don't plant them.I'm so selfless!
Dumdad! Hiya mate! Thank you!
Jaywalker,
Ha ha! I promise I won't - as long as you don't get on my wick. If you do, I'm going to tell everyone you wee your pants.Or something similarly mean. Remember I have two older sisters - I am damaged. x
Iota,
Oooh, I hope not. I'm feeling guilty now. Thanks a lot.I promise to treat her better - when did my blog acquire a gender identity? Is my blog a girl or a boy? If she's an extension of me, I guess it's female. But, if it has a life of it's own, perhaps it's a boy.Hmmmm. There's one to ponder.
OM,
Hello! That is a good idea - maybe I'll do a multiple choice quiz. Thanks cleverclogs! Although I know already I am a hag. I think crone status is acquired past the age of sixty - and I'm not quite there yet.
Screamish,
Yes, it's nice. But very run down, me included. Sometimes I long for a regular salary, a functioning plumbing system and a Sunday Times. Then I look out the window.
Mya x
