2007 is calling

I was fed an ad the other day that asked, in a judging ‘you don’t want to become your parents’ tone, if I was still on the internet as if it was 2007. And I thought, gee, I miss 2007 internet. 

And then I thought, you know what was great about 2007 internet? Blogs. Your very own poorly-designed little corner of the internet where you could do your thing and be mostly unnoticed. As it turns out, not only does Blogger still exist, my old blogs still exist! 

I had thought it’d be fun to reuse my old blog address if I still “owned” it, but I never considered that it would still be live and operating like a weird time capsule. I was going to delete it, but then Russ brought up Ken Burns and I figured, if it’s sat around collecting dust for the last 14 years already, what’s a few more? It’ll continue to live on in obscurity and I will instead start from scratch-scratch. 

So, here we are. I’m going to assume that nobody is reading this, and I’m going to write accordingly. Without the pressure that exists when crafting an IG caption and you know someone somewhere is going to say something asinine, so you just shield yourself from the get-go. If you do happen to be reading this, please refrain from telling me, and then we can all enjoy some 2007-era internet together.
