>It’s My Blogiversary!

Who’da thunk it?
Two years ago today I started ISBL…….and I haven’t shut up since!
It’s been a blast and I want to thank all of you who stop by here every day, to leave a comment. I would also thank you for all your blogs–especially La Grande Duchess of Dust Bunnies, Her Royal Highness David Dust, who, after visiting his delicious site, inspired me to give this bloggery thing a try–because I find such great stories, pictures, jokes, inspiration, conversations, factoids, and trivia in all your blogiverses.
And so, in honor of this :::cough cough:::: momentous occasion, here is a repeat of that very first thought-provoking, hysterically funny, pensive, erudite, cogent, concise post…..such as it was:

I’m new to this blog thing, but I do love to talk and I do have an opinion–hell I have thousands of opinions–so I guess that’s as good a place to start. Let’s talk about………Me!

I am a happily-partnered gay male, and I have been with the love of my life for the last eight years. We met online in an AOL chatroom–no, not THAT kind of chatroom–and became IM friends, and then email friends, and then phone friends and then friends across the country and then I went from California to Miami to meet him, and that was that. A few months later I’d left California and settled in Miami–talk about culture shock!

We stayed in Miami for about six years until Carlos–the aforementioned partner–accepted a job in Smallville, South Carolina, and we loaded up the truck and moved to….well, not Beverly Hills, but Smallville. A small town. A cute town. A town full of nice people who didn’t seem at all peeved that the newest arrivals were a couple of mo’s from Miami. That’s a start, I think. More to come…..I hope.
