I was intending to write something about the anti-christ today, but I need to fact check with my brother Kyle first. He’s an authority on the subject. So watch for that tomorrow probably.
Instead! I thought I would tell all of you that I have my “blogaversary” coming up. I don’t have the actual date that I started blogging. My first real, hosted domain featuring a blog was back in March or April of 2004, but I’ve been journaling online since sometime in the Spring of 2000. That makes me feel really old. I remember teaching myself basic HTML code when I was in 7th grade using services like gURLpages. Back in the day, my username everywhere, including on that first website I had in 1997, was ordinaryprincess. Isn’t that spectacularly adolescent of me? I thought so. Of course, back then I chose the name because I was convinced I would marry Prince William:

I’ll say about him what my Granny says about Elvis: We’ll never know what might have happened if we’d met.
Back to the topic at hand. I’m going to be celebrating my blogaversary on July 2nd, since that’s the oldest post I have here at Miss Wisabus. When this blog first started it was Smosey.com and was hosted by Cyberpixels. At first, CP was a phenomenal host. Quick to answer emails, very helpful, and not too expensive. And then something happened. I believe they sold the company to someone else. They stopped answering support calls, emails, everything. And to top it off they kept charging me even though I asked for their services to be terminated. Not long before they sold or whatever, they’d had a huge crash and lost most of my information. Approximately a year’s worth of blogging. Tragedy. So I salvaged what I could and skidattled over to DreamHost where I have been living on a fluffy white cloud of hosting bliss ever since (thanks to Brandon!). GodlyGals is also hosted there, along with KicktheAnthill.com (a new politics/culture/religion/Oklahoma blog started by a few friends).
So, what should I do to celebrate? The Redneck Diva had people ask her questions. I think that would be fun. Also, I think maybe I’ll do a little podcast for it as well. And just talk. Cause goodness knows one thing I’m good at is “just talking.” OH! And I think I’ll reveal a Top Secret Video of Miss Wisabus Singing in a Church Musical at Age 4. With fruit on my head. You do not want to miss that!
Folks! Submit your questions here in the comments, things you want to know about me, my life, love, and other mysteries (CCM fans…I kill, do I not?). You can also ask for me to photograph things and I’ll get them posted as well. Like I requested the Redneck Diva to do, I’m going to post a photo of the insides of things: my refrigerator, bathroom cabinet, closet, etc. This is gonna be fun!

Happy blogaversary!
How about a Top 10 of sorts? The 10 best years in history and why, or the 10 best Sonic drink flavors and why, or the 10 best things that have happened in the world since you started blogging…
Your granny is brilliant. Can’t wait to hear about the anti-Christ!

Oooh goody!
1. What will your wedding colors be? Will it be a formal wedding or more casual? Reception? Dance? Music?
2. Do you see yourself leaving Oklahoma ever? Or are you an Okie for life? And, however you answer, why?
3. (I got this one on my blogaversary) What kind of purse do you carry? Do you change often? Can we see inside? (Because the fridge and bathroom cabinets just aren’t enough!)
Happy Blogaversary!
the beginning of this made me chuckle.
