HOLY CRAP DO YOU KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS?



Today is the day of the tenth anniversary of my LiveJournal!

That is some awesome stuff!!!! I totally had no idea, but then [livejournal.com profile] pinkfinity said something on Twitter about how ten years ago, she was about to start an LJ, and I was like, well, shoot! This would have been my tenth anniversary, and I guess I missed it! Because I knew it was sometime in December, 2001.

BUT I DIDN'T MISS IT. IT WAS TODAAAAY. SERENDIPITOUS.

I had tried to start a blog previous to being on LJ, but I didn't actually know that blog software existed and I was just updating an HTML file by hand. BECAUSE I FAIL. Then [livejournal.com profile] atomicfiction got a LiveJournal, and I sort of copied him, as all good people are wont to do.

*PUTS ON NOSTALGIAPANTS*

Ahaha, before LJ I was updating a HTML file by hand too! On Geocities!

I HAD MY OWN DOMAIN, BOOYAH. My parents got me my own domain in the late 90s. I'm still so pissed that I didn't pick something like "black.com" and paid for a Manhattan brownstone with the profits of selling it.

That is awesome! I had a journal before this one so I don't quite remember when I joined. >_>

Aw! I had one that I used to do reviews of things, but I only got that a couple weeks before this.

Happy Anniversary!

And I have a hypothetical question for you. If one was having a birthday get-together-with-friends-for-drinks-near-times-square of a Saturday evening at about 6ish (pre-theater) where should one go? And are you available to come hang out at about 6ish on Jan 14?

[identity profile] teaberryblue.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Aw man! I will be in DC on the 14th! THE FATES KEEP DOING THIS.

I think it depends what sort of drinks, price range, do you want food, that kind of stuff? If you are looking for something nice, I might recommend Toloache, which is a Mexican place that makes really nice margarita type drinks and has good small plates if people want appetizers. If you're looking for a classic bar-bar, Rum House is super classy old fashioned style bar but can be a bit tough if you have a large group. If you just want beer there are a couple Heartland Breweries right in the area that are perfectly decent for that kind of thing, and my go-to work pub is McGee's, although that is getting slightly uptown of theater district.

Awww, man! Fwiw I do get in on the 13th - when do you leave for dc?
I do love Toloache and may be doing dinner there - and will definitely look into the other options. Does the Paramount still have a good bar?

[identity profile] teaberryblue.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
NOOO I am leaving the 12th! I am going to a gin and whiskey distillery to learn about distilling spirits!!

I have never been to the Paramount, so could not say.

10 years. Holy cow! Happy Anniversary to you!

Thanks! Wacky, right?!

Happy LJversary!

I HAD AN HTML FILE TOOOOO I HOSTED IT WITH FORTUNE CITY
...and I'm terrified to realise it still exists. I just googled it. Wow.

Noooooooo the past is haunting usssssss!!!!!!

[identity profile] latedaybeckons.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
IT IS, IT IS HAUNTING US. AND IT IS FULL OF ALL-LOWERCASE TYPING. It's like shift keys didn't exist between 2000 and like 2004-ish.

GOD I KNOW RIGHT. BACK WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, WE DIDN'T HAVE CAPSLOCK.

Happy LJ Anniversary! I think mine will be coming up soon. Ah, the days where you needed a code from someone to open an LJ! *needs to double check this*

[identity profile] teaberryblue.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
YES I NEEDED A CODE. I remember waiting patiently for someone to have one I could use.
