First Blogaversary!



Yes, it was a year ago on the 30th April that I first sent my Journal to my Intern in the 21st Century.

In that time, I've encountered parallel universes, time travel, a Borg version of Deanna Troi, numerous unpleasant aliens and even more unpleasant Starfleet officials that want to visit the Enterprise for various reasons.

On board, there have been all sorts of parties for various reasons; this usually ends up with people in the brig. The best was probably the five-part Christmas party that was full of entries by YOU.

The senior staff of the Enterprise have all been had their lives featured, such as the awkward love lives of Riker, Deanna and Worf. The rivalry between Deanna and Jadzia has been enough to give any Captain a headache.

Geordi is still trying to be like a hip DJ, and he and Data have both obtained girlfriends in the last 12 months. Deanna is still the shopaholic she's always been, and enjoys visiting the Starfleet Mall with Bev.

Riker is still getting plenty of donuts from the replicator, while I continue to fill out job application forms for him.

Beverly is continuing to get annoyed about the holographic doctor she is forced to be in Sick Bay with. He drives her crazy with his talk of union riights. As for my relationship with Beverly, that is strictly classified.

Wes drives me crazy with his habit of saving the ship whenever he turns up on it; this only seems to happen when he's on it. What a relief he's usually at the Academy. The lowest point was when I was forced to go on holiday with Wes to Portugal last year.

Who knows where the Enterprise will go from now on? I certainly don't!

-----------------------------

I'd like to thank each and every one of you who has been reading my Journal over the last twelve months, from the earliest ( Ciera ), who is very special to me, to the latest ( Miss Cellania ) and all those in between. I've made a lot of good friends on my bloglist, such as Nic , Friday's Child , No Average Girl , the couragous Minerva , TNChick (who designed the main picture on this page) and so many more. All those on my bloglist, to be truthful, I consider my friend. To all the others, thank you. My bloglist will be longer soon!

Ciera had her own First Blogaversary on 29th April; take a look! This lovely lady started the same time in the blogasphere as I did, and has been my great friend since then.

From all what we read, we learn a little about the lives we lead in different parts of the world. Thank you for letting me in yours;

Hope you'll continue reading my Journal in the future; your comments are of so much value.

Happy Blogiversary! You've boldly gone where many bloggers have not gone before, because they simply burn out. This must be a very difficult endeavor, and I appreciate your efforts.

Here's to another year!

Yay!
