I post transcriptions of my childhood diaries from twenty years ago and then I comment on them as an adult. The photos were mostly taken by my mother.
Is this supposed to be funny?
Sure.
Sarah, are all of these entries really from your childhood and teenage diaries?
Yes. I'll post scans of the diaries soon. I promise.
So... we were best friends in the sixth grade and you don't even mention my name once!
I changed names. Sometimes I correct confusing misspellings and grammar. Otherwise verbatim ac litteratim est.
Oh. How old are you now?
I am always today's date minus January 2, 1978.
What about Mortified? And OPB's Think Out Loud? The Ironstag Hour?
You know I love Mortified. And here's me on OPB's Think Out Loud with Kevin Sampsell and Ben Yagoda. And you must check out our weekly podcast, The Ironstag Hour.
How long have you been doing this diary thing?
I started posting my 1987 diaries (age 9) on my Myspace blog in 2006.
I want more!
Well, okay: Twitter, Myspace, Flickr, Facebook, YouTube, Netflix, LinkedIn, Friendster, Pandora, and more to come.
I really want to leave a comment but I'm so shy...
Oh, please do! A blog fairy gets her wings every time you leave a comment.
Yours,
