*TSBB SPEAKS

*TSBB = The Secret Backup Blog

Twas exactly a year ago that I was created by Terra, on a sudden whim when she decided that she wanted to blog where no one knew her personally so that she could write about everything under the sun (or above it) that bothered her. Of course she wasn't known as Terra, back then, the silly anonymous wannabe girl used her real name... Ha! Ha!

(Terra nudges me to add that she will not be insulted by a blog)

Now, I'm insulted... anyway, as I was saying... since it's my birthday and all, Terra has kindly allowed me to say a word or two... but I feel that I deserve a whole post. Don't you think so?

I remember my first template... it was that brownish coloured thing with the fancy font (TNR)... but Terra had a strange preference for the Arial font, and she meticulously changed the font to Arial whenever she remembered. (Which was not often, by the way... and she will have to go back and republish! Ha! Ha!)

And then all of a sudden, she changed it to the blue one I'm currently in. I was a lonely blog at first... only a visitor or two at times and the occasional next blog random viewer who didn't give a damn. But Terra blogged on gleefully, and took in all her stories happily. Clearly I had nothing to lose.

All of a sudden, one day, I found myself being hit by more than the occasional two hits a day. Apparently, Terra had me networked... now I had people actually visiting. Too bad I wasn't prettier :(

(Terra adds in here, that sooner or later she will try some HTML... hmmm.... she says she doesn't have the time and asks if I want myself disfigured!)

Well, seeing that it's my birthday and all, the only gift I got from Terra is a post at 12 am on my birthday on a weekday. She says it's because she can't sleep... but I'd like to think it's because she loves me :D... I just realised that both Terra and I are Pisceans... maybe that's why we get along famously.

Anyway, on behalf of Terra, I would like to thank all the kind people who have dropped by and read and commented on the posts. It means a lot to the both of us.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Yours sincerely,
TSBB

  1. Happy Birthday, TSBB!

    Terra (whose name we know but we'll pretend we don't) is a great gal, isn't she? Be grateful she gave you life. And tell her that HTML doesn't hurt once she gets used to it.
