Break out the cone-shaped party hats and annoying noisemakers for my blog
Freudian Slips turned three years old today. Writing with a particular style and purpose in mind while keeping self-imposed timelines has made me a better writer than when I hatched this blog back in 2004.
I would like to take this time to thank my faithful readership and my irony-rich life, which continues to fill up internet space with only a smidgen of additional storytelling on my part. The words at my fingertips that connect to the world at large is exciting, fascinating, and strangely rewarding.
Five hundred short stories and fifty thousand visitors later, no viable publisher has come forward to publish this menagerie of irony for untold millions. Still, I feel compelled to continue to write for the betterment of myself and anybody who will listen at a close second. I receive emails from all over the world, if for no other reason than a Google search leads to my authored short stories on subjects people were interested in learning more about.
So may the anonymous comments continue because I still do not know your identities in most instances. Thanks to the anonymous donor of Broadway theatre tickets. Thanks to the high-ranking employee of a large book publisher who mailed me free hardback books. Thanks to the marketing department over at The FX channel for the care package you sent after reading here I was an actor on one of your television shows. Thanks to the patrons of my book
Stop and Smell the Silk Roses for not making me honor the money back guarantee. Special thanks to my generous readers who made bonafide donations into my Paypal account. I would like to thank all of the people who I would not know on the street if they walked by me but I would recognize their email address this side of the dot.com.
Now if you will excuse me, I have been babbling on so long about this birthday of sorts that I forgot that I have to pee.

WOW! three years, hats off, your stories over the years have been very entertaining. Can't believe I 've been reading them for all that time. Keep it coming. I believe I 've been the only guest blogger in those three years, but as always will remain anonymous. Solute!

Thanks, now how about throwing me two free nights at one of the AC casinos for a little R&R? lol
mommanator,
I try to make my stories about the job a social worker's landscape. Interesting, rewarding, and unusual at the same time.
Okay! Pack your bags and get going!
ET, forget about the blogger, I need two nights in AC. I need some fun. I just need to be loved.
Congrats Joe, I'm so happy I found you.
Congratulations on your three year mark! This post reads like an award acceptance speech. Are you practicing or is it just coincidence? *wink* I've been reading about your acting career as well ... you go, Joe!
weary,
When a writer makes more money acting than he does storytelling, something is off center. Thanks for stopping by.
