    Twenty Years, Apparently

    The other day, I got the annual email reminding me to check all the information about my website.

    So I did my due diligence and skimmed through the details. Really, nothing has changed over the past twenty years except the host, but one line of data smacked me in the face:

    Domain information showing an original creation date of September 22, 2006.
    Holy shit, has it been twenty years?

    Twenty years of posts, experiments, abandoned ideas, and I’ll admit, a stupendous pile of drafts yelling, “Post me!” or “Finish me!” or, occasionally, “Why did you put me back into drafts???!?”

    And while it definitely hasn’t made me the millions I hoped would roll in when I first started, it turns out it was never really about that. It was for me.

    So, if you’ve stopped by, welcome to Papa Sandemano’s.

    And yeah—I think I’ll keep doing it.
