Even though the name of my blog initially was ‘Lullabies from La La Land’, I replaced it entirely after letting you know the intricacies behind the name change. But somehow I’ve a feeling that I just might end up changing the name again in the future, so you can all imagine how bad a mother I would be when I become one. So ‘Getaway Chronicles’ turns one year old tomorrow, exactly on the date of our anniversary because that is the day I decided to publicly post almost an entire bunch of my written material that I have been writing for a while. I know that I wasn’t consistent in writing in the past one year, specially when I took a long hiatus before and after my India trip. But, my blog has been extremely special for the past one year and it has seen me go through different aspects of my life, whether it be through the happy posts, the hyper ramblings, the sad ones, the depressing monologues, the angry rants, the weird stories and of course, my philosophical take on life, afterlife, Ah! I was a mess and the blog has taken me through a beautiful journey of jotting down memories and moments that I would want to savor going ahead.
The blog somehow feels like my baby and I owe a huge chunk of it to Bigshot for always pushing me to keep doing what I do. When I started writing, I was worried about what others might perceive about my views and opinions. I was afraid of the criticisms that I knew will come along with it. I wasn’t sure I even wanted to show everything I wrote for everyone to see because I felt protective of everything I wrote, just like how you would feel when someone tries to read your diary. I was iffy about putting myself out there and feeling vulnerable about the things I write. If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know that I make fun of Bigshot and I never miss an opportunity to write about the silly goof ups he makes. But never has he ever told me to not to write something about him or have taken anything I’ve written in the wrong sense. That’s how much he wants to see me express more in the blog and that’s how much he wants me to stay around in my happy place. Because this blog is my happy place and without Bigshot, my parents, my brother and sis-in-law, I don’t think I would have continued writing every day without losing the fire. And having had the liberty to write anything and everything about them without having the fear of ever hurting any of them shows how much they love and support me and I never take it for granted.
Having said all that, I don’t think it’s not fair to not mention the most important reason for my blog to have survived. These are the people who also fed, burped, bathed and changed diaper of my baby(I’ll stop with the baby metaphor now) by always encouraging, supporting and giving me the most amazing feedbacks. I’ve more friends, closer relations and a much larger family of readers through the blog and I’m forever grateful for it. IF I had to name everyone of you who reads my blog and supports me some way or the other, I can name every single one of you right now because that is how much I value my blog family. I know this post has become a cheesy thank you note, but it’s only fair to talk about every single one of you when I’m writing about my blog’s first birthday.

In the past five to six months, I’ve become more comfortable writing and expressing myself in the blog. Also, because I’ve stopped over-thinking about everything I write, I’ve become much more consistent in writing every day. So, what lies ahead for this blog in the coming years? I want my happy place to become one such happy place for everyone who reads this blog. That’s all I want. When you tell me that my blog brings a smile to your face, for me, that has been the best compliment I had ever received and I want to continue sharing my happy times, gloomy times, cranky times, crazy times and all the other emotions at all times. That is my only wish for this birthday.
The temperature in Greensboro is going way down and as I sit on my couch fully covered in a doubled up blankets, with a hooded jacket and socks on my feet, I wonder how we are going to get out of the house tomorrow for our anniversary. We haven’t decided on an anniversary trip yet, but it should happen once the weather isn’t extremely cold and when it would actually start feeling like the spring season. I know it has been steeping hot in Kerala and other parts of India, so I’ll shut up about the cold weather, because I know how annoying the heat can be. Winter or summer, don’t forget to stay hydrated people. 🙂 Have an awesome day/ good night blog fam! 🙂

I’m an ordinarily odd person who is pleasant to talk to. When I’m not trying to be funny, I would be lying on the floor bawling my eyes out. I write weird stories, real life snippets, traumatic and dramatic memories along with doses of unsolicited advices. 🙂
