If it was a child it would be getting ready for kindergarten, grasping one of those fat pencils with a chubby fist.
If it was a dog it would finally be settling down, chewing fewer slippers, ruining fewer rugs.
If it was a house it would be settling into its foundation, growing into its lot, needing a fresh coat of paint on the trim.
But it is instead a blog, a body of work, an electronic oeuvre — and I'm not sure what it's ready for, other than continuing.
I began A Walker in the Suburbs on February 7, 2010. Happy Birthday, blog!
