Today is STL DPB's seventh anniversary. This is the 2,550th post. What did I get myself into?
I've made some wonderful friends, received exceptional hospitality and seen corners of the world I would never have otherwise known. I almost never read a book anymore, frequently falling asleep over my laptop. My photography and Photoshop skills are better. I've met so many interesting St. Louisans and become far more intimate with my adopted city. It has taken thousands of hours I could have spent doing something else.
Worth it? Hard question. It's addictive to find something you're reasonably good at that gets you praise.
