(not only is it the 10th anniversary of aladdin on broadway today —

IT'S ALSO THIS BLOG'S 13TH ANNIVERSARY.

that also means i've been roleplaying on tumblr for 13 years. i've definitely wrote for over a dozen characters, but aladdin has my oldest blog. i believe bolinity is the second oldest that's still "active" since i started writing him on may 5th, 2012 [of course all my blogs have had lengthy hiatuses here and there]

how wild is that. time is a weird soup. how dare this blog be older than all of my not-adult students.)
