Romperz.com was the first domain that I ever registered. I did it to have a spot to play on the Internet. The first year it was through a lot of transformations like beng solely about GameCube to being a website about Sunday School lessons. I finally decided to go with a subject close to my hear and chose casual games. The first blog on it was a php script called Orca that I absolutely loved. It was a blog that you could stick anywhere. I used Cutenews for my content management and just stuck the Orca blog on the front page. Then my ISP updated PHP and Orca no longer worked. So that’s when I made the switch to WordPress.

I’ve really enjoyed blogging through the years. It keeps me up to date on casual and video games. It also gives me a platform to talk about games at large. It is definitely a great stress reliever and also since becoming a mom, it’s nice to have a blog that is just mine. My blog helps me to keep my identity as a gamer and also be a mom, wife, and anything else I want to be. I also love checking stats and hoping that my ramblings turn on a gamer to a game or steer then away from buying something that they wouldn’t like.

Here is a little video I did that pretty much sums up why blogging makes me happy, especially blogging here at Romperz, my very first domain.
