I’ve had a Miata in the garage from November 7, 1989 up until September 14th of this year. I have been blogging since January 1, 2002. On November 7th of that first year I made a blog post about my 13th “Miataversary.” The following year, 2003, I forgot and posted about it 3 days later. I missed a year and then did one in 2005 in the style of an On This Day post. Jump another 2 years to 2007 where for some reason I didn’t find those first few Miataversary posts, but I did link in there to a post from December of 2006 that mentions a cobbled together birth announcement I had created when we bought that first Miata back in 1989.
Then, I didn’t blog about Miataversaries for a whole decade until I started up again in 2017. In this one I linked to the story of the purchase of that very first Miata that I had written several years back. For the next 5 years (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 & 2022) I didn’t miss posting about the anniversary of purchasing that 1989 “Smurf” blue Miata.
Somehow, I think that next November7th, I won’t be writing a post about my 2nd Annual No-Miataversary.
