A salute to a fellow plate-blogger
Plate-blogging is a strange thing to do. Few people wake up in the morning and wonder, “What awesome vanity plates am I going to see today?” And then think, “Where should I put them on the Internet?” And then take the time to do so. The looking, the capturing and the blogging, it doesn’t take all the time in the world. But it takes some time and some dedication.
So, I want to give a tip of the cap to friend Mary, who kept her PL8WTCH Tumblr going for quite a while and who deserves a visit from you. It’s all kinds of entertaining. And through the last three months, it’s been nice to know there’s some fellowship in the plate-blogging life.
My favorite posts from her blog:
-Her second post ever, “YEAH OK.”
-”BTL FAN,” which friend Heidi spotted for this blog just this week.
-Learning that “EATTHE” Kids First belongs/ed to her friend’s brother.
-“DUCHEZ” which can’t be real but somehow is.
-The truly kind and outward-looking “URDAMAN.”
-Yet another WTF plate.
-”CRZYNLUV” which also showed up in this blog and may have lived in my old apartment building.
-Another shared one: “YANNI.”
-The I-can’t-believe-it-exists “VEHICLE.”
And so many other good ones. I love the few that somehow magically overlap. I love the many I’ve never seen before.
