So, this is my 200th post. I’m marking the occasion because I forgot to mention my 100th and I feel like I missed out. This blog’s been going since April 7th, when I announced to the world I would spout ‘a hell of a lot of crap’, I think I’ve lived up to this claim.
In celebration of 8 months and 200 posts clogging up the internet I have the following for your delectation.
My first post, god I’m an idiot.
My first comment, apart from the comments I left for myself on my own posts.
I was so excited when I got my fist comment! When I started out I didn’t think anyone would ever read my blog, so getting a comment was a total thrill. I am so sad.
I still get dead excited now, and I check my emails about 30 times a day for comment notifications! Thanks for leaving comments when you do.
According to my ‘stats counter’ this blog gets about 30 visitors a day now. Wow. Thank you for coming back even though I have a tendency to post inane narcissistic nonsense and get my facts wrong.

Not a poet
p.s. In writing this I managed to write over my Feminism and Capitalsim post in preparation. Damn it.
I'm feeling totally hyper.
ReplyDeleteI've just had sardines for lunch and it grossed me out because their spines were all in tact.
I think I will go outside for a bit - fidgeting too much.
I know exactly what you mean when you write about obsessively checking for comments! Sometimes when I peruse other blogs I am seized by an insane/inane jealousy about how they are inundated with the things, basking in the attention, while my stats inform me I have 181 posts and a meagre 62 responses (although the blogspot version does contain a few more from the days before I launched the "deluxe" Wordpress one). So let me boost your numbers by congratulating you on your 200th milestone :)
ReplyDeleteThanks mate :)
ReplyDeleteI'll give you a sneaky trick that lets you see people are visiting even if no one says hi - get a stat counter account. I like the thought of having secret visitors too!
It does add another thing to obsessively check though.
Does Google Analytics work on blogs?
ReplyDeleteYou don't want to know how many posts I have made....
ReplyDeleteHappy 200th post.
ReplyDeleteYou're doing very good blog work...even if it is taking over your life!
I'm getting better about obsessively checking the blogs; now that we've got our regular commentators I don't feel so anvious about it.
It's very nice when a new person speaks though.
Big smiles from me :o). Thanks for the love everyone!
