Mini Milestones

This isn't some life changing milestone like winning an Oscar or running a marathon or falling in love. But this is a milestone of work and gratitude.

This week I surpassed 5,000 views on my blog. Of course in the grand world of the internet, this isn't even a drop in the bucket (more like half a molecule, maybe), but it is a mini milestone for me nonetheless. I began blogging because writing still feels like somewhat of a chore (I'd much rather edit), so I needed motivation to write on a regular basis about topics I liked. While this is still my main purpose, the function of writing is for people to read it! So it's grand to have people read what I'm writing and perhaps be entertained or feel solidarity or maybe even be a wee bit more curious about the world, even if that world is only filled with movies and rants.

So thank you and thank you for coming and reading and commenting! I hope to see you here again soon and often. And since you know that I want the practice, let me know if there's anything you want me to review, research, or opine about.

Fun Milestone Facts!

1) My most popular post to date is this one about Nathan Fillion.

2) I've had one spammer comment, which I deleted immediately.

3) I've had two strangers comment. I'm fairly certain that means I'm made in the shade.

4) My favorite posts to write are Trailer Tuesdays, but they generally get the least amount of views. (They're probably only my favorite because I get to watch loads of trailers and not feel like I'm procrastinating.)

5) I'm fairly certain that this post that damns denim capris has lots of hits because people are searching for denim capris to buy. Sigh.
