75k Visits, 110k Views…. 59k uniques This Year

Yeah I know there are a billion sites that get that in a day, but still feels like victory of sorts since it’s pretty much 3x what I did last year. Mind you, most of the views come from searching engines, but I want to believe it’s because of all the love. It’s a strange love though. More like an abusive relationship where I yell at you and you still come back. So I guess that makes you guys dogs. But whatever, analogies, and venomous typing, aside I couldn’t have done it without you: random google searching person. You’ve made this site the 735,849th most popular site in the world (277,328 in India… Yeah India. I’d say I owe you a drink but I don’t think I could afford that.) Maybe if I’m extra special I can break into the top 500,000 next year.

Ok I realize that goal is like a product placement for Mad TV’s Lowered Expectations, but you know what? Screw you. As the late and great Leslie Nielsen put it, “It’s a topsy-turvy world, and maybe the problems of two people don’t amount to a hill of beans. But this is our hill. And these are our beans!” I’ve got my beans. You can’t take that from me.

Ok nerd rage subsiding, I’d like to thank some people for this “accomplishment”. First off, I want to thank me for being chock full of awesome. I’d also like to thank… eh… me? What? You thought I was going to say you? I’m waaaaaay too narcissistic for that. (Expect for India, I heart you India)

Anyway, as this post spirals down into the inevitable useless drivel that all two repeat readers have come to expect, I think it’s time to wrap things up, so I’ll leave you with this thought:

Hi.
