This blog has reached:
See?
And it only took 6 years, 6 months, and 8 days.
Now, you might think that is a very long time to reach 1 million hits.
You would be wrong because it is, in fact, an extremely, stupendously, enormously long time to reach 1 million hits. It's like...whatever the opposite of dog years would be.
Regardless, I have a lot of people to thank for visiting this site a million times!
And the bots.
They sure help my numbers, but of course the most important people to thank are you all, who come and actually read my new posts.
I know this blog is not everyone's cup of tea (despite my early illusions that everyone would love it!)
Oh well.
It doesn't fit into a specific niche and my schedule has become rather uh, sporadic. That makes it also fall off a lot of people's radars so when I see those of you dedicated to keep coming back, I feel very fortunate.
I know I could increase my readership again by visiting and commenting on lots of other blogs, but that wears me out and it feels too self-serving to pop up in the comments in the hopes that the writer might return the favour; especially when I don't post regularly. I do still read blogs, but don't always comment and no longer go to every blog on the list.
I know we're all in it together but TriGirl is a full on introvert.
Plus, I prefer organic and real interactions over the quick accumulation of views (even though that is fun.) I may not post often, but I'm just not ready to retire quite yet because I love drawing my little adventures. And every time you visit, comment, or share my site, it fills me with gratitude.
So for that, you, my readers, get a big thumbs up.
