As I was sitting down to once again stare at a blank post and wonder for half an hour what the heck I should write, I saw something on my dashboard. My blog statistics.
My mouth fell to the floor as I stared at the numbers before me.
I immediately knew I had to share. Mostly because I needed to post something because it’s been, like, a week or something and certain people are getting ancy and maybe some are even having withdrawals or something.
Probably not. But I’m not totally setting aside that idea.
So anyway. I made this blog back in the summer of 2006, nearly 6 years ago. Wowza. That was a lonnnnng time ago. Since then, I have written 379 posts and received 10,040 comments, 9,334 of which were spam, leaving 706 approved comments. That is a lot of commenting going on, people.
Since I made this blog, I have had many, many different themes and headers and such. I have found a few of my old headers which I will share with you in just a minute.
…
Okay now.
I can’t remember when this was made exactly, but I believe it was 2007. On this one we have me with my sheep, Little Brother, who I raised and showed at our local fair, and one of me with my dog, who was a puppy at the time, Jack. Or Moses. I changed his name sometime in 2008. It was Moses. Now it’s Jack. Captain Jack Sparrow. Such a better name than Moses.
Annnnnd this one was in…2009, I believe, shortly after we moved to Milton. I made it myself. Can you tell? I doubt it. As my mom said, “I would never have cut you out that gadgety.” FYI Mom, the word you are looking for is “Jaggedy”.
This one wasn’t too long ago. I think I changed it from this one about a year ago.
That’s just a few of the dozen or more headers I’ve had. I’ve had a lot.
Maybe I’ll eventually reach 1000 posts or something. Mom has, and she’s only had her blog for a year more than me.
Hmm.
I wonder if I’ll still be writing on thing when I have, like, 12 kids.
Maybe.
You should probably stay tuned. Things could get interesting.

Wooow, over 9,000 spam comments? You should be flattered!
Okay, not really. Spam is disgusting. I don’t know why people still buy it. Blegh.
Happy nearly 6 years of blogging! That’s a lot of commitment (and material!)! I’m sitting here waiting for that 1000th post. You should make a cake and throw a party for the blog once you get there. That would be awesome. Be sure to invite me! I’d like to get a byte outta that cake.
Hehe…get it? It’s funny because…the blog….is….
I am so sorry.
“I wonder if I’ll still be writing on th”
That’s the last part of the post. You’re leaving me hanging here, Kait. How does it END?!?!
Kait
Yeah the spam people really like me. I’d be a little creeped out about that except for the fact that they’re complete idiots. Their comments don’t even make sense. Sorry spammers, you have yet to win my affections.
Yeaaah that 1000th post is only…12 years around the corner, at the rate I’m going.
…
I need to step it up a noch.
And yes. You are hilarious. Ha. Ha. Ha. I almost forgot how to laugh but then realized that was the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of because people can’t just “forget” natural instincts. At least not usually. I wonder if I could sue for someone making me forget how to laugh.
UGH the stupid thing…I’ve corrected that ending so many times now and it will NOT go through. I shall try once more…
Savanah
YES, I am having major MAJOR withdraws…like I almost died before (I forget when) and I’m pretty sure my last thought was…omgosh…I wish I had some “kait” to read…..lol….seriously though. I need to make time for writing myself. I think it’s important to let those I love the most know what’s up in my life. I’m so inspired to start writing again!! YAY
Taylor Johnson
Oh look, it’s fixed! I have returned from the edge of my seat. This interestingness should be interesting.
And I’m sorry about the lame pun. I have a few influences. Blame them!
Kait
Nani:
Yeah I mostly figured you were totally thinking that. And yay for writing! I shall be keeping an eye on your blog now…
Taylor:
Yes. It’s fixed. I hope you didn’t fall off whilst you were sitting there. On the edge. Of your seat. Sounds precarious. You really should be more careful.
Mmm yes it’s just like you to blame others instead of accepting the blame as your own. Disappointed, Taylor. Disappointed.

Ahhh. Back in the day when a century was only nearly 6 years ago. I know in recent years they have made a century to be 100 years, much like they made Pluto not a planet. Those were the days.
Taylor Johnson
WAIT, Pluto’s not a planet?!
Moooooooom!!! Daaaaaaaad!!!
