well, it happened

something big has happened you guys….and i completely forgot about it.

and it is something that involves YOU!!

Yes, you, there on the couch reading this. YOU are involved!!

MY BLOG HAS OVER 1,000 VIEWS!!

I KNOW RIGHT!?!?! I CAN’T BELIEVE IT EITHER!!

I get pretty excited about my blog.  And 1000 views is pretty much my biggest accomplishment since I am not able to make honor roll or place in science fair competitions anymore.

I even received this award:

I would like to thank the academy...and mostly everyone else. I would also like to give a shout out to Chunk from The Goonies, who taught me that it's okay to over indulge in food when upset. Also a big thank you to the Packers for winning the Super Bowl this year! Thanks for your time and money! And drive safe!

It actually topped 1000 last Friday but despite my beautiful and festive weekend activities that didn’t allow much time for the computer, I didn’t realize it and I never posted it.

apparently these guys knew about all the views and were waiting for me with this when I got home. Thanks guys!

So I just wanted to say thanks to all of you…unless there is actually only one person out there reading this who somehow travels between the US, Spain, Canada, Germany, Finland, and Poland to read this…that’s right…multiple countries being taken over by thingsofamber! Sorry for that…I am just slightly excited.

Anyway, really though – thanks. I know I’m not the best at blogging (yet…) but I have been enjoying it – so thanks to you (mostly my friends and others who I blackmail and guilt into looking at this) for reading. Hopefully with some time I can find a more concentrated area to blog on and actually write the posts that I promise to and also not complain and rant as much.

And if anyone has any thoughts or wants me to write about a certain topic, please let me know!

And if you don’t know, 1000 is a lot! That’s like 100 handfuls of mangoes if there were 10 mangoes in each handful. Which is nearly impossible because that’s just probably heavy and I don’t know if anyone’s hands are that big to carry that many mangoes at once. If you have hands that big, let me know by commenting below.

Thanks again, guys.
