It was bound to happen at some point.
101.
My favorite Depeche Mode album, but it’s also the number of subscribers who have subscribed to this unlikely blog as of yesterday. Oh, I do realize other blogs have scads and scads of subs, and that this number is relatively small, but as Kylo Ren comments in Stars Wars VIII, “not to me.”

So, I’ll make this short and sweet: Thanks to all of you for making this number pop up on my screen this morning. I owe everyone thanks for their kindness. It took a decade to get here, so thanks for helping achieve this goal. “Join me,” and we will go to 201.

“Well done, newb,” says Damiana from Hellion.

“Oh, my lovely, ” says Isabel, “you rejoice in the small things in this
mortal frame. How humorous you are.”

“Where’s the fucking Ding Dongs and hot coffee,” complains Vangie.

“Oh boy,” says Tyler Hicksman, “if you think this is something, have I got
just the contract for you. Sign on the dotted line, welcome to Wonderland.”

“I can’t believe you named a blog after me,” says Ilyana,
“and straight after, you made me, ME, the villain of your
novel. All I wish for you is to let me keep this vessel.”

Today’s blogging is brought to you by Ding Dongs. Put one in your mouth.
You’ll lovvvvvvvvvvvvvve it.
