This Sunday will be my 2 year blogiversary. In two years, I’ve posted over 400 times and received over 10,000 comments. Can you believe that? 10,000 comments! Doesn’t that seem like a lot? I remember anxiously awaiting my first comment and feeling overjoyed when I got it. I still get a thrill every time I get a comment. If you have left one of those comments: THANK YOU!
Blogging has been a wonderful addition to my life. It has allowed me to be creative and commune with others on my own schedule. It has given me the courage to express myself with my own words.
In the beginning, I used to check my numbers all the time. I was curious to see how many people were stopping by daily and where they were from; it got a little obsessive. I don’t do that anymore, but in honor of my blogiversary I took a peak at the numbers.
In the last month I had visitors from 55 countries, who spoke 22 different languages.
How did these people find me? Some of them already knew me, but some came through keyword searches. Let me share some of these lovelies with you…
- Retractable Christmas lights (One of my many ideas that I’ve never really followed through with)
- Second hand fart (Click the link if you want a laugh)
- 13 weeks pregnant
- dumped by my doctor
- my vagina is so big
- 10 reasons your husband doesn’t get it
- four letter word insults
Hmmm… I don’t know how I feel about some of those, but I guess I’m happy to be found.
And now your Friday Fortune Cookie (don’t forget to add “in bed” at the end, if you are so inclined):
Courtesy is contageous.

Alright, I’ll fess up to that dumped by my doctor one, but that vagina is too big was definitely someone else.

Wish I knew what type of searches took place for people to find me. I could use a laugh. Congrats on the two years. You deserve the attention you get. You are a good and creative writer.
Kristin_The_Goat says
Two years – Wow. It seems like you’ve always been blogging. I guess I found you around the time you started blogging. Sure am glad I did.
The keyword searches that find me aren’t nearly as humorous! LOL
Snuggle Wasteland says
Congrats on all your blogging success!

I’m happy I found you Mami. After reading Second Hand Fart I wish my blog was anonymous so I could let those kind of stories rip. 😉

Mrs4444 says
I wonder how we found each other….hm….Oh well…I’m just glad we did:) You’re one of my favorite bloggers. Happy Blogiversary, again 🙂
unknownmami says
I know exactly how we found each other. I had just started blogging, I wrote a post one Friday and called it Fragmented Fridays. That same day, I went to read someone’s blog that I follow and they were participating in your Friday Fragments and I thought we must be kindred spirits. I’ve been following you and linking up for FF ever since. I believe I’ve done over 75.
