8,000 blog posts!?

Internet

This silly milestone aside, wc(1) reports I’ve also written 881,118 words. That’s delightful.

I started this blog as a teenager in late 2004, and it’s among the longest-running projects I’ve ever maintained. Sitting in a coffee shop in my thirties writing it, and reviewing back at home, it doesn’t seem real.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to read my disparate ramblings, whether you’re a new arrival or someone who’s been coming back for years. You don’t know how much it means to me. 💙
