~Keep It 100-Ish

Originally posted 25 Nov 2017

First off, “keep it 100” is not a saying that you would normally hear come out of my mouth. Second, as for the featured picture and accompanying accomplishment, I have not published 100 posts. Well, not really, not in my eyes at least. I started the Flashback Friday thing a little while ago and I don’t really count those as “posts”. Also, there may or may not be a few private posts on my blog which you are unable to see. I’m not sure if these are included in the count or not. So, I could either wait until I hit this milestone legitimately or I can post about it now with a disclaimer. I choose the latter, hence the “ish” in the title.

My “Hundredth” post!? As with every milestone, I like to use my accomplishments as a way to give back to my readers. I mean after all, my blog wouldn’t be what it is without you guys. So go ahead, give yourselves a pat on the back and two finger-pistol pew pew‘s in the mirror! You deserve it. And, I owe you more than just my gratitude. I give you, this post (doesn’t seem like much, I know)!

So take to the comment section! Be selfish, I’ll allow it. Promote yourself, leave a link to your blog in the comments. And then, reward yourself by checking out the page(s) of my follower(s), either by clicking their linked comments or by scrolling down to the My Community section at the bottom of this (and every) page.
Until next time, do you even blog?

P.S. I kinda gamed the game here. I realized that I was coming up on 100 posts and decided to post this early, without a featured picture, just so that I could get the 100 post notification, screenshot it, and come back here to edit it in before posting it publicly. You call it “cheating” I call it “planning”, “tomayto” / “tomahto”… No one actually says “tomahto” do they?

P.S.S. Now would also be a great time for you to give me some constructive criticism if you are so inclined… Lay it on me.

    I enjoy your blog posts. And btw people do say ‘tomahto”. They usually live in England or the British Isles. They think “tomayto” is odd . C’est la vie!!

    hehe *pew pew pew!!* LOL I literally laughed out loud at that one Alphonso 😛 It could be that I’m up early for work on a Saturday morning and the coffee hasn’t kicked in yet, or you could be a comedic genius…I’m going to go with the second option.

    Also: congrats on your posts!! I think all the posts count – reblogs, private ones, whatever. They all count. Keep on keeping on!

    10. Hmm, I’ll have to look it up… And “only 3”, in 1990? I was 5 in 1990, but reading that made me feel really old lol

      LOL if that makes you “really old” I guess I’m just old? It’s only two years younger though so does that mean I’m in the “really old” category too?! We started off on such a good foot today Alphonso! With the pew pews and the giggles. And now you’re calling me old….such a sharp turn….

    12. LOL my apologies, I would never call you old. “Older” sounds nice though haha
