It's A Blogiversary!


This post marks my hundredth post. One hundred times I came on here and poured my heart out. Actually, no I didn't but I tried. I use this blog for the most part to amuse myself and to mark things that I want to remember. I hope that in turn people who read it are also amused.

Here are my top 5 things that I would like to have a hundred of:

Grandma's Pickles

Episodes of Fraiser ( I used to have a crush on Niles in highschool)

Shoes

My nehpews giggle's

Massages


Here are my top 5 favorite posts:

Retraction

A Picture Speaks A Thousand Words

My Pister

If I Were To Become An Alcoholic

How I Got Melissa To Make Me Supper

Here are my top five favorite comments on my blog: (This ended up just being my most recent fav's because it was way too much work to read all the comments and someone was complaining to me today that she needs me to post something. Her name starts with a J and she wines a lot)

That picture reminds me of the scene from My Best Friend's Wedding where one of the kinky bridesmaids licks the David ice sculpture and gets stuck on it... So don't do that. No licky.

A few years ago during about with the flu I forgot to take out my very loose fitting dentures when I puked. I was feeling so terrible that I didn't notice that my teeth were gone until after I flushed. They got stuck in the trap, Marv had to remove the whole toilet to get them out. Boiling water and lots of bleach and I had my smile back. I know, GROSS!!! but new dentures are about $800.00. I have since got new ones.

I just remembered some things that I do... I have a certain rhythm and beat for when I brush my teeth. If I mess up and get the rhythm wrong and I end up on the wrong beat, it bugs me. And if I'm doing something that gets only one of my hands wet, I have to rub them together so they are both slightly damp. Even if there is a towel nearby. Then I toweldry them both. I think I remember that phone cord at Auntie Susan's. I did the same thing. And it's spelt nauseous.

Some Blogs That I love That You Should Read: (Family has been excluded to avoid bitter rivalry right before Christmas)

Sambot

Boobs, Injuries and Dr. Pepper

Now we are going to touch on a very important part of my blog that I have been wanting to write about for a while:

The Site Tracker.
It consumes me. I have even gone so far into my site tracker to see the longitude and latitude of where people read from to try and guess who they are when I don't know. I check it daily. I know when someone from my old work place is on and I know when my ex's read it. Yes, that's right I know who you are! But, then there's the ones who I have no clue about. Like, Warman! Who reads my blog from Warman? It has be bothering me. I've tried to think of who you could be and I have no clue. If you are from Warman I would appreciate and "annon" comment even. Just to say hi. What is with all these unkown countries that are being listed? I have come to the conclusion that they actually don't exsist and aliens from the galaxy have taken intrest in my blog. Perhaps, they need an example of an intelletcually advanced human to study. If I were them I would look somewhere else. But, you can't argue with aliens. They know when they see a good thing.

Top 5 Locations That I Have No Clue Who They Are:

Redwater, Ontario

Warman, Sask

Grande Prairie, Alberta

Canora, Sask

Corunna, Michigan

If you read this blog and have never commented today is your day. Today, you can be heard. Do it for me. It will make me so happy.

At this moment this is the summary from my site tracker:

VISITS

Total 2,262
Average Per Day 28

I looked to see what topic I have talked about the most on my blog. Buffoonery and Vittles. A pretty good representation of what goes through my mind. Food, and goofing off. I have my priorities straight. So, this is it. I can't wait for the next 100. If anyone is wondering, the marker didn't wash off all the way and I am worried that I will have to go to work tomorrow with this faded writing on my face. See the sacrifice that I go through just for this blog? There are some things I refuse to sacrifice though. Fraiser is on, and I gotta go.

Also, for my hundredth celebration, I'm not going to let that spell checker mock me. I'm going to stare my horrible spelling and gammer in the face. I'm not going to go back and read this and I'm not going to click that horrible ABC link. So, there you go people. Enjoy. Laugh. Point fingers are your screen in awe of it. This Christmas it's my gift.
From me.
To you.

Note: Fraiser isn't on. Oh the humanity! I also ate a whole package ot tic tac while writing this post.

Uhhhh... Congrats.

And... I'm pretty sure I'm Canora and Uncle Abe and Aunty Margaret Grand Prairie.

Also, I hope that marker never washes off. It looks good and I want to take you through the malls with it on.

Toad said...

That was me.

Melissa said...

i think warman is martensville. cause martensville is never on there. and i think it has to do with where a server is or something technical like that. and i always thought yorkton came up as regina.

Becky said...

Nopers. I asked Glen.

Becky said...

Canora is MUCH closer so I suppose that makes sense...

Becky said...

Wouldn't it be cool if Ang got 100 comments for her 100th post?

Becky said...

I think that would be cool.

You know if each of us writes ten comments it would only take ten commenter's to get there.

Becky said...

Or I could do it all myself.

Ang, You are too funny. Happy blogaversary or something. Hope the marker washes off before you have to decorate for Christmas. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Wow Ang..100 posts.

footsack said...

That is totally amazing!!! Way to go!

...and yes, I think 100 comments would be very cool.

footsack said...

I'm not sure if I will do 10 myself because I know that you have way more than 10 people commenting on your blog.

footsack said...

In a way I hope the marker doesn't wash off. I know you could pull that off if anyone can.

Melissa said...

hey becky...if canora is yorkton then you must never look at my blog cause i've never had canora come up as a location on my site tracker.

Melissa said...

i just cross-referenced my two site trackers (i'm just as obsessed as ang) and on one of them *yktn* is included by some of the ip addresses but the city says regina. and those same hits on my other tracker either come up as unknown country or regina.

Melissa said...

in his hand... a pair of pants..

"People.. hear me.

gandhi shuffles off stage left, and mother teresa appears on top of a cloud...

Anonymous said...

I really feel..
that here at the 78th post we should ask ourselves...

"And WHERE ARE WE GOING???"


(everyone reading will yell at the screen "HIGHER!!")

Unknown said...

Mother Teresa appears, illuminated by a spotlight, her freshly washed hair gleaming in the light.

"We can all make a difference, all we need is your clothing tags, those useless little bows on your bras, and we will clothe nations!!*

The Rocky theme song starts playing, quietly at first, but quickly crecendos and Mother Teresa raises her arms triumphantly.

"Give us your tags and your bows. Heck, while your at it, why don't you give us WHOLE bras, WHOLE panties!"

The crowd is stirred into a frenzy and starts throwing lingerie on stange without abandon. One particularly frilly pink pair hits Mother Teresa in the face.

"I am a rock star!!"

Elecric guitar is lowered from above into her hands, and she stars with a mind-blowing gut-ripping solo.

"We will save the world with ROCK!! Oh YEAHHHH!! C'mon, get out her, Gandhi, and let's ROCK ON!"

There is a suspenseful pause while Mother Teresa looks stage right, awaiting Gandhi's entrance. And then...

Unknown said...

Okay, I took a little bit of creative license there. And now, I have to go to work.

Anonymous said...

GANDHI appears.. from stage left... but he slides across the stage on his knees!

"I WANNA ROCK!"
he yells..

which stirs the crowd into a frenzy!

The volume of the music increases.. the steady rock rhythm..
then suddenly.
SILENCE.

one spot light.. illuminates Gandhi center stage.

He slowly opens his robe
to reveal his
"Lord of the Dance" belt buckle!

Mother Teresa pulls out her pan flute and begins the theme music..
and Gandhi raises his arms as he begins to clog across the stage.

Becky said...

Donna you are out of control.

Becky said...

Yayah.

Toad said...

Michael Flatley "Feet of Flames stands up from his seat in the crowd. Offended that someone would claim to be Lord of the Dance.

Marching up to the stage, he glares deep into Gandhi's eyes.

They stand in their corners. A silenced hush comes over the crowd.

Michael slams his left foot into the stage floor with his powerful muscular thigh. The sound echo's through the building. He opens his shirt to reveal his greased up chest. His eyes blazing.

Mother Teresa raises her electric violin.

It begins.

(my stomach hurts i've been laughing so hard)

Holy crap. Holy holy crap.
This is blogging history right here, and we're only a little ways from 100.

Nope, no blog, can't check. Ah well. And I love how anal Melissa is, even though I've never met her either. Cracks me up. I read her blog all the time but never comment, because I think she may be like, Umm who are you? Mitz's kid? Do I know Mitz?

Also: can anyone help me?
I'm looking for the definition of the word "trollop".
My husband called me a trollop the other night at dinner and I don't know what it means. I suspect something like a woman with loose morals, but I'm really unsure. I just knew enough to act offended.

Melanie said...

Crap, I went over. Well, you're at 92 with this one, and now may be a good time to discuss if you want everyone to stop at 100 exactly. Would 101 upset you, cause it looks possible. I would think it would screw up the apt symmetry of this post and it's subsequent comments, but it's your blog after all.

I myself... like to mix it up.

if someone is watching.. I definitely take the more dramatic approach...
stopping often to give little facial expressions like..
"Oh.. what could THIS be?"

If no one is watching..
I'll rip that sucker open and go straight for the goods.

I think her and I could compose some great tales together.

oh man.. I just noticed an error.

dang... I was so excited when Mother Teresa entered that I mistakenly said that Donna was saying the quote about everyone being in a rush.

readers? I hope that this won't confuse you.

it is quiet scary to think that I can sit here.. in the quiet.. Christmas music softly playing in the background - I think its the TransSiberian Orchestra - and I can just write these things.

sirens wail...
fireworks shoot...

and Donna stands on the stage...
she smiles coyly to the audience..
gently scanning her crowd with gracious humility...

and her right hand slowly is raised up above her head...

and with dignity..
she executes...
the most awesome...
GRAND BOW

bending at the waist...
dropping completely to the ground.

and.. a swift motion up..
her hair sweeps gigantically around.. and right back into place..

a smile beams across her face..
the music swells..
then..
silence.
and black.
