This just 'IN'

According to my Blogger Profile User Stats, my blog has either hit a significant milestone, or become a significant millstone, depending on how good a speller you are or how much you dislike long stories, such as the type I'm given to write.

I started my blog on Monday, May 24, 2004. One Hundred and twelve posts later, in the second to last paragraph of today's "LA Stories (Part VI)" in the sentence that read, "When she arrived in Birmingham, she cut her losses and decided to fly home when the time came," the word “in” was my blog's 100,000th word published.

Wooohoooooooo!

Just call me The Big Verbowski.

Cue the dancing girls.

Free Wheel of Fortune: Home Edition games for everyone. The vowels are on me.

Thanks to all of you who have invested the time to read through a goodly portion of my long-winded yarnage, tedious tales, and wordy repartee.

Apparently, out of all the words in my vocabulary, "brevity" just isn't one of them. I'd like to change that but — sheeyeah, right — who am I kidding?

Now, let's see if we can hit 200K by Christmas...
