i have made it!

i am a success as a blogger. not only has my blog drawn scorn and created strife in some of my acquaintanceship (i didn't actually consider those marks of success), but it has also received it's first bona fide spam post!! i'm pretty excited. i don't know if that's tied to hits or to length in service or what, but i'm pretty sure it only happens to truly successful bloggers. i am a star. (tho i do not endorse whatever is going on in that link.)
