When you blog, every little notification is a blessing. It’s a sign that somebody somewhere took the time to read and then either like or comment on one of your posts.
The other day I got one of the little trophies that informed me that I have received 1000 likes on my blog. It might not be many to some, but it’s a huge amount to me, and I am thankful to every eejit out there who took the time to show their appreciation for one of my posts. It means an awful lot.

In a perfect world where money was no object I would invest in one of those new fangled 3D printers and produce a replica of that very same trophy, which I would then set on my desk as a reminder that I have achieved something. Failing that I might just stuff a tennis ball inside an orange skin and buy a marker! Result and much cheaper too!
Thank you, thank you and again I say thank you!
Today has been one of those days where at various times as it progressed I thought my brain was going to explode from the sheer volume of information being thrown at it. The great thing about being busy is that you have no time to process said information, so you push it to the back of your mind to make room for the next exciting installment.
Then you leave work and all hell breaks loose.
Instead of shutting down and putting a lid on the days proceedings, my brain has decided to rewind and regurgitate every piece of information it stored. Eh, hello there brain, I’m going home, can we not restart this tomorrow. The answer, well that’s a big fat resounding nope, no can do!
Remember to ring such and such, tell the boss about the door, crap I forgot to send an e-mail, they want that report by when…….just shut up already!
You know it’s bad when the train conductor asks to see your ticket and you tell him you can’t remember if you put it on the spreadsheet or not. Made outstandingly worse by the fact that you look at him like he’s stupid as he looks at you like you’re deranged. Then the penny drops and you say, ohhhhh train ticket and smile a smile that you hope will erase the last 5 minutes from the memory of everyone in the vincinity!
Ah well, it’s almost tomorrow! Lets hope sleep resets the old grey matter!
Congratulations!

Congratulations on the likes, well deserved. I think your idea for the 3D trophies is great, I bet if you did that you could set up an order page and have a bustling business here on wordpress. I’d be willing to make a purchase.

LIKE. There you go, on your way to 200 likes!
Yeah, brains tend to keep on going, don’t they? Mine do this at night, unfortunately… But that also resulted in a good idea, so that’s good.
I hope yours will calm down soon!
