Why I Don't Make "Milestone" Posts

Because I become aware that I'm approaching one, then don't pay any damn attention, even when I've checked and know that I'm just five away ...

So, I started this thread in honor of my 5,016th post. In this incarnation of The Cellar.

I'm very dissapointed in myself for not noticing the approach of 5000. I could have and should have made a big production out of it...all very embarrassing for you, I'm afraid, but in an endearing way.....you know. daRn

The great ones do it with such ease that no one even notices.

I believe 5k gives you uber-giant status.

Though I've read scant few your postings, I feel near and honored to share this milestone with the wolf who, well, to be frank, is a beacon of understanding in this dark, dark world. Let's hear it for Commitment Officers! If not for they, who would know oneself sane?

Or, ya know, there' bouts.

Congrats. I was so unaware of my 1,000th...I was like, "Oh well". *shrugs*

But :thumpsup: for you.

I don't post from work.

I occasionally read, but don't log in because I know that the minute I do I will be inundatated by patients or phone calls and will lose my new post markers ...
