So, I don't want to alarm anyone, but this post- the one you are reading right now- just so happens to be my 1,020th post! Get outta town Charlie Brown! I know. That is a lot of me talking, I mean typing. Blogging. Six and a half years worth. I am a totally different person today than I was when I started this blog. I go back and read some of my old posts and think, WOW! I was so ridiculous back then! I really should delete that. But I don't. Because I am the person I am today because of the person I was yesterday. And if I take the yesterday person away, who knows what would happen to the person of today.
OK, so that was like way super much deeper than I meant to be on this post.
When I was approaching my 1,000th post, I wanted to do a special post. But I was right in the middle of blogging about our Spring Break trip to Missouri and life was busy and crazy and I said oh, I'll do something for the 1,010th post. But my 1,010th post was right in the middle of me making 3 birthday videos in like 2 days. So, like, that wasn't gonna happen. And now here I am! 1,020. And I don't have a very good excuse for letting this one pass me by.
Except that I'm too lazy to come up with something fabulous. So what I did was I googled 1,000 blog posts and it took me like 3.5 seconds to find this picture. And I thought...well, that's still kinda lameish. So I tried to think of something else I could do with a thousand. And like always, song lyrics popped into my head. I started singing this in me noggin....
♫ But I would walk 500 hundred miles, and I would walk 500 hundred more. Just to be the man who walks a 1,000 miles then falls down at your door. Dah dahalat da. Dah dahalat da. Dah dahalat dahalat dahalat dahalat da da. ♫
Then that made me think about my teenage years back in the AWESOME Dallas East Stake. My sister Farrah and I made up a dance to that song (back in the early 1990's) that we did at our Stake Dances. 8 years ago, when my parents moved from Dallas to Utah, my brother Sam said they were still doing the same dance to that song. Right on sista! Right on.
So then I watched the video of the song on youtube. And I totally want to see Benny and Joon now! I forgot all about that movie. I can't remember a thing about it, but something tells me that if I were to sit and watch it, I would somehow know all the lines.
Alright. Well, I think that's about enough for my 1,020th post! I leave you this morning with this:
OK, well, apparently I won't leave you with that. But I will leave you with this. Click here.
OK again. I didn't think the video was gonna work but I published it and it did. If it stops working, you can click "here" above.
♫ Wella I would a blog 500 posts. Thena I would blog 500 more. Just to be the girl who blogs 1,000 posts then leaves them at your do-o-or ♫
