This is the 100th entry in my curious little blog.
Had you told me as I posted my first entry back in late May that I would hit this milestone less than five months later, I would have been delighted if a little surprised; I wasn't sure I had it in me.
As it turns out, I did. But I would never have made it alone, and I need to take my hat off to a bunch of folks and say a heartfelt thank you. There's no false modesty here, so please forgive me if I sound like an Oscar-winner.
The first 80 days were made possible by my fun and sometimes sane interaction with my then-and-now Twitter buddies; idifficult, eolistpetite, Fishoutofsea, Gumley, RebeccaHasWrote and HarryHotstuff. Oh, and of course Britney.
And since the great unTwittered watershed, I have also been supported by a host of blogging friends who drop by, come what may; eolistpetite, iDifficult, CatLady, Janie, Ms. Unknown, Rebecca, Leah, Matthew, Nancy and Chrissy.
Stand and take a bow, people. You're the best.
So Indigo, I hear you ask, how will you be celebrating your Century?
Oh, in the traditional way; I'll cook something, cover it with candles and make a wish. Mmmm, doesn't that look yummy?

Hey, don't judge me!
Thanks to everyone who has read me.
See you all in around a year for my 200th entry!
Indigo

Congratulations, you old codger! :) To be sure, it's been my pleasure to read your posts, giving snippets of you and your life. Yours was the first post that I ever read, and it prompted me to create my own. Thank you, my friend! And I look forward to the next 100! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm..... PIZZA!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations indeed. I am a relative newcomer to your page really, but your humour and gentle nature is an absolute winner and I'm looking forward to the next century.
ReplyDeleteWow, 100 posts since May? You've been a busy boy. Congratulations!
ReplyDeletePizza is your favorite food, isn't it? :-)
Hey 'Chaser! I was the first one you read AND it inspired you? Good grief, what a compliment. Thank you =)
ReplyDeleteHey Matthew, as ever, you're too kind. But yeah, stick around; I'm hoping it'll be daft, colourful and fun.
Hey Chrissy, oh I don't knoooow... I may have eaten one or two? This weekend. ;>
Indigo
With extra Chili - awesome :)
ReplyDeleteA century and not out. Fantastic. It is an inspiration to find someone so productive after leaving the asylum.
ReplyDeleteHey Robbie, yes indeed! The century snuck up on me a bit, and I had to dash out to buy extras. A Morrison's large, thin crust meat feast is the starting point. But I added black olives, jalapeño chili peppers and a sachet of tomato and basil sauce over the top. Mmmmm...
ReplyDeleteHey 'Difficult, 100 not out? Does that mean I get to keep the cricket bat? COOOL!
100 and still fresh! Congratulations! I'm sure that there is much more to come.
ReplyDeleteBoy, how bad do I feel... the one day I take a day off from checking in and this happens? I'm such a loser! Please mail me a slice of leftover pizza, but hold the flame on the candle... the postal service frowns on that. Wait a minute... there aren't going to BE any leftovers, are there? Double Damn! Oh well.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS! You're always one of the highlights of my day! Glad you're here!
Ms. Unknown, thank you! And yep, I'm sure there's a few inches left in the bottom of the barrel ;>
ReplyDeleteHi CatLady! Leftovers? There weren't any by the time I posted the photo, let alone now. And thank you, it's nice to be a bright spot.
Indigo
i won't say i told you so but... ;)
ReplyDeletecongratulations on the milestone my friend.
*orders more pizza*
Hey Eolist, which bit of advice do you mean?
ReplyDelete"Write when you want to, you schmuck, not when you think you should"?
"Lose the Twitter archive, your other stuff is way better"?
Oooh! Was it "Build it and they will come"?
Well, it all worked out ok, whatever it was, so I guess you were right! ;>
Hey, I wonder if I went viral yet?
Indigo
congrats on triple digits! it really is a milestone, keep the stories coming!
ReplyDeleteHi Lana! Thank you, I shall forge ahead. No idea where I'm going next, but that's half the terror I MEAN FUN. Indigo
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your milestone! It has taken me over a year to produce fewer posts than you!
ReplyDeleteHi Nanodance, nice to see you here! A hundred entries does sound rather a lot, and some folks have wondered about the quality of the entries. To which I say:

Quality? Never mind the quality madam, just feel the width!
