Blogiversary

A year ago today I created Popcorn Day, my beloved blog. [Looks blurrily into the distance.] Oh, how things have changed! When once I had no followers, I now have 24 (and some who are too afraid to push the "Follow" button)! When once I had a plain white background, I figured out how to edit my HTML code and I now have popcorn! When once I had no need whatsoever to be a Blog of Note, now it’s my only obsession! Where would I be without my Popcorn Day?!

[While I was popping a small amount of perfect popcorn kernels over the stove, they kept popping all over the place and my dog ate most of them.]

Anyway.  I’m glad you’re reading my blog. Because I like writing it. To many more years! [Raises his bowl of popcorn and dorkily imagines a crowd of people wearing tuxes and dresses also raising theirs. He steps off the podium and the crowd goes wild. Then he crowd surfs as the hired band plays Surfin’ USA and everyone laughs and joyfully cries as they carry him across the room while fireworks shoot somewhere in the distance. Then there’s a sentimental moment when most of them realize, Wow, this blog has really touched me. And it’s been a whole year! And Mr. Google comes and awards him a trophy that says BLOG OF NOTE and a giant check for all the money he’s ever needed. Then Oprah, Barack Obama, and Albus Dumbledore pick him up on their shoulders and crowds via satellite from his hometown, The White House, and Zimbabwe cheer as the song from the Where the Hell is Matt video plays. Confetti. Slow-motion. Shooting stars. And popcorn.]
