Eight million

A couple months, I looked at my blog stats, did a little mental math and came to the conclusion that this space would likely get its eight millionth pageview sometime during the first week of NaMoPaiMo.

"Perfect," I thought. "That is perfect."

Then, Olive died.

Overnight, my pageviews went through the roof.
Tragedy sells.
This morning, I realized today was going to be the day.
I put off errands until the counter ticked over.
This was the fastest million pageviews this blog has received so far, coming less than a year and a half after the last big milestone.
How long will it take to get to nine million? Not going to lie, I'm hoping for a lot less tragedy and, perhaps, a lot less pageviews. Only time will tell.

  6. Some of those page views are from me rereading to let it sink in, or to see new comments. I do wish you a much more peaceful year ahead!
