Readers!

Wow, it's difficult to be chill when reading about my blog statistics!  It's been a long time since I looked into the readership of my blogs, and I had forgotten about all the twists and turns of the statistics page. 

Apparently, though most of my readers are from the USA, (much appreciated, though I don't make any money out of this blog—or these blogs; I have two—I can't be the great influencer that I am (not) without you) a large number of readers are from, of all places, India.  Also Ireland, Kazakhstan, Croatia, and even one lonely soul from Singapore :)

There are a large number of readers, identified as from 'other', so if you don't see your home country noted here, you're not alone.  Wow; that's so heartening ... I used to go by the number of readers on the list of posts; 2 readers for the latest posts.  But the Stats page says there were 10 readers.  Wait a minute; that must be the total of all readers of all my posts, who read the posts in the last two days ...

Most of all, this blog is a place for me to gripe about things that annoy me, since I don't feel right about griping to my friends!  (My friends, I'm sure, think of me as the sunniest person they know.  They have no idea that I gripe to the Web.)

BTW, in other unrelated news, though I don't have a Facebook ID as K Hemlock Brown, I do have Facebook.  With everybody else, I get posts of Instagram videoclips, and the ones I get are usually about ballet.  (Why?  No idea.)

The most recent one is about a chorus of young ballerinas collapsing out of exhaustion as soon as the curtains close!  That was adorable. 

The view of the group was from the rear, and I just realized how much I like the view of little dancers, well, teenagers, with their hair in a knot, and their delicate little ears.  I must have an ear fetish ...
