100th Blog - Come Revel in the Disinterest!

100posts

So it appears I've reached 100 blog posts and although normally I guess this might be kind of awesome, to be truthful I feel kind of embarassed as I've had tons of ideas and desires to post so many things over the years that I just gave up on or put off until it was far too late to be particularly relevent. But here I find myself and other than celebrating Louise Brooks' birthday by having a mini-marathon of her movies I guess it's nice to have a decent amount of work behind you even if it took a while to get there. Most immediate ideas as to what to do to celebrate this minor milestone seemed rather long (even by my standards) and unwieldy and so just for s**** and giggles I'll do one of those 100 question thingies since I usually ignore them when they're spammed my way.
