Yesterday was my best day for views ever on WordPress. I crossed the 100 view, 59 visitors per hour barrier. How the heck did that happen? Why do so many people suddenly want to see my goofiness in blog form? Have I suddenly realized my dream of attracting readers to my words and wit and artwork? I think not. No one post brought this on. I did not have any sudden aha! moment of perfect post creation. I posted a post yesterday about lying based on my love/hate relationship with politics. I posted before that about my Paffooney creating process and my psychotic collecto-mania as it intersects that fantastic life in plastic of Barbie. None of that should have generated so much interest. And most of the posts viewed, over a hundred of them, were single-viewer hits on separate posts. So I now have a conspiracy theory of my own to pursue. Are the Illuminati or the Freemasons trying to lead me down dark paths of misinformation? Are aliens suddenly becoming aware of the story told in Catch a Falling Star? Cool! But probably not the answer. The only factor I could seize on that might explain this anomaly is the fact that somebody re-posted my Barbie Shelf post.
The Militant Negro (://theobamacrat.com/) The Militant Negro, a progressive political site with keen insights and a lot of followers re-posted my foofoo post about collecting Barbie dolls. I haven’t been brave enough yet to ask why. Maybe I should’ve kept it all more of a secret. Maybe they are all examining my posts now for evidence of dementia or possible lunatic plans to take over the world through manipulative toys… or maybe my paranoia. But for some reason, I must’ve sparked curiosity in a part of the blog-world where I never suspected it would be.
Hopefully I haven’t shot myself in the foot with this post which includes bare butts and butterflies. Oh, no!
Catch a Falling Star 
Don´t sweat it, with all the changes wordpress is doing I can´t even get into my statistics page. But I´m still having fun writing some nutty thing and posting and then commenting.
I was actually thinking the 124-view thing was pretty good, and it would be nice to know how I did it. But it does take some of the fun out of it to not be surprised by such stuff.
