Two days ago I hit my 2000th consecutive daily post, so I figured I’d dedicate this edition of Lazy Sunday to celebrating my many numerically arbitrary milestones.

In the sluggish, slothful spirit of Lazy Sunday, I’m being extra lazy—this post largely comes from 26 September 2021’s “Lazy Sunday CXXXII: Milestones,” which I posted the day after reaching 1000 days (in other words, on day 1001).  I’ve made some minor edits for context and added “2000 Days!” to the list, but otherwise I’ve allowed Past Portly to do the talking:

• “101 Postmatians – 101st Consecutive Daily Post!” (and “TBT: 101 Postmatians – 101st Consecutive Daily Post!” – Ah, how quaint—celebrating reaching 101 posts (I apparently forgot to observe the occasion on Day 100).  In looking back at this post, it seems I’d already written some of my best posts, like “Nehemiah and National Renewal” & “Nehemiah Follow-Up”; of course, more goodness was to come.  The TBT version of the post appeared on the 200th day of posts.
• “500” – I can tell from this 500th post that I was stretching a bit.  I did lay out my controversial theory about the “personality” of numbers (I claimed that the number “500” has “charisma, gravitas”).  The 500th day also came two months into The Age of The Virus, not exactly a glory age for liberty.
• “SubscribeStar Saturday: 1000 Days” – The big one thousand.  It’s behind a paywall, but the full post details my plans for the blog going forward, as well as offering some reflections about the last 1000 days.  The post actually landed me a new subscriber, too, at the generous $5 a month tier.  Anyone else interested in rewarding my hard work and initiative—hmmmm?
• “2000 Days!” – Dang, hard to believe I’ve been writing for 2000 (now 2002) days in a row.  We’ve laughed.  We’ve cried.  We’ve projectile vomited.

Thank you again to everyone for supporting the blog as I’ve slogged my way this far.  It is appreciated!

Happy Sunday!
