My little blog doesn’t get much traffic. I’m okay with that. Sorta. I do check my stats and like to see how many views I get. My goal is to get 10 views a day – by someone other than me and lately I’ve been reaching my goal fairly consistently. So yay for me.
As I mentioned though, I do look at my stats on a regular, kind of freakishly, possibly slightly OCD basis. So, I notice things. Like when my highest view for a single day reaches 166. About 99.99999% of the time I don’t even reach 100 so I not only notice the number but there might be a small dance that goes with it. Perhaps a song.
That’s not important. The important thing is I notice when it peaks.
I hit 167 views one day. But then WordPress took a view away. I’m not sure why. Maybe the WordPress powers that be were punishing me. I wrote about it in a post called, “What the Hey?!”
Sometime after I wrote the post in November, I received my view back. I was back at 167 for a single day of viewing. The world was right and good again. I trusted in life. If life really were a musical this would be the time of the life affirming song. It would get everyone clapping and on their feet for sure. You can read about my victory in “How Many Views?”
However, a month or so ago I must have been naughty again. Apparently, I ticked off the powers that be. Again.
They took a view away. Again. The day in question is over a year ago. How is that even possible?

Maybe the view was close to midnight and it depends on what time zone they’re currently operating in or switches when daylight savings time switches. Something like that? 167 in one day is pretty good 🙂 just know in your mind that’s what it is.
Ahhh. That still seems kinda silly to me but it at least explains the disappearing/reappearing view. I’ll watch for it after Daylight Savings Time begins next month and see. Thanks!
