Five Thousand Two Hundred Seven

"525,600 minutes, 525,000 moments so dear. 

525,600 minutes - how do you measure, measure a year? 

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee. 

In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife. 

In 525,600 minutes - how do you measure a year in the life? 

How about love? How about love? How about love? 

Measure in love. Seasons of love."    

From Seasons of Love, the musical Rent, Lyrics and music by Jonathan Larson

Five thousand two hundred and seven more readers

five thousand two hundred seven folks who have come

to see this blog and stopped here just for a minute.

I'd like to give each one a great big ole hug.

I'd like to tell each one I covet their time and

hope that they'll come back again next day, and next.

Five thousand two hundred and now there''s extras.

That counter's sure a cool thing to include.

Even if I'm the only one who comes to this site

it counts as another and another and...see?

Five thousand two hundred and so many readers

when does the blog begin paying me back?

At an audition for a musical at the local community theater (Pineapple Playhouse in Fort Pierce, Florida), one young lady sang "Seasons of Love." It's such a clever song, and when I pulled up the blog site and saw that readers had passed 5200, it brought the song to mind.
