Last week, my 1-year Blogoversary came and went. I was too busy to even notice! My very first post was July 23, 2009! Since then I've written almost 200! I can't believe it's been a whole year. I have to say, I've loved it, and boy, Poodleism has changed. I wish I had a pic of throwback Poodleism. It has come a really long way. For some of you new readers, here are some of my oldies but goodies. I love these vintage posts:

• My very first post (meet the Prince and Manfriend)
• My thumbsdown to women's magazines (I got lots of unexpected compliments here)
• Space is a total mindF. (a recurring theme)
• The very first Friday Newsflash 
• Total Needle Domination (personal struggle that I totally made my B)
• All About Me (just for the sake of getting acquainted)
• Katy Perry is my Hero (mostly because it's my most frequently visited post)

In the interest of taking a closer look at the 411 on the blog, I implemented some statistics and found some VERY interesting things....in the all-time history of Poodleism, here's where the readers are:


OMG. OMG. O-M-G. The "all over the world"-ness of you readers has absolutely blown my mind apart. This sort of ups the ante for me on the post quality. I'd hate to let down my international audience. If you're in a part of the world far, far away, please introduce yourself to me (via comments). Im absolutely DYING to know who you are! (Luxembourg, you're ranked bizarrely high, please explain...) To all you American readers, I love you TONS, but you don't baffle me nearly as much.

So, since we're celebrating, thanks so much followers!!! (And if you're reading this but not following, I'm giving you a sideways and skeptical look) Thanks for checking me out. Thanks for validating my nuttiness. Thanks for the comments. Just thanks. I'm open to thoughts/concerns/questions/praise...please tell me!

Thanks again and Happy Blogoversary!
