Whoa.
Today, being the first day of SAHDness 2007, I got curious and went to check out this blog's stats.
Two surprising facts:
1- I have 18 readers from the UK. Successful lurkers to a person. In 25 months and 720something posts, they have managed to stay utterly silent.
2- I have a reader from Iran. As in, yeah, THAT Iran. If I am in some way responsible for these guys overthrowing their gummint, then cool. Fortunately I have posted no sensitive materials, unless excellent recipes can be used as means of global conquest.
One non-surprising fact:
Australia leads the world in the least lurky readers. Fully 80% of the Australian readers comment, a feat unmatched by any other nation. In fact, no other nation even approaches the possibility of perhaps coming even remotely close.

OT, started the melatonin tonight. Might start it on the seven-year old if she doesn't go the heck to sleep.
(a phrase I would never utter out loud, by the way: it seemed apt)

I know, because I speak for them.

I confess: I'm a stats freak. Scroll down to the bottom of my page, I have about five down there including a very pretty one that makes petals grow and drop off to match the page count...

We rule.
I rarely look at my stats either, although I do know the UK is tight-lipped in the commenting region.
They stare at me too, but don't utter a word. Do you think they are agog with blog-envy ?
I do.
I'll have to ask sociologists why this is so.
