Anyone else think it’s ironic that **Topaz** claims to be in Nirvana, but her listed location is Personal Hell, NY? Congrats, anyway, **Topaz**. 🙂 ---

Maybe I should see a specialist. \*\* Just keep workin’ on it and don’t try to force things. You’ll keep getting closer and closer to it, a little closer each time without any conscious effort on your part. Relax, and one of these nights _UMMmmm_ 😃 😃 😃 ! It will happen for you. 😉 ---

I’m on the 10-year plan when it comes to post-count. Cheers, Topaz! ---

Hmm, interesting. My 100th and 200th posts passed completely unnoticed on my part 🙂 🙂 ---

I noticed 100, and then never looked again until 263 or something like that. . .and then the posting came to a screeching halt again for no apparent reason. It’s like a freaking menstrual cycle for posting. ---

I suddenly wish I hadn’t just posted that last remark. Not quite up to **SPOOFE** and toothpaste standards, but I’ll regret that later. . .especially being a guy. ---

Okay **Tom~** let’s see how long that 10,000 will stay there. Remember how the folks used to play the “quiet game”…😉 BTW I heard somebody talking about you at IMHO. and my 1000th went by and I didn’t even notice 'til somebody mentioned it. Congrats **Topaz** I suppose you’re buying us all a drink, huh? ---

\ Thanks **John** , I feel much better just talking about it. I just have to say to myself, “It _will_ happen, it _will happen_.” And **Topaz** , what will you do when you reach 10,000? Throw a ticker-tape parade? If so, can I have my own float? ---

I wonder where I’d be at now if I hadn’t had to reregister after the Big Crash? For that matter, I wonder where I am now? I never think to even look. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-have-achieved-sdmb-nirvana/177478.md?page=1)
