300?? WHAT?? WHEN??? WHERE DID YOU COME FROM??

I'm so happy. I was offline — there was still a day before the wedding and I was about to leave. And you guys did this while I wasn't even looking.

Also, for the record: there are so many cockroaches here. I found three in the bathtub. One in my bed. I saw one on the floor and killed it together with my little brother. This isn't even the worst of it — at my grandmother's house there's a family of mice living under the bed.

And while I'm living in these conditions, we also had relatives who died, and I attended the funeral.

So yeah. It's been a week.

But then I came back online and saw 300.

And I just sat there for a minute. Because I don't think you understand what that means to me. I've been making these bots for a while now, mostly because I love it, mostly because I didn't think anyone would care. And then I come back from a week of cockroaches and funerals and bad internet, and there are 300 of you.

300 people who decided I was worth following. 300 people who comment and joke with me and call me twin and tell me to rest. 300 people who are patient when I'm late and kind when I'm messy.

I don't have a celebration bot ready. I'm sorry. I'd rather make you something good than something fast. But I wanted to say this properly, before anything else: thank you. From the bottom of my heart. You have no idea how much you've helped me this week.

I'm glad you're here. All 300 of you.

PS — the Halloween bot is still coming. I haven't forgotten. Thank you for being patient with me.
