500 FOLLOWERS! RESTEEM FOR SBD IN CELEBRATION!

I've finally done it! I've hit 500 followers, and, more importantly, I did it without following a single person.

I see these posts pop up all the time, and when you look at the poster's profile you see they've followed 5000 people. It's trivially easy to get 500 followers when you follow everyone on steemit.

I've done it the hard way. I've done it by constantly staying on top of my profile, posting every. single. day. Constantly searching for the best content, as well as occasionally creating my own. I've done it the hard way because I care about my followers. I spend every night writing comments on every. single. one. of my followers posts. Many of you reading this know this already. I care about you all, and I think you all recognize that and I thank you all for allowing me a glimpse into your life.

I'd like to thank all of my regular commenters and voters, in particular Hive account@fitinfun Hive account@coininstant Hive account@longshot Hive account@pandorasbox Hive account@bigbear Hive account@woodywood143 Hive account@patricksanlin Hive account@honusurf Hive account@kdtkaren Hive account@sunscape Hive account@thethreehugs Hive account@taskmaster4450 Hive account@saffisara. I'm sure I'm forgetting names, and I apologize if that's the case. I may not always respond to your comments, but I appreciate you coming back.

Finally, I will give 1 SBD to everyone who resteems this post in order to celebrate the occasion! I may not have the SBD to pay you right now, but I promise you, you will eventually receive your SBD (as you can see I've been saving up SBD for some time now for this occasion). Just leave a comment here that you resteemed, and after I've verified it on your feed, I'll add your user name to my list of IOUs!

It's been a fantastic journey thus far! Here's to the next 500!
