Glitch or Not

Am I that good?

Some records cannot be broken and getting over 1000 views in less than 24 hours is one of them. It would be closer to the truth if I said 1000 views in less than two hours (no more help please). Before I went to work on June 4th I checked my views. My journal "Less than 24 Hours" was at 27. Almost 2 hours and 975 views later I was at 1002, seriously 1002.

At first I thought it was a glitch until I checked again a little bit later and the entry was at 1004. I discussed this with a few of my coworkers and one in particular thinks one reader was overly eager to open the journal and read it apparently becoming frustrated that it didn't open and kept clicking on it until it did. That's more clicks than a quarter arcade junkie playing Asteroids for the first time.

I am a bit more skeptical. Do I think one person did this? Sure I do, but I cannot fathom why. Was it malicious or in good fun? I prefer thinking that it was the latter. At the moment it looks like the post has been read over 1100 times. This journal will help if I make it part of a portfolio (unless they are reading this one now). I prefer to know people are reading my stuff because they like to and the view count shows that people are at least looking at it.

I believe there is no way "Less than 24 hours" reached over 1000 views in this time allotted especially by regular means. I tend to get about two responses every journal; I wish that number was more. The only response I received so far was a question along the lines of ?how did he get so many views??If I have to keep track as I like to do I think I'm just going to subtract 975 from the total count.

I've been writing more and more to the point I am feeling stressed out. Am I writing what people want to read; is it interesting; is it grammatically correct? I like to keep what I write on the registry separate from Comicbooked.com and my blog (which I have neglected). The other site though does not allow me to see how many people are reading my articles, and my blog, well I hope to change that. The registry counts my views and I feel proud when I accomplish something, like a journal reaching over 100 views in less than 24 hours. Just recently ?My letter to CGC? accomplished this as well unless of course it was all a glitch.

Thanks for reading or should I say thanks for adding to my views
