Call Me a Digital Wench

It is a sad thing, but I crave the approval of my peers. It may even be true that I find identity in the popularity of my creativity. The more comments I get on a blog post, for instance, the easier and more contentedly I sleep at night. Sick, huh? I think it's a disease. I call it epopaholism.


Being an epopaholic, I thrive off of digital accolades. They spur me on toward more creative and time-consuming blog-art. Keep that in mind, faithful readers. Even if it means writing a 20 word comment in 20 one-word increments, I pine for the times when I load up that page, to see a nice big two- or three-digit number next to the word "comments."

wooooo! this is a really long comment! yay! i love blogging. bloggin is AWESOME. especially when it's by ryan mock. HIS blogs are the BEST. mostly because they're from oklahoma, but also because he is, in fact, a digital wench. what is a digital wench, one might query? wikipedia has no suggestions so therefore, it must not exist, meaning that ryan mock is neither a digital wench NOR does he exist. so, in fact, this entire comment only exists inside the realms of your imagination.

there. i'm done.

Jenny said...

Did you have to photoshop those words on the bum's sign or was it already like that?

Jenny said...

I crave the approval of my peers too.

Jenny said...

I'd like to think I thrive off digital accolades like yourself, but I don't know much about them.

Jenny said...

Which is why I read your blog!

Jenny said...

I mean, I don't even have an ipod! How behind the times can I get???

Jenny said...

Next thing you know I'll be using a VHS recorder to record shows.

Jenny said...

Oh wait! I already do that!

Jenny said...

Now you have a 2-digit amount of comments, friend!

Ryan said...
