Not to be confused with the mind “bottled” moment from Blades of Glory.

Mind you, we’re my mind bottled, I’m sure it would be with vinegar, spices and herbs to pickle it ever just so.

No, what boggles my mind – still, as I’m fairly sure I’ve mentioned this before – is that this post from 2017 still gets any hits at all. Yet, here we are:

Occasionally, I’ll catch these metrics coming in when there are few enough hits on my blog to figure out where these lil perverts are reading my blog. It’s usually Eastern Europe…which I find strangely hot. More often than not the hit comes from Google, but that also usually garners a search term result like “kinkiest places” or “gayest city” or sometimes just “BDSM”. But alternate search engines, like Baidu, don’t track or report search terms.

All of this is rewarding, regardless of how the click happened, right? Writers just want to be read.

Nonetheless, knowing my little corner of the internet doesn’t come close to hitting the top page of any search result – probably not even if you typed in “Chris Galbreath blog” – or even the first three pages, I have to wonder how far these people scroll in their results before stumbling toward my particular brand of ecstasy…
