My small yet jubliarian event

Dictionary.com gave me a rather appropriate word today, as I actually have a small accomplishment to celebrate.


jubilarian
\ joo-buh-LAIR-ee-uhn \  , noun;
1. A person who celebrates or has celebrated a jubilee, as a nun observing 25 or more years of religious life.
 
I'm normally not one of those people who comments on YouTube a lot.  Actually, most of my online socialization takes place on Facebook and Twitter.  However, as previously mentioned in a post, I am obsessed with The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and today I finally mustered up the courage to comment on one of the videos.  I didn't, by the way, use the WoD in my comment, but it does describe how I felt a few hours after my post.
 
I'll post the link below, no guarantees that it will always be the top comment, but it's in an episode that uses a very profound word: verisimilitude.  For all of you good-looking guys out there, I'm a sucker for a good vocabulary.  No joke, when the character Darcy does his little speech in the middle (you'll watch it, I know you will) I swoon just a little bit.  Anyway, my comment was this, "Verisimilitude: BOOM!  Pregnant!" and after a few hours, it was the top comment on the video!  TOP COMMENT! 
 
It was the first comment I've ever made on YouTube and it's top dog!  Kinda.  Anyway, later that day I told Ashley and said, "I'm as happy as a jubilarian!"
 
And I still am.  I hope to GOD that the guy who plays Darcy (Daniel Vincent Gorhd) reads that comment.  And then finds my blog.  And then finds me.  And we can have profoundly deep vocabulary discussions together.  Or something fun...
