1000th check-in on Yelp!

Wow I can't believe I got over 1000 check-ins on Yelp. Is there a badge for that? I guess not because it by me with little fan fare. Alas, while the check-ins still pile on my reviews of course are lagging :(.

At the time I started writing this post I do not have any friends on my Yelp list. I do not know how big a deal that is to Yelp but to me it really does not matter. I will eventually get some but I am not going to be pushy about it. I sorta like focusing on the check-ins since I am always on the go. Hence, the name of this blog, Drive-by Eater: The Foodie On The Go! Not all of my check-ins are for take outs, dine-ins, or grocery shopping. I actually find time to go to a park, an apartment complex or drop some kids off to school. Hey it's my life and the totality of the drive-by eater. So reaching this 1000th check-in plateau was not a big task for me to accomplish.

Hopefully, I can reach another thousand check-ins within the 2-year time or less it took me to get to the first thousandth. And I am sure there are other 1000; 10,000 and beyond check-inners out there in Yelp land. Is there a club for this? Oh yeah the Elite club :). Well I am not trying to be an elist just yet. I still have to get my reviews down pack. At least some quality reviews.

Ok enough of my babbling. Time to go get more check-ins!

Yelp! Tree hugger badge

If you did not know I am a Yelper. I have just received the tree hugger badge. I did not even realize I was approaching the requirements for that award. So thanks, Yelp. To receive this badge of honor I had check-ins at 3 "parks". Apparently it does not matter if it is a ball park such as a baseball stadium or a park that has playgrounds and picnic tables and trees and...well you get the picture. These check-in were days apart and the parks were in the same city but miles away from each other if that makes a difference.

Still here

I am still learning the blog sphere. I got side tracked with some other things I have going on like eBay :). I am currently trying to get rid of so much clutter and old items I have owned for many years since childhood. So that has been taking up my time from blogging and writing my reviews of some places I have been lately. Especially the bad ones blah!
