Ah, just answered this on rasfc, but it seems to me you can start the thing with a future date, say 10 years from now, and work your way backward date-wise to now. LJ allows for backdating. That's how I did the sticky post with the counter and other fun stuff til I figured out how to get all that into the sidebar. Then I deleted the entry, which I'd dated 12/31/2010.
