Hit 100 rolls developed this weekend and spilled fixer all over my kitchen table

I counted up my negatives last night while organizing my binder. 100 rolls since I started developing at home two years ago. The milestone came during a really messy session where I knocked over a bottle of fixer and it went everywhere. Smelled like rotten eggs for hours. But honestly that smell kind of makes it feel official now. Has anyone else hit a random number that just hit different?

Are you keeping the stained table as a trophy or did you scrub it off? I ruined a good towel on my 50th roll when I forgot to close the stop bath. Learned my lesson that day but the towel still sits in my darkroom as a reminder.

Is it really that deep though? A stained kitchen table and a smelly towel don't exactly make you a darkroom legend or anything, @joseph448. I've spilled fixer twice and honestly just wiped it up with paper towels, no big deal.
