Post a Day Update...

[savageseraph]

Wow!!! I just noticed on the wee calendar on my LJ, that I've started the fourth week of posting each day. I'm still feeling the satisfaction of watching the little numbers grey out as each new post gets added. I'm also liking waking up in the morning, opening up my email on my iPhone, and seeing comments. It's a nice start to the day and makes me happy at a time when I'm really just wishing I could go back to sleep.

Oddly enough, when I was talking to caras_galadhon the other night, she mentioned something I'd just noticed, which is that sometimes I'm posting more than once a day. Sometimes it's because I have more to say. Sometimes it's to break up posts by subjects. She asked if it was to get ahead, build up a bit of a cushion for when I do miss a day so that I'll still end the year with at least 365 posts. I don't think it's that. I think I'll still feel bad if I miss a day, even with extra posts on some other days.

I have a confession. I didn't think I'd make it this long without missing a day. I mean before I'd think, "I have no time. I'm too tired. I'll get around to it tomorrow. Maybe post more then." Excuses for my passive behavior of reading my flist but not really participating. We all know that more people read posts than comment on them, but I know I like knowing when someone leaves a comment. I owe that to others as well. Now that I am posting more, I'm finding that I'm also tending to comment more, and keeping up with and talking to y'all makes me happy.

And yes. I am thinking, "If I keep posting, I have a legitimate reason for not going to the grocery store." I suppose I should put on some pants and go ahead and do that.

Come on, get moving. Groceries shopping.
Oh, I love to be your motivator. I wished I had someone to do this to me as well.
I always thought it to be an Aries thing that feeling of “I can’t be bovvered!"

Hee. Well, Sagittarius is also a fire sign, so maybe it's a sign that we're fizzling instead of burning when we do that? ^_^

Quite possible.
