Back On My Feet

Well, I knew I probably wouldn't be able to keep it going very long – this posting everyday, that is. Missed yesterday. So it's probably just as well I didn't sign up officially with NaBloPoMo. Don't have any excuses – just laziness, really.

Not that I would have had that much to write about, even if I weren't so bone lazy. But I did get out of the apartment yesterday, for the first time since wrenching my knee a couple of weeks ago. Which was great – I was beginning to feel like the recluse brother on Monk. Had to be very careful about where I put my feet, and almost had a set-back after tussling with the front door, coming back into our building. But I made it OK, and without a cane, too. So I'm feeling pretty much like a normal human being again.

Now if the Cowboys just hadn't lost that *%$#^&* game last night, things would be looking really peachy!

Just What You've Been Waiting For!

A Blather a Day.

I just found an interesting phenomenon called NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month), which basically seems to be a bunch of people dedicated to posting a blog entry every day, for a month. You join up for a month at a time, any month of the year apparently. And you don't have to join on the first of the month – their FAQs say you can join anytime. I know this is probably old news to everybody else – I'm always the last to find new stuff in the blogosphere.

I've been toying with the idea of trying a daily post on Joysweb. I doubt that I could keep it going for a whole month. So I'm not signing up with NaBloPoMo. I can hear the blogging community breathing a collective sigh of relief.

But I do like the idea of the self-discipline a regular posting schedule would involve. And it would certainly be one more weapon in the fight against the dreaded LAN syndrome (Long Afternoon Nap).

I'm wondering how many other bloggers manage to post everyday? Do you? Do you blog at a certain time everyday? Do you have set subjects for different days? Or do you just pick a topic out of the air when you sit down at your computer?

Well, I think I'll just give it a go this next week, and see what happens. Then, maybe the rest of the month will follow. See – I've already posted twice today! Now just twenty-seven (twenty-seven!!!) more posts to go.
