1st off, i didn't think i'd be able to sustain it for this long. i've never kept a journal or diary for more than three days, yet somehow i've posted something on here (almost) every day and when i don't post, i almost feel guilty. i think it's knowing that there are other people out there who read what i'm writing (no matter how inane or random or pointless it may be). i guess i'm one of those people who "need" an audience or at least knowing that somebody's listening.
speaking of those other people...
i find it truly interesting when i look a the little map thing on my sidebar and see that people in South Africa and China and Iceland have looked at my blog. i'm sure, in most cases, there's a language barrier but if there's a guy in Borneo who can read what i'm writing, and somehow it makes him nod and smile and say (in a Borneo-ese accent) "I hate Nascar, too!" or "I feel the same way" then all i can say is WOW. y'know? on a more local level, i totally expected that my friends would read what i was writing, but i never thought anyone else, perfect strangers in other states, would find what i write interesting enough to comment on and then come back later to see what else i've written.
it's just funny, y'know?

what gross pandering for commentation, you desperate little blog whore! hehehehehehe. I'll keep coming back if you keep writing!
a) i am a blog whore.
b) i really am surprised when people comment AND THEN come back!
c) i'm even MORE surprised i have never gotten any "hate" comments.
Ditto...especially (c).There are some days I would welcome the fight.
