Joining the Ranks & Breathing




Apparently this blogging thing is what people do. I didn't realize, but I live a rather limited existence, so I shouldn't be surprised I didn't know. Chicory over at An Accident of Hope inspired me, so perhaps you can blame her when this all goes awry.

I figure since I don't journal for myself, in the privacy of my own bedside book, maybe I'll journal with some sort of narcissistic fantasy that someone else is reading my blather.

Besides, blogging seems like a great way to avoid the ever-present piles of work I should constantly be doing. Procrastination is my icon.

I programmed my cell phone to be a pretty little picture of water with the word "Breathe" appearing above the time and date. Yes, indeedy, my little attempt to remind myself that breathing is necessary, and my typical hyperventilation probably isn't serving my whole self. I usually only see it when I'm frantically trying to find out what time it is, though, and I often ignore that little reminder. *shrug* Nevertheless, it seemed like a good thing to continue reminding myself, hence the name of this blog.

Yay!!! I'm going to link you as soon as you tell me I can. You should go to sitecounter.com and get a free site counter for your site. It's endlessly cool. It'll tell you how many people visit your site, where they're from (city and country) and if they followed a link or did a search to find you and how long they stayed. Hours of procrastination while daydreaming of all the people who have read you! Heck, for some reason I have readers in Australia and Portugal that I'd never know about without the counter.
