all good things must come to an end
is this blog one of them?
i don't know.
when i first started, i wasn't sure what i thought. i was worried that writting would be cheepened by putting it in this form. i was worried that i'd write less or that the quality of my writting would slip.
and, my friends, i'd say all of the above has happened.
i gave it a shot.
and maybe now i'm done.
i hardly even have it in me to continue the POTD.
weird, how many things suddenly seem less important. writing, blogging, walking, driving, bathing. i don't do those things anymore. oh well.

sometimes, things that you have been doing for quite some time will make no sense at all.
weird, isn`t it.

Well, you are still recovering from surgery. I say let it rest and maybe you will change your mind. I love reading about your life since I'm so far away.

thanks, A. that's good to hear.
we'll see. i'm not giving up all together. i think i'm just letting myself off the hook. like, letting go of any expectations that i do any certain amount or quality of blogging.

I haven't done MM since January. But after a break, I'm wanting it to be part of my life again.
Sometimes it's good to lower your standards. Maybe you could have a picture of the week, if that made you feel more relaxed.
If you feel like continuing, then continue. Don't let if feel like a school assignment.

It doesn't have to be on or off. You could try blogging when you want to blog, not blogging when you don't want to blog. Then it'll be a nice treat when there's something here to read or look at, and you won't have to feel like you're just checking something off your "to do" list.

i think i want to keep doing the POTD. just because... you know me... i like to KEEP doing things like that. and the plan was to do all of 2005. and i haven't missed one single day yet. (except jan 1st, which i kind of cheated on. i didn't decide to do POTD until jan 2nd, and at that point it was a little too late to take a P on the 1st, so i used one taken around 10:30pm on dec 31st. how is it that NONE of us present at that new year's celebration happened to take any pictures after midnight? um... yeah... i think i can guess.) so, i want to finish the year. but i think i'll let go of the writing, until i feel like it again. we'll see, maybe tomorrow i'll feel like it!
