“I Don’t Like Mondays”
Er, so I thought I’m in the mood for a blog entry. Then the IM popped up, and I’m over the feeling of writing here. Yup, 10 mins on the IM is all it took. Guess it’ll be one of those low attention span days. 18th in a row. Go figure.
I’ve finally got used to the early Wednesday mornings. I even managed to crash ‘early’ last night, at about 1:30. That’s four and a half hours of sleep, almost two more than I tend to get on these days. Still, as usual I didn’t rest well. I wake up half an hour early or so, thinking I must have missed the alarm clocks (yes, plural). Of course I haven’t, but knowing there is only half an hour left, I don’t really get any more rest. Now I know most people have to get up early five days a week, but I’m not most people. My normal sleeping hours are from 4:00 to 10:00. One of the perks of having your home be your office and HQ.
In case you haven’t noticed, it’s Valentines Day. I can almost hear the little promo voice in the background remind the world that “This day is brought to you by Hallmark.” Having cleared the air in regard to my stance on the issue, I’ve already exceeded the amount of space I wish to dedicate to the subject.
I’m already a bit behind on reaching my forum goals of getting an average 400 quality posts per day by 2008. I have to remind myself that this is a long haul thing which will snowball with time, and that consistent moderate efforts are a hundred times better than random, intense efforts.
On a side note, Google doesn’t like the forums once again, but I have a suspicion that this time it’s a result of too many new inbound links in a short period of time. If so, things should sort themselves out soon, with higher rankings to boot. To be honest, these days I don’t care that much for Google and their sporadic rankings. Site traffic is increasing at a healthy pace without their help. :)
