Someone posted about their project of posting every day for a year, and was wondering whether to keep going into next year.

Back in January, I wasn't planning to post daily. And then we got to pandemic lockdown, and I was trying to post every day as a way of keeping a grip on time and not let everything turn into Blursday then eleventy-third of March. That slipped away in the summer, and then I went back to trying to post most days, even if not much happens, as part of an effort to believe that yes, time is passing.

I am counting anything I post publicly here, definitely including links to news articles, and signal boosting other people's posts. Somewhere in the pinned post at the top of this journal, it says that this Dreamwidth journal/blog is partly a substitute for a paper journal. And maybe in a couple of years I'll want that soup recipe, or that reminder that I wrote to my state senator, or just evidence that I did something other than eat and sleep and comb the cat this month.

Good plan!

I'm feeling the blursday recently so it's neat to have the reminder that posts can be small and off-the-cuff and not always Big Ideas.
