300 posts!

Today I have reached a landmark - for me, at least. This is the 300th post on my blog. Since I first started blogging, I have learned a few things. For one, that is is difficult for me to keep up with daily blogging. As much as I wish I could do a daily blog here, I have a number of other sites that I post regularly to, and sometimes priorities get a little shifted. One other thing that I have learned is that blogging is work. It is fun, but it is still hard work and it is not always easy to come up with ideas for posting. Even when I visit blogging prompt sites for ideas, I still sometimes draw a blank, or don't feel any inclination to write about some of the random topics suggested.

Looking back at my original posts, I'm still as bitchy as ever, although I occasionally throw in some sap, some pap, and if you're lucky - some rap. My only regret at this point was not setting up my own domain name for this blog. If I was to try and move things now, I would likely lose my pagerank and have to start all over again. I would lose my standing with paid blogging, as well. I have grown accustomed to using the Blogger interface, though, and don't really see programs like WordPress offering that much more value for me right now (although trackbacks don't seem to work here on Blogger).

Perhaps one of these days, I will have time to play around with my template a little more, to get more of a customized look for this blog. Until then, I'm just struggling to keep up with my daily posts.
