In spite of how little I've been posting to this lately based on how busy I\'ve been, I managed to somehow reach a realization ( Read more... )

For me, it's a historian thing. I've always had this weird obsession that I'd forget something important, or that someday I'd want to look back and know something and it wouldn't be there. Which is a fairly strange obsession for a ten-year-old to have, when you think about it. (Past lives, anyone?)

I start getting twitchy if I don't write things down. Sometimes I wind up doing a "week in review" sort of thing, but only if there really hasn't been anything worth writing.

Maybe it would help to set yourself a reminder on your computer so it dings and you then journal for like twenty minutes or something?

How do I keep up with my journal. Lets see..... That would be badly.

I was posting to a home cooked journal that I'm sure no one knew existed, and it requires me to upload the entire website each time I would make an entry. (A very annoying part of what is otherwise a nice piece of software.) The whole point of the journal for me is to let other people know I'm still breathing. When I don't get any response, I'll start thinking no one cares and withdrawal back into obscurity again. Silly cycle.

So, I have been re-formatting the LJ for inclusion into the website and start leaving entries here again. If I can stop my current obsession with Second Life long enough to finish, that is. ;)

Actually... I don't. I do it when I think of it. Which usually means when things are decent.

Somedays I just write these entries like I want to remember the day so vividly. Then I get into a rut where I just can't write. Like, stuff happens but I just don't want to write about it.

yeah, despite my writer tag..I suck at keeping up with my journaling. mostly, I use LJ to keep tabs on my pals I never see, and those out of state..

so yeah..speaking of keeping tabs..
