It seems longer
This month marks my 13th year writing this blog.
You can see the history to the right. Click on "Archives" to see them. I cannot. It is history.
At one time I figured I would give myself a history of things but that has changed.
I do it now for a few people who read the blog, it is easier than sending emails all the time, and for me. I still do not go back and read much of it. But it provides a sense of self in a world where this is a bit scarce.
Self. I quit work work in 1979. Went off the road and quit the business.
So work and the business no longer define me.
I used to kind of hang out in my old place's web site but the company got a new management and I lost interest. I do not look in any more.
And little by little my business persona has all but disappeared.
I am still in touch with an old business partner on a very occasional basis. And one special wonderful client friend and I are still together. A blessing.
There is my family of course and, it turns out, the blog has not replaced letters "home". I still send email updates. Especially for the kind of things I would not put in the blog.
There are some interesting stats though.
I have made 11536 postings.
Holy shit.
There have been 110,968 viewings. So ten times the number of posts. Ten readers each post. Including me. I do not think that I read each post ten times. So, someone do the math. Or not.
Not a big universe.
But I am writing for me
So it has been a long time project for me. I am usually done with stuff well before this.
I did give the blog up for about 4 months once then re-instituted it. I wrote to everyone I knew to let them know it was back. A burp.
So. I will continue. A day at a time.
