200

really...

Published on September 30, 2004 By crimson In Blogging

Kole is simply horse crazy.

I'm not. But luckily, I know a lot of people who are, and who love to watch those first moments of a child when they are introduced to one. I forget the name of this one, but I'm sure that she still remembers. What I do remember is her obvious nervousness before climbing on, and then the absolute look of joy as she rode the horse around the field a couple of times. In the span of 15 minutes, a horse rider was born. Not 15 minutes after that she asked me if we could buy one.

Blog all day

I have unlimited time in front of the computer today. I have no real obligations until 3 pm. I can do anything I want to, but I've been looking forward to taking my time to read and write. Usually, my time spent here at Joeuser involves hurriedly skimming my favorite writers' articles, and producing slap-dash blurtings and ramblings with no real organization and planning. It is to the point right now, where I haven't got the faintest idea of how to produce a 'real' blog article. You know, one that will spawn multiple comments that will send my score rocketing.

Points whore

Speaking of which, if you didn't get it by the title, I'm now able to say that I've written 200 blog entries. I've been a member of the Joeuser community for about 9 months. While a lot of the people I started writing out with have moved on, there is still a great many who have remained as I have. We may not blog with the intense frequency in the past, but we are still here. I've found that there are a lot of new writers that I am becoming familiar with now. I love their writing, the power of their words, and their brilliant imaginations. One of my favorite blogs to visit is Joeuser's community of poets at http://anti-prose.joeuser.com . There is something so delicious, erotic, exciting and inviting about reading these kinds of entries. Take my breath away, someone has said, and it actually happens when I read certain poems by these talented writers. I know that Brad has it set up so that people are invited to become power users/elite users on this site. Most who tend to be politically vocal. I think some of the most powerful writing has been done in the Arts section, or rather, I feel.

Off to satisify another addiction

Even though I am going to be writing and reading tonnes more today, I am off to continue reading my new guilty pleasure. Fanfiction rocks!

Congrats on getting to 200. Looking at my 84 blogs, I have to say, 200 is quite an achievement. I have enjoyed reading your stuff, even if it is "slap-dash". Interestingly, for me, those days when I have a lot of time to sit in front of the computer, read articles and think about what I am going to write, I tend to be less than productive. Odd. I suppose I just work better under a bit of pressure. I look forward to reading what a day like today will bring!

After spending close to six hours online, I was getting a little shaky from all the caffeine and staring at a computer screen. I don't know about the link, Wisefawn... I tried it and it worked, but I'm not all that great when it comes to saving pictures. BlueDev, I basically just bounced around from site to site. I'm all caught up with an online story and it's been fun just to read without having any interruptions. I wasn't very productive either... but that was for the best. Mig, at least I know that it'll only take about another year to do so. I'm sure I'll still be in such great company.
Peace.

I could never put pictures on here until I tried imageuploads.net

Not being productive is often good for the soul.
