Writing in advance.

One thing I've been trying to do is write all my posts well in advance. Now this hasn't increased my post quality as they are all still very much just hashed out whenever I feel like but what it will hopefully do is control my urge to post 3-4 times a day. And give me material for those days when I do not feel like posting.

I don't like the posting 3-4 times in a day because I noticed I get bored of places that update that quickly....doing it once a month is okay but if you post too often then I feel like you did not take much time to think about what you are writing and you want me to just read scribblins.

I really dislike it when I do this and am hoping that by forcing myself to only one post a day I will be improving my writing. I like what I write when I take a lot of time on something but I despise most of the things I hastily bash out.

I have story ideas that I want to write but I'm not quite sure how to make time in my evening for them. Anyone else have this problem? You have multiple things you want to do, and you always seem to end up doing the 'easiest' one? For me this is WOW. I like WoW and I want to level but I often wish I had spent the time drawing or writing or cleaning up my house/garage*.

Time management.....is like eating healthy.... it is very worth it in the long term even if you dislike it in the short.

Well this post should hit Thursday. Today is Monday. We'll see how it goes.

*As of this writing the Garage is 1/2 spotless because Saturday I stopped for an hour....thats all it takes...sigh.

I know what you mean, my tendancy as a new blogger is to put something up on my page and then edit it 20 zillion times. I have to start writing in advance too so I don't do that!

Yeah writing in advance gives a -lot- more time to edit/correct things.

INSANITY. Day 2.

My thoughts on the Plyometric Cardio Circuit? My floor has never looked so appealing. And I never thought I'd be one of the "yellers." In exercise lingo (not another lingo!:) that means you yell when things get hard. Oh bother. Another pun. Anyway, Shaun T's Basketball Drills had me yelling. And grunting as good as those humongo body builders do. And as good as Tim the Tool Man Taylor:) Damm's thoughts were that he didn't push as hard as he could've BUT this time he was standing at the end of the workout. And as soon as he actually sat down he couldn't get back up:) We aren't going to change what we eat yet. We were already ingesting good-for-you foods. According to the caloric needs calculater Damm should be eating around 3,000 calories working out 6 days a week and I should be at 2,400. I'm already at 2,000-2,200 because I'm still the main food source of the Little Man. Not sure where Damm falls on the calorie count. Anyway, not upping ou...

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Pedestels

Me and someone had an interesting conversation yesterday. Prompting this short question post: Who do you put on a pedestel? Who do you look down on? Don't answer either of these please. I don't really want to know. I just did a personal inventory and realized there are an awful lot of people that I either elevate or disparage for reasons that are not really valid reasons. I know there are people I've thought horrible things about who were really just normal regular joes who were smart in other areas but inexperianced in the arena I knew them in. I know there are people I've thought of as amazing self assured genius specimens of physical perfection....who were really insecure, incompetant, losers who wanted more from life. Anways this is just serious thoughts from the Orc.
