501

Just realized that this is post #501 in this blog.
500 posts in three years.

The old blog has 200+ posts and also spanned about three years.

So from 2004 until now, in a time of six years, I've written over 700 blog postings about random things, stupid things, pointless things, important things, emotional things, etc.

Frankly, I don't like this blog.  It's a mess.  Half the time (like now) I'm just through down whatever comes to mind.  Totally random.  Totally pointless sometimes.

The old one was much more thought out and (to me) much more meaningful.  But there is/was a specific purpose tied to that blog.  Unless it's for that purpose, I refuse to write there.

(Although...I guess the original purpose of this blog was the same thing...except in a different context.)

I have no idea why I started blogging way back then.  But I guess it has really become a way for me to think out loud and to vent and what not.  (And waste time when I don't want to do my real work?!)  There's so many things in life that I want to remember or think about.  This is the place to do it.

And once again, I've managed to write another useless post....

...Instead of writing my 8-page paper that is due on Friday (i.e. the same day as my last final exam).
