A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song. ~Maya Angelou

The whole day was devoted to gaming. I was at another's home, and although I am positive his computer is open to me, I never seperated myself from the gaming (multi-link X-box playing) long enough to do anything but go to the bathroom or take a smoke break. Or eat. I know, I know... where do my priorites lie.

As the time drew closer to midnight, my last chance to update for Saturday, I grew more anxious. So far, I've been able to post everyday, sometimes via endangering my job or through shear ingenuity (if I may say so myself).

So, as the last minutes to update came closer I had to make a decision. To continue to post everyday (most of the time easily, and sometimes by rushing and reworking schedules) or to begin introducing a moderate journaling and thereby cutting myself off this obsessive cycle. (To back track a bit, my original plan was to type everyday, for at least 21 days so that I could make this part of my routine. I succeeded beyound my wildest dreams, I love it. I'm a journaler by nature.)

As you guessed it, I decided on the later. I will most probably update everyday, but hopefully with my first none entry I will lose some of that urgency.
