OneAndOneIs2

But in a fit of boredom, I started following links to other blogs from comments on some of the blogs I read, and an uncanny number of them have a latest post saying it's their blog-birthday. (A strangely-high proportion of the others has a latest post on the subject of which way round toilet rolls should go. Don't ask me why)

One of them was the Iceland Weather Report, which I've encountered a few other times. In her first point, Alda mentions that she gets very few comments. As bad as two per three hundred visits, sometimes!

Well, yesterday I had 1378 hits. And three comments.

Some people don't know when they're well-off!

It's an "apples and oranges" comparison, of course - I don't really write to be entertaining or to tell people about my life, so I don't get the same level of comments as people who do. Mind you, when I stop and think about it, I'm not really sure how to categorize what I *do* write about - beyond the simple definition of "whatever the Hell I want to, really" that is.

I do sometimes wonder, tho, just how many regular readers I have. Posts like the defrag one are all very gratifying with their hundreds of comments, but they make it hard to tell how many readers I have because many (most?) of my hits are from people coming to one specific post, not readers of the blog.

I did have a point when I started this post, but I'm no longer sure what it was.

I made a start one one of my (many, many) assignments for university today - I managed one paragraph and two references before I'd had enough. But it's a start, so I feel mildly virtuous about that.

And I finished unpacking, so I have found some of the important parts of paperwork I was looking for, as well as my hair conditioner. I also found my laptop's WiFi PCMCIA card, which is good, but it doesn't seem to work on my new home's wifi router, I have no idea why. So I'm having to use my borrowed Windows laptop or trail a cable across the flat to get online.

If you're wondering why I'm not writing so many blog posts at the moment, I'm hoping you'll now understand the reason for it
