I’m noticing a level of focus that blogging will require today.

It’s very easy for me to get distracted with some little project. Having picked up another sponsor (Thank you)

I tried to do some analysis of the Blog List page at the main site. I started doing my typical data analysis work and realized it was time to start writing another post.

There are actually monitors making sure people actually stay with the process today.

The initial field of 566 has already been peeled down to 527.

So it’s going to be an interesting day.

Sadly, when I walk away from a distraction (or find another distraction) it’s very hard to get back to the first distraction.

I think shimmeringjemmy once referred to it as “Running in massive parallel process with leaky thread control”

Geek girls… For the record… Amazingly hot.

Granted I think everyone I subscribe to on LJ is a geek in some measure…

Brains == Hot

(And this is what I am capable of mustering at 7am 😉

Pacing myself…

My average thought out post can sometimes take me upwards of 3-4 hours to write. Usually from delays at work and distractions.

Today I am realizing that I need to pace myself. By the time I’d situated myself and responded to one of the comments to my 6 am post.. I noticed.. it was already 6:15 and I figured I really needed to get onto the next one.

So… I expect there to actually be more substance as I get my timing down.

Granted.. it’s still morning. So right now between the fuzziness of just being awake recently and distractions of DS9 reruns on the Tivo…

I am not sure I have anything of substance just yet.

Good morning, Mr. And Mrs. America and all the ships at Sea.

the local time is current 5:52 am as I write this. I went to bed mildle later than I typically do during the week. So instead of naturally waking at 4am I kind of stumbled hrough my snooze bar at 5, 5:09, and 5:18

It is Blogathon day. I will be writing the posts up until about 2 until the half h\our and hitting submit to try to get them online as close to the half hour as I can.

One amusing note… there are pretty much no people I sociallize with locally who will read any of my posts today.

Between the OTO having a campout and OLO hosting Fires of Lughnasadh many of my local readers are away.

So I expect record low comments and record high self involvement..
