Actually, the real reason I'm doing a double it because I wanted to tell my roommate about this, and lately I've been starting all my sentences with "I'm going to blog about it, but ...", which probably doesn't make it as exciting for her... and I'm pretty sure she makes up about 50% of my readership right now. I couldn't wait until tomorrow.
One thing you should know about me: I'm a member of the Google cult. I'm like one of those people who goes door-to-door. So, I just DISCOVERED Google reader.
A-MAZ-ING. Makes it super easy to keep track of blogs, news etc. Its comparable to 'visual' bookmarks. You can add all the blogs you read there, rss feeds, etc. It lets you know how many new entries there have been since you last read (you know you're crushed a little when you keep checking a blog and it hasn't been updated). They have a blog too. Check it out!

Hey, I'm a reader, too. And I was just noticing how you've been bumped to the top of my blog checklist - because I know you'll have something new and interesting to read. I was just thinking that it must be hard to keep it up as much as you have.
I'm supposed to do push-ups tonight. I'm really not in the mood.
Add my admiration for hitting the two week mark. Is daily publishing hard? I've been thinking about those pushups and I started with the girly kind last night. I have some weights I carried to Maine too, have to lug those out next. and Google jobs in NY!! How great is that.
