4000.......

ok, so it seems that my last post was number 4000 and it should surprise nobody to learn that i often skim the text rather than scrutenize the details of everything i read...even of the blog count......and so.....does the 4001st blog seem any different that the first or the 1567th?.....after the volume-related smugness wore off i became overwhelmed at the missed opportunity of it all.....i have put more words to ...well.....not paper....but put them where they could be downloaded to paper if i had the time.....i have written more words than are in war and peace......and this is all is all i have to show for it...yes, i have kept to my mission...to record my life as i choose to remember it...so that when i my memory fades i can be reminded of what i wonderful life i enjoyed while i still could......yep...i think i have done that...but when one considers that i could just have easily made up a cast of characters and made their lives something worth reading.....with all the words in these past 4000 blogs......that is the humbling part......and as i search for my 2007 theme music.....i could just as easily search for the answer to this question...just what would it take for me to quit the blog and begin the novel?
