ocd arguments via teh interwebs

lately i've had several discussions via twitter and a few blogs. it's been fun, and generally good conversation, in my opinion.

the problem i run into is that i just want to check them incessantly. and when you're involved in a few at a time, and have a bit of time, you can just keep going and going and going.

but, internet discussion often doesn't work that way. not everyone is so...involved.

patience.

blocked!

they have finally done it. my blog is blocked at work. it may just be temporary, as the filter
says something about phrase combination. that phrase combo may drop off the page and allow access.

but, i can still read a ton if other stuff.

readership decline

what the heck? i've been doing decently on my hits lately, but today i'm hitting the bottom of the barrel. barely any visitors. has the winter break taken a toll? is everyone on vacation and not looking @ blogs from work? seriously, what's going on?

or am i just over-analyzing things and by the end of today my blog hits be up to normal levels?
