it's a good thing i'm not overly competitive ...

ariel has been blogging about two months now, and she's already got half as many posts as i do!

i'm in a pickle, just a bit, because on the one hand, i don't want to pooh-pooh her journaling by saying, "well, my posts do tend to be a lot longer and more substantial than hers." but on the other hand, i do kinda want to say that, just as an excuse.

which honestly, do i really need an excuse? no. i blog because i like to, so i blog when i like to and that's that. or, should be. boy, though, it really just puts things in perspective when someone is on-track to beat your ten-year blogging output in less than six months ...

luckily, i do have at least some consolation:

i really like reading her posts!

they're fun, and she's awfully sweet.

also ... it will be nice to congratulate and brag on her when she passes me up.

i can already see her cute little face beaming and getting all flushed.

okay, now i'm impatient for her to get there!

mission accomplished, i guess.
