My blogging streak ended three days shy of my goal to blog every day for a month. Or two days shy, considering this is a month with 30 days (my habit tracker has 31, and I started on August 23rd, so, math.)
My streak ended because I traveled to Ann Arbor and stayed in my mom’s retirement castle, where I did not know the wifi password. My strokey mom is an unreliable source for wifi passwords, and it was late at night, so after I tried to see if I could log in to WordPress on my phone (I couldn’t), I let my daily post slide that day.
Then I was really in the groove of being in Ann Arbor visiting family and getting ready to play in the alumni band for the homecoming game, so I let myself off the hook for finishing my blog post magic sticker habit tracker month.
I loved blogging every day– having a constant flow of expression helped ease my creative constipation. I feel fine that I ended a few days early.
Hm, so, homecoming was amazing.
Like, one of the best days of my life.
Even better than last year, because MORE of my band friends were there this year.
I invited them. And some just showed up on their own.
That just leads me to think that if I invite even MORE friends NEXT year, it’ll be even MORE fun. And I can just keep doing that, every year. On and on into eternity or until we’re all super old and dead and can no longer play our instruments.
That’s just really a nice thing to look forward to.
Go Blue.
