Quartered Again!

So. Obviously I've missed a few days. Two issues and their solutions:

1. Pulled between 2 things

I keep finding myself wanting to dig more into web dev a lot more than I want to write blogs. And wanting to 'catch up' with where I should be (posting my 7th blog) I feel a sort of guilt drive to work on that instead of farting around with CSS.

Solution: Since they're both productive things, I'm going to let my heart wants what it wants. I'm posting this, then tinkering. I might finish a make-up blog later, I might not.

2. Missing the point

The real goal of NaBloPoMo—as I understand it at least—is to work on consistency. Y'know, posting every day, no matter what it's about. That's a bit different from NaNoWriMo (which I'm more familiar with) which, with it's big word goal, more often than not ends up becoming a sprint. However, like NaBloPoMo, it is also about creative unblocking and just doing instead of thinking.

Relatedly, I have a list of possible blogs ideas to write, but given that some of them have been floating around my head for a while, I keep treating them too preciously. Which leads to perfectionism procrastination spirals.

Solution: Just Write, Stupid!
