NaBloPoMo
Somebody decided to make a contest in which bloggers must write a post every day for the month of November. Hence,
National Blog Posting Month
I am not entering the contest, but am still planning on trying this daily post thing out. Writing a post everyday for an entire month is going to be a challenge, so I've been busy thinking of things to write about rather than the strange people in the Underground, cute things my students said / did, how much I miss Canada, or how lonely will be when Jeremy gets on the plane November 15th.
I'm taking this as a personal challenge to try and improve my writing skills and maybe gain some new readers too (what blogger doesn't want more traffic on their site?)
Last week, I spoke with somebody who said she's going to participate in this as well... Since she hasn't updated her blog in like a month, I'm not sure if she is still planning on trying this out. If anybody else wants to try this (cough, cough, Lyndsay? Sully?), I'll make a link section to list all of the bloggers I know who are participating.
And so begins 30 days of rambling from yours truly about anything and everything. I welcome any suggestions about topics you'd like to hear about or any questions you would like answered (kinda taking a page from MM's book - even though I know I won't get two dozen responses to my post).
Until tomorrow...

Well, if you've been over to my place today, you know my answer. Sorry - and no offense, I hope you know! I actually wrote that before reading this. I never would have given you a virtual mooning! Unless you requested one, of course.

I got a good laugh when I visited your blog today. No offense taken at all :)
