doesn't.

I had family in town for a week, and I had 390 posts in my reader yesterday -- even though I DID read some blogs over the week! 390!!

she doesn't either.

again with the half-assed. Works for me.

hits mark read every night on the reader, regardless.

well, that makes sense

do you have lots of readers who seem to abandon reading you if you don't leave them comments for a few days? I seem to have lots of those

I let the reader build up until it gives me a panic attack every time I open it

she does what she can and worries about home and kids and work first

shees, MountainMomma, show us all up with your priorities!

I don't at all mean present company -- I mean less devoted ones

she does. But is a notoriously bad commenteer, so bygones.

her reputation preceeds her.

I prioritize like you MountainMomma, but I do feel guilty if people leave me comments and I don't visit them back

do you feel guilty about this too?

probably, but I decided a while ago that I can't do everything. If they don't like it, they don't come back. Bygones.

I can understand that, I try to visit people who comment but I don't get a lot of comments so that may be the difference

she agrees with Latte

how many comments back meets "politeness" standards -- does it have to be one for one, or one per week, or what?

very very good about commenting back until she got a little traffic jump, and now sucks ass.

I think that one per week is fine but thats just me. I just like that people read. Yeah comments are great but its ok if its only

once in awhile

no answer for you, but would like one.\

I flatly refuse to ascribe to any "blog rules", so I just don't know.

agrees with LM. SHould change her name to that, actually. Agrees With Latte Mommy. I think I've said that every night this week.

Mr Lady could just change her name to "What She Said" -- it's catchier

how do I love you, MrLady, let me count the ways..

's son wants to know if LM will blog about hte safe return of Kitty

's son thinks an abduction attempt on his sister\s part would give LM excellent blog fodder

she may be up for the challenge, MrLady, but only for your kids

LM is keeping kitty in nefarious circumstances and the photos are FAKED

ZJ's method sounds so organized...somehow I am not that organized

thinks it's stinking HILARIOUS that her 10 year old is planning blog posts

knows that ZJ could beat us all down in the organization Dept.

that ZJ should offer lessons

1of3!

take those lessons.

ack! now I need a class!

to be more focused, feels pulled in too many directions at once all the time.

ZJ is definitely right on the compartmentalizing thing -- how to manage when my mind is so flighty, though?

given up caffeine almost completely -- makes me too jittery

I'm just a procrastinator, likely to do what's fun before what's necessary

covering her eyes. Giving up caffeine - blasphemy!
