Blogging From a Place of Peace

Hmmph, google is sending me traffic again. The number of visitors per day has increased over 300 percent. Excellent. Perhaps more odd, is finding over 50 e-mail referrers over the past 6 hours. Either I havenew fans, or I am under investigation (god only knows for what). I suppose we'll find out soon enough.

All this talk of traffic strikes some people as egotistical. I'd like to suggest the opposite. One of the problems with the medium of blogging is the fact that you can't really see your visitors. Thus, in order to know who your visitors are, and why they are at your blog, you must check your referrers. Its not egotistical; its being responsive to visitors. I said it. And I'll say it again.

In other news, my move went splendid, and I now find myself in a place of peace. My last place of residence was what we Austinite hippies call a "rave cave". A rave cave is a place where tribes of potheads come together to intake large regiments of drugs in order to keep their minds off of the terrible smell that they call 'home'. As I am niether a pothead, nor a fan of filth, you can imagine how much I enjoyed their cave. Anyhow, it is over. I thank god for that.
