Rule #3.

From how to blog by Tony Pierce:

3. dont be afraid to do anything. infact if youre afraid of something, do it. then do it again. and again.

Sometimes the links and comments become a journal. I posted pictures of myself at 18 playing a flaming guitar. I was terrified by an MRI. I feared my beautiful new house would be destroyed by a hurricane. I was depressed and angry about being laid off. I even channelled Raymond Chandler (remember channelling?).

(I tried to find links to all of these posts, but I'm still frustrated by not having some kind of category mechanism on my blog. I do, in fact, want to Quote Myself from time to time.)

Sometimes I cry when I post, and I think that might be dealing with things that I am afraid of. So I'm pretty solid on Rule #3, Tony. Not every day, not even every month, but it happens.
