Wow, I did it! I made it through NaBloPoMo, postin' like a mofo, shootin' out my mojo, keepin' it on the down-low.

I apologize for that last bit. I'm just excited to have made it. I promise not to inflict my lame "rhymes" on you again.

Like some guy said one time,* my month of daily postings will end not with a bang, but a whimper. I wanted to put together a video of the kids for the last day of the month, but instead of editing video tonight, I met with some of my fellow students to hammer out a potential panel we want to propose for a conference (a.k.a. grad school stuff). Business before blogs, as the saying goes. It doesn't. I just coined that on the spot. I'm spinning out magic over here, people. Blog magic!

Speaking of magic...GOB Bluth!

So, this is the final countdown (see what I did there?? Huh?) to NaBloPoMo, but I think it's taught me a few lessons, just like DJ Tanner would have learned. For one, writing every day is hard, but it's not that hard. So I think I'm going to try to post more often, even when I'm really busy. Because the other thing I've learned is that I get a lot out of posting on this blog. I thanked my readers a few days ago, so I won't embarrass us all by doing so again.

Okay, I lied. Thanks! You're the best.

*Actual way one of my students introduced a quote in an academic paper once.

I, for one, completely enjoyed reading your daily posts. I always think it's a good to keep the neighbor's informed.

As a magician, GOB is my hero. I can't believe you would make fun of him. COME ON!

I loved knowing there would be a daily posting. I'm a Tig Web junkie :)

Yay for blogmentum! I've lost it all, but I also want to post more for the same reasons. AND I made a Tanner (to Danny) reference to day to our Nanny completely out of the blue, before I'd read this post.

We are living parallel lives. And are nerds.

Also! Blogmentum! I hope you keep it up. I loved knowing there would be a post from you every day, and you're the only blogger I read who was doing Nablopomo, too.
