Punctum Saliens

“I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and, doggonit, people like me!”

Just kidding.

But really. I’ve started getting a little discouraged with the blog. I saw a huge spike in traffic last week but now I’ve gone back to my usual trickle. I’ve been online only a couple months now and I know it takes some time but, you know … a little more traffic would be nice.

What I really need to keep in mind is that I’m doing this blog for myself and not the public attention, critical acclaim, “fame and fortune and all that goes with it. I thank you all.” I’m doing this blog to figure things out for myself and see where I really stand and what I really believe. Naturally, having input from others would help — sometimes I bore even myself with the stuff I write. But in the end, it’s only me who needs to benefit from this.

So, chin up, Ken. Keep up the good fight. Don’t let the lack of traffic and comments get you down. You’re the man!

That’s more like it! I’ll “borrow” from ol’ Stu Smalley but with my own little twist …

“I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and, doggonit, I don’t give a flying fiddler’s fuck if no one reads my blog!”
