The post in which I try to get over myself

Long ago, in a far off place known as The Exact Couch I’m Sitting on Right This Minute, I started this blog. It seemed to take care of some sort of void I had that the Chewy Sprees just weren’t filling. And for some reason, right off the bat, I decided to post every day. I think I was afraid that I would be all gung ho about blogging and then peter out shamefully, deleting my blog and never mentioning it ever again if I didn’t put something on the screen every day.

But lo verily I say unto thee, I stuck to it. And here I am, 194 posts later. Granted, some posts were more carefully thought out and constructed than others, but on the whole, I think I’ve done pretty well.

Which brings me to My Point. The total of posts I’ve lovingly crafted stands at 194, while the total of comments on said posts stands at 513. Divide that out, and that’s just over 2.6 comments per post.

Internet, that’s LAME. What gives?

Do not judge me to be a selfish, greedy, comment-monger. I realize that I don’t really set my posts up to be comment friendly. I don’t often never ask for advice, I don’t ask questions to my readers, I don’t give away free crap, I don’t acknowledge comments much, and I often write about things that I’m sure only warrant the response “WTF?” So I recognize that I have some responsibility in this faltering symbiosis.

But I need to know. (OMG A QUESTION) Does Yestertime meet all your daily blog reading needs? Would you rather have more questions to answer such as “What are your feelings on circumcision?” or “Who was your favorite member of NKOTB?” I want to know how to best serve you, my adoring public. Because after all, I do this for you!*

(*APRIL FOOL’S. Screw you guys, this is my blog. I do what I WANT! For the month of April, I think I’ll devote each day to a haiku on POOP. AND YOU’LL LIKE IT. Suckas.)
