A rod for my own back?

I lay in bed last night, considering the crazy idea that I might try and post a blog every day in February. It's something I've considered before, and I have to confess I still consider it an unfulfilled ambition of mine to post something on every day in a given month, at least once. It is, in many ways, my Great White Whale. And Feb is the shortest month, of course, so lends itself to the task most readily. I don't want to put pressure on myself, though, especially when it's a busy time for me with office work, and I don't want to start posting any old shit I can think of, just to tick another day off the list. So I shall give it a bit more consideration. Or, I might just ignore it and see how it goes. If I get to the 10th or 11th and I've posted every day, maybe I'll commit and make the effort to achieve it. It's one of those things that I think I will find very satisfying and rewarding if I do it, but I'm not sure I can be bothered to make the effort needed to see it through. So, we'll see...

I shall leave you with my Quote Of The Day - uttered to me at 11.32am by a male cleaner called Derek:

"I think a member of staff might be seriously ill. Whoever used the gents cubicle this morning left something in the pan that looked like a sticky toffee pudding."
