mousmeI've been a little remiss about posting daily, so I've decided to follow the example of a few of my LJ friends and do a sort of meme. For each day of next month, I will let one of you fine folk pick the topic of a post for each day. So in the comments you pick a date and tell me what you'd like me to write about on that day. I will update the list as required.
If days are left blank, well, I shall just have to make something up. Since I don't have crazy numbers of people on my flist, feel free to pick more than one date. :)
