That's because about this time in 2019, I realized that if I wrote a post every day, I might hit the 3,000-mark at about the same time as this blog's 10-year anniversary in February. I figured that if I could write five or six posts a week I could probably write seven. And so I did.
I didn't quite make 3,000 posts by the 10-year mark, though I was close. But as it turns out, I've kept up the daily blog-writing routine for more than 365 days now. Come October 1, I'll start giving myself an occasional pass on a Saturday or Sunday.
It's all rather silly, I know — a resolution I didn't have to make for a blog I don't have to write. But that's the fun of it.
