No, I wasn't "planning" on blogging today

But I've noticed a few interesting things recently. Okay, maybe they're only "interesting" to me. But Algeria, who just recently visited for the first time, a fairly large country at the top of the African Continent, has RE-visited again, within a WEEK. Yesterday, there was a two-hour period where I had more than 20 hits (I forget how many it was exactly, but I'm thinking it was something like 26) in a two-hour timeframe (what blogspot calls "now") from just the UK. That was more hits in that two-hour period than US or Canada. That shit doesn't happen, or at least not to me.

Also, a few of my "older" posts are being read, and Malaysia is back (again). I find that interesting.

Also, my most recent posts that hopefully made you think about the life you're living, have only been commented on by two of my "regular" readers. Do the rest of you want me to ignore the "big" questions and just get the eff back to selfies and pics of my furbabies and BTS stuff for when I'm on set?

Yes, this blog is essentially for me. But I also seem to have lost my former best-commenter or biggest fan, my sister, Inner Hippie. I'm not saying she'd deliberately desert me, but believe me, I notice who's visiting/commenting. I miss her feedback. We're not the most "in-touch" siblings, but we definitely have a connection.

Possibly with Mercury in retrograde (again, THANK YOU, Mercury, for always seeming to be in retrograde!), things that appear to be going on in MY life are also going on in the life of other regular readers, like Inner Hippie. Maybe we're both stepping into a depression. of sorts (Thanks, Mercury), and we don't really feel like dealing with "Big Picture" issues. Maybe all we want to do is drink cheap boxed wine. I know I certainly do. Well, I want to be working too, but that's something else entirely.

Sometimes there are words that just gotta spill out. Sorry if today's post hasn't been as fun or funny or inspirational as maybe you'd hoped. Let me know what you're hoping to read here. I'll try to fit your needs into my writing inspiration, because again, this is not just some daily journal. Fuck that. Let's talk about real shit. I'll start, and then you can comment.

FYI, two of my fingernails broke recently, including the freak pinkie nail, so here's tonight's selfie of the left hand. Yes, I gave the nails two coats. I haven't "tidied up" this particular manicure; I'm counting on sleep and hand-washing to perfect it.
