What? I have an AUDIENCE!?

Yes, it’s a momentous and humbling occasion here at drl2Blog – I’ve just discovered that at least one person outside my immediate family has actually read some of my ramblings! The WordPress software I use for this blog provides the administrator with a list of sites that have linked here, but I mostly ignore it because it’s usually just full of links from other Atheist Blogroll members where my blog magically appears on their list whether they like it or not. However, I just discovered that the otherwhirled (note trendy lower case format, common to better blogs everywhere but not quite as cool as having a single capital letter in the middle of the name!) has linked to me (voluntarily, no less)!

Of course, their description of my site uses the word “occasional” twice, and I beg to differ because if you look back at my posts it’s clear that – … hmm… well, yeah, OK, “occasional” works for me.

The problem with posting only occasionally is that when I finally feel I’ve got something worth saying, there’s already too much to cover. It’s a vicious cycle of occasionality – a word which, by the way, I just now invented and expect royalties on.

The Blog Against Theocracy is coming again this year over Easter weekend. Last year I said I would write something for it, but never quite got around to it. This year I absolutely promise to at the very least find new and different reasons for not getting to it. Or maybe I’ll actually write something. Who knows?

A couple of sites I’ve recently discovered that I thought I’d pass along:

Coming Out Godless is for people who have left their faith to talk about the experience, and Reason vs. Faith is a site for moderated debate between theists and atheists. I know which side I’m rooting for.

My wedding anniversary is this Sunday and for the first time in a long while my wife and I will have the house to ourselves for a few hours. Susan seems to have a few specific ideas on how to spend the time, but it might be tough to get me in the mood because I’m so used to foreplay beginning with those five magical words, “Aren’t the kids asleep yet!?”
