I only have three more writing days this year. I will do my December in books on Wednesday since I will be doing my year in books in early January. So, here are some random stats and my top five posts of the year. Views – 20,469. That is almost 8000 more than last year. … More My Year in Blogging 2021
I am extremely tired. The combo meal of depression, a messed up sleep cycle, and a flu shot has done a number on me. So, today, you get a lazy post where I talk about blog stats. I know you must be so excited. I look at my blog stats multiple times throughout the day. … More When Old Posts Return From the Dead
We have hit a milestone here at The World’s Common Tater. This is post 1500! Unlike TV shows, this milestone post will not be bigger and better than the rest of the posts. There are no big guest stars or events. Just me thinking about my blogging life. I started the blog way back in … More Post 1500
Here I am again. Monday morning with an overwhelming sense of melancholy about having to leave the house. Another Monday morning with no blog post ideas.

My math is good enough to theorize that today would now be 11 years. 11 years of babbling about nothing. Before that … More Happy Blogiversary to Me
Wow. This was over 10 years ago. I still haven’t found a following. I’m not good at that and my blog isn’t good enough to draw in readers based solely on content. I don’t think I’ve reached the goal of redeveloping my writing skills. I still stand by the final answer of writing what you … More How/Why I Got Into Blogging
I should probably wait until the end of the month so it’s officially mid-year, but I have a severe case of “I should write something but I have nothing to say” so I am going to revisit times this year when I posted and people read. Maybe you will find one you missed. Here are … More My Year in Blogging So Far
Today should have been the day I was able to write a decent post. I work 1-9. I had all morning. I was not in the right head space to write this morning. I got out of the house and got coffee and read my book for a while, but it didn’t help. So, instead, … More My Top Viewed Posts Over The Past 365 Days
I recently hit 200 followers on this blog. I would like to say welcome to the new followers and also I’m sorry for the inevitable disappointment you will feel when you read my posts regularly.
