I actually love reading all your philosophical stuff and I'd love to have more people like that on my f-list :P But good old personal stuff is nice as well :3

So glad you're planning a run of entries! For me, LJ feels like a more complete place when you are posting regularly [because I enjoy your entries, both kinds] and I definitely don't feel that for you personally, quality suffers when the entries are shorter. Sometimes we just need to keep up to date and I find that for me, the longer that occurs between significant life events, the more stuff piles up and the harder it is for me to find a starting point to writing about them. Almost like... tidying up. I genuinely didn't feel this post of your was scattered, as a reader.

I can't really post every day as personally, I almost feel I lose people if I post every day. I feel my entries get lost in the deluge and people miss things so I like to try and leave a couple of days in between but at the moment I'm averaging around three times a week, which is great for me! It means I'm breaking everything up into bite-sized chunks which feels a lot more manageable, and feel more connected with the community.
