Today's posts were mostly info links, so I thought it might be a good time for a little blogging reflection.

If you are still reading, you can see I'm still at it. In the last week or two I've been paying attention to which blogs on my bloglines list I'm still reading, which have fallen to the wayside (143 new posts!) and what I'm adding. I am getting more selective. I have to. I still have to make a living, be a mom and wife and have a little bit of offline relaxation time. It is hard because I love to read, love new ideas and information and can easily get sucked into a 2 hour web adventure. This is not for the undisciplined!

I have also been noticing my odd organization pattern in my bloglines subscriptions. They reveal my biases so strongly, I have resisted making my blogroll public. It is like "I don't want you, dear readers, to know this about me." Which in itself is interesting to me. I want to get it a bit more in order before I take the plunge, but I will leave the categories, at least at first, so you can get a glimpse into my weird mind. But some of it clearly reflects biases that I'm not totally comfortable with in myself. Who'd have thought that one's blogroll was a source for personal reflection.

Here is one surprising organizational observation for those that know me well. I have a folder for food blogs, but no separate folder for chocolate blogs. HORRORS!
