It wasn't that long ago, it seems to me, that I was lamenting with my friend Cyndi that I had just finished my 1000th blog post but that it was impossible to conceive ever making it to 2000 (sort of a misdirected, "my life is over" sulk). And, yet, here we are at 3000 posts. Part of it relates to my desire to create themed discussions (Proust, Pessoa, faith, 2025 readings, etc.), which inspire posting. Part of it, I guess, is that, despite my protestation s to the contrary, I'm not quite dead yet after all. But most of it is extraordinary self-absorption. Now, how to mark this odd moment? I think for the 2000th post I created a Top Ten places visited post, so that's out of the question (maybe I'll revisit it for my 4000th post). Since I have nothing planned, why don't I just capture this moment in time.

This doesn't do justice to this moment, I suppose, but it's an interesting snapshot, nonetheless.
