November
was National Blog Posting Month
in the States, a challenge to write and upload 30 posts in 30 days. I
managed it, and tied it in to the theme of 'excess.'
With
excess in mind, I finished off a bottle of Glenfiddich 12-year-old
and a bottle of JD, although there were only a few measures left in
the bottom of each. I tried finishing off the ends of a bottle of
Glenlivet and a bottle of Talisker, but I had a bad reaction to some
meds and it stopped me from drinking. Or functioning at all. Still,
quite a change for someone who's normally driving. (I didn't after drinking, obviously.)
My
most-hit post was the Cancalm launch,
a writeup of a CBD product launch in Cheshire: 114 views at the time
of writing.
My
stats throughout the month have got progressively worse, after an
inexplicable spike a while back. That said, although my daily views
have slipped off, I got just under 6,000 in September. And then...

I've
done a lot of blagging, getting into places, or getting turned away
from them. The more you ask, the more success you have- such is life.
I've seen fights, arrests, hospitalisations, evictions, press photo
shoots and attended 1 mental health event and 4 launches, meeting 7 celebrities. All in one
month. It's been fun. Might give it another shot next year, although
as the years go on, I have fewer backlogged ideas to rely on.
Now
time to get organised for Christmas.
