The new plan is to try to get some blogging done on the bus because using the Palm is easier than whipping out the laptop, even if it does cause my hand to cramp up using the evil graffitti 2 with the tiny diameter palm stylus.
Hopefully this will free up some time at home that I usually use to blog to use for actual creative writing. Hopefully too the blog writing habit can become a writing habit. Not to mention the exercise habit, of course :)

So far, since writing that, no writing or exercise has taken place :)
