At my old LiveJournal, I tried to get into the habit of posting every other day, and I was pretty successful. I finally got the hang of scheduling posts ahead of time (and as I write this, I still have three or four unposted posts queued up). I have around 50 old posts that I want to move here, most of which are about National Geographic issues. However, since I started working on that blog, I have added three other topics, My Travel Memories, Northern Illinois Destinations, and South Texas Destinations.
The pattern that I developed over time has been:
National Geographic
My Travel Memories
National Geographic
Northern Illinois Destinations
National Geographic
My Travel Memories
National Geographic
South Texas Destinations
That’s a lot of “National Geographic”s, I know, but I, will, by the time the dust settles, have about 167 years of magazines to get through and only around 40 years or so to do it in. At the rate I am going, I’ll be lucky to get through 120 years of magazines in that time.
I will keep that pattern here, with one exception.
That exception is that I will add extra topics to the rotation for that year’s big summer trip. For example, the week after I am posting this, I will be going on vacation to New York City with a side-trip to Philadelphia. When I return, I will temporarily add “New York City Destinations” and “Philadelphia Destinations” to the rotation until I run out of those topics.
I also occasionally make an extra post on a separate topic. I like to do that on one of my days off, but if it occurs to me to do so on the day when my post runs, then so be it.
Since I already have so many National Geographic posts, I will combine them into entire issues for the time being. So my first repost of a LiveJournal post will be the entirety of the January 2015 National Geographic issue, which I think I will put together and queue up right away.
