‘Why not restart Microblog Mondays?’ was the thought that hit me today while on my morning walk. Yes, that’s one of those times when thoughts crowd around in my head vying for attention. ‘Me first! No, Me!’ they clamour fighting with each other to be allowed to the forefront, and this time I let the spokesperson for Microblog Mondays have their say,

This was something I used to do consistently on Mondays awhile back but did not stick to somewhere down the line. So yeah, consider this post a restart to the old habit, or routine, or whatever you’d like to call it, of saying something—or in some cases nothing—in eight sentences or less.

Why eight, you might ask. The answer is simply this: because it was conceived as such by the original blogger. I’ll just continue the trend with no changes, just as she visualised it.

And that’s eight right there (not including this!).
