I only count on those when I follow through for commenting or reading same. I suppise if I wrote more (most recent post is at least 2 mo back) I would worry abt it, but I dont.

Never bothered putting them back. Not worth the trouble,<br /><br />I also stopped looking at my visit totals. I doubt I'm anywhere near a million, but I just stopped worrying about it.<br /><br />Someone once said to me "I thought you said you blogged for yourself, and didn't care how many people read it?"
