Tumblr fun

I really like the format of Tumblr. It really appeals to my OCD tendencies. The side of the compulsive collector. The side of me that is afraid of losing things. I find it therapeutic. People who love random quotes should definitely go check it out. At the bottom of each page, you can click on Older Entries to go back in time. Quotes are something I basically collect – which is why I called it “Commonplace Book”, in imitation of Thomas Jefferson and all those other dudes of the 18th century. It becomes, strangely, a reference library. Yes, I have the books from whence the quotes came – but pulling out a quote from a book and putting it elsewhere, for easy reference … again, if you’re vaguely OCD you will understand the pleasure in that. Tumblr is perfect for such tendencies.
