Welcome to this week's salon posts. If you missed last weeks, this is the return of an open-ended conversation I did a few years ago. I get us started with a couple of questions, but feel free to bring up totally different things if you'd rather.

(This is a public post, feel free to encourage other people to drop by, just note the 'if posting anonymously, include a name people can call you in responses' rule.)

Topics of the week:
Between being most of the way through Gretchen Rubin's Better Than Before which is about habits and figuring them out, and having recently recommended the Productivity Alchemy podcast (author and artist Ursula Vernon and her husband Kevin Sonney discuss productivity, with a wide range of intriguing guests, many of whom do creative stuff), and the fact I am still tweaking my spreadsheet of doom for the year...

Let's talk about habits.

What works for you? What so totally doesn't work for you? What do you look at and wish it worked for you, because it'd make life so much easier? Are you trying to build a new habit and want some ideas of things to try?

Recent things I've been doing:
I am up to the entrance of Peri Brown in my Doctor Who watching, which means I am almost to the end of the Davison era.

This is my first full week of work since the middle of December (since there was a week of vacation, a short week because of Christmas and New Year's, and then we had two days off last week for snow.

House rules:
* Consider this a conversation in my living room, only with a lot more seating. I reserve the right to redirect, screen, and otherwise moderate stuff, but would vastly prefer not to have to.

* If you don't have a DW account or want to post anonymously, please include a name we can call you in this particular post. (You can say AnonymousOne or your favourite colour or whatever. Just something to help keep conversations clear.)

* If you've got a question or concern, feel free to PM me.
