That's impressively anal retentive. Kudos!
Perhaps, but somewhat necessary when your book is a collection of mostly-standalone essays that are being written in no particular order. It's easy to forget what you have and haven't written yet.
I love that I can check in on your blog after having not read it for several months, and catch up in just a few minutes. Still not running regularly, still not yoga-ing regularly, still working on book, still obsessing about details, still the same. Love you!

Anon - you forgot "Still only blogging once a month" :P
