I feel like a dumb-ass right now after having realized that time and time again my control issues seem to get the best of me. I'm referring to wanting to have complete and total control. I know I'm not the first man to feel this way and I probably won't be the last. I just like to have access to all resources when working/creating something.
For instance, it bugs me when I can't do something I'm so good at. Like my blogs for instance. I came across an issue with the number of blogs I had done during the month of January and how it seems like I was either missing or had an additional blog that I couldn't quite put my finger on.
Missing a blog isn't too bad. Usually it means I set the date wrong and I have to go back and fix whatever the issue might be. Sometime the issue makes no sense, like I deleted something and yet it still counts toward the total number of blogs or pictures I have. I guess its really just something to do with Ning and me being too controlling with how much of everything I have and where.
I came across this conclusion today when I was updating my blog and I kept going back to fix things like the way the picture was positioned and the size of the text. Somehow I wound up editing the blog after I published it and I came across having an extra blog that doesn't exist anywhere.

Tips for the future . . .
- Post the blog when you are sure it is perfect (I have two "imaginary blogs" because of this issue)
- Always safe a copy in the form of a .txt or .rtf file just in case you need to go back and fix something so simple and stupid
- Finally, be happy with what you post, delete if you get the chance before things head south, and be progressive . . it works
