"Honey, I got 500 followers!". "That's great dear, can you clean the cat's litterbox now?"

Steemit has become a big part of my life over the past three months, and it's been great. Reasons I like Steemit and plan on Steemin' on in the future:

It allows me to document my experiences, interests, and ideas.
It's inspirational; sure I could do the above in Facebook or a hundred other places, but the Steemit Community is supportive, collaborative, and cooperative. It makes me want to put effort into quality content.
It's blockchain. Mmm delicious blockchain investment.
It's new and exciting. It's fun to be part of something at an early stage that is innovative and growing.
It's educational. I learn new things, improve my writing, and it gives me an excuse to use Pixelmator all the time. Which I love deeply.

@solarguy - mover and shaker
@realcodysimon - good kisser
@twistychips - hates cats
@Joythewanderer - if you're wondering, she wanders wonderfully
@scrooger - swims in bitcoins

@whiteblood - owns steemitchat

Thanks to the Steemit developers. Services like Minnowsupport, Booster, Randowhale, Discord's PAL, Steemspeak, Steemitnow, Streemian, and many others.
Even though it's only been three months I feel like I'll be using Steemit for a long time. I want to continue building relationships and growing with this community and platform.

Here's a list of my posts from most recent all the way back to the beginning.

May the Steem always be at your backs, and the gifs always animate in your favor.

I always wondered if your UN is from cryptkeeper or cryptography. I suspect the latter, but the former would be totally boss. Congrats on the milestone!

I missed the part about the litter box.
I have four cats.
I was hoping for pointers.

You're in luck. While I've never considered myself an exceptional litterbox cleaner, I've got some pointers.

While cleaning, remember that there are thousands of people out there having to do something smellier and be glad you're not one of them.
Keep the litterbox in close proximity to a trash can or preferably a toilet. Minimizes poop handling time.
While handling the poop, don't make direct eye contact with the cats. This could affect the relationship.
Most importantly, you don't have to clean it perfectly. Life is too short to worry about every little cat turd.

I hope that helps

1...that would be me. I've done almost every shitty job you can think of and many of which you have no idea . Unless you're an old guy like me. Tromping cotton and cleaning grain legs come to mind.

2.Keep the scooped litter in the HOUSE? I'm deaf in the nose, I can't smell. (see #1)...but my wife can. She says that's a HUGE no-no.

3.When I scoop-poop the cats are no where to be found.

4.Perfection is the enemy of 'good enough" (my wife would disagree)

Pixelmator looks interesting. I'm glad you're seeing the other important benefits of steemit. :)
