Because I don't kill enough time online

I signed up today for NaBloPoMo. What possessed me, I hear you asking? Well. I had this thought in the back of my mind that committing to writing every day for a month would get me back into a habit I've been out of for several years now. (I'm thinking this is something like buying clothes two sizes too small as an incentive to lose weight, which everyone knows doesn't actually work, but.)

What can I say? I miss the days when I had something to say and was just happy to get it out there, floating around, whether anyone read it or not.

My paid account recently lapsed, and I did know it had lapsed -- I am lazy and also poor -- but I only just realized that a basic account does not include image galleries, and now all my images are gone. I am kind of sick about this, since I had hundreds of images posted there, and I am so mad at livejournal I'm going to start hosting photos elsewhere, even if I do ever get around to renewing my account. So I have a question for you: Photobucket or Flickr, and why?
