If I don't say prayers every day? Is that frowned upon?

Because sometimes I just don't remember, or I don't have time, and sometimes I just don't give a blowfish. xP

Is that bad, I'm wondering?

I'd hazard to say the majority of Neopagans don't pray everyday and that most probably don't do any sort of deliberate daily devotional everyday. Whether or not it is bad depends on what you feel its purpose is in your practice.

If for example you want to meditate daily to get better at meditation, skipping several days isn't going to help you reach your goal.

I agree with what Starlock said. If you also want to make prayer a part of your daily life, don't beat yourself up for missing a few days here and there. The gods won't mind. Ask them to remind you. They will, I promise.

And besides, no one really knows if you pray once a day, sixty times a day or never--besides you and the gods. 3nodding

Paganism/Wicca is all about personal freedom. If you don't feel it is necessary to pray every day, then you don't have to.

As everyone else has said, it really depends on how you personaly view things. I think just the fact that you showed concern about prayer or lack of, and thought of it, is a simple but appreciated gesture to the gods. Show's you are at least thinking of them and their role in your life.
