Whatever...
My friend Andy likes to tell me that "butt + chair = writing". While I like the idea of it all, I can't help but think 'Dude, you do it for a living. Of course it's a simple equation for you.' Even if he's right.
The truth is, I have stopped over here many times over the past two weeks with the intention of writing something down. I'll sit and stare at the screen, thinking, only to sigh, click off and wander away. This place should be FUN.
I started this blog as an outlet to write. It shouldn't be a burden; it shouldn't be a stress. It should be something that I WANT to do. And I really DO want to.
I just don't have it in me right now. Not today. The truth is, I'm tired. I'm tired of my job; I'm tired of STUFF; I'm tired of random two-faced BS from people who I should be able to trust. I'm about two clicks off these days, and the desire to be nice has rapidly slipped from my grasp.
I am not particularly fit for human interaction at the moment. Maybe tomorrow.
Maybe not.

Pal, take your time. If you've got nothing to put down, you've got nothing. That bit about writing IS for people who write for a living. I have to be able to force myself into writing or I get into trouble. I go significant periods without updating my blog, however. Take care of you and the internet will attend to itself.
I just lay stuff out there. I am in no way a writer of any consequence, and probably rate as a bad writer. I use my site to vent mostly. But when you feel the urge, and you will...I'm sure you will be back here. We will be here also. I hope things perk up for you.
You've been under a lot of stress lately and I'm sure this cruddy weather isn't helping your mood any. Rest, rejuvenate and get back to us when you feel better!
I'm thinking that baking a chocolate caramel cake is a good thing. Productive and delicious. I'm where you are and I anticipate it getting worse in the next few days. I'd prefer to be walled off for a while. Work won't let us, though, nor will family, etc.
Maybe that's not a bad thing. However, the blog should never feel like an obligation.
Going to once a week postings on the same day was the best thing I could do for myself. Just sayin.
Dude, relax. It is I who will be your firedog.
I'll deal with the internet til you feel like coming back. Don't worry. Plus, you can email me names of people who are bugging you and I will come up with ways to dispose of them.
Um, fictional ways. Yeah, that's the ticket. FICTIONAL. Heh.
I'll be here when you get in the mood.
The nice thing about blogs is that they belong to you... no editors, no deadlines, no pressure... Blog as you like, or don't!
Highly unacceptable. Please print cookie recipes.
We'll be here when the urge bites you.
Never would have known it.:)
But I like Tiff's comment. lol! <3 you! -KDS
I'm not really interested in when you are in the mood. I will, however, check in to see when you feel like talking to us.
I feel your pain, BTW. I started writing about my trip, and now I'm bored. But every time I say I'm not going to finish it, then I remember something that my 2 readers would appreciate. Maybe tomorrow.
