Sometimes Blogging Is A Bitch

I totally need to chill out and take a break from writing, do some yoga, meditate (and already I’m back to writing when the next logical thing to follow would be journaling). Marky D. Sade laughs at me every night when I put away my laptop and then get out paper. The joke is that I’ve “gone analog”. If I were only so OCD about my house as I am about my blogs… I think I probably spent about 40 hours this week doing blog maintenance. You may wonder - what the hell do you have to do to maintain it? Change the oil? Rotate the tires? No, silly. I went through about a thousand blog posts and relinked, retagged, and recategorized every single one of them (for every one of the blogs I write).

I’m a little blog burned out. I’m ready to step away from the computer for a few hours, finally. But not for long, because here’s the other thing about blogs - if you don’t post for two days, you have just lost half of your readers. I get it - I don’t enjoy going back to the same blog post over and over again either. I am anxiously anticipating the next post and I get annoyed when it doesn’t appear as timely as I would like.

I would just like to get ahead. One day. (Wouldn’t we all?)

Still, bitch as I may, it is what I love doing. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
