Some Really Good Excuses As To Why I Haven’t Been Blogging Much Lately
Posted By Melissa on February 7, 2010
Have you noticed my inconsistent and sporadic online presence lately? Well, it’s for really good reason. Wait…what? You didn’t notice? SIGH.
For some reason, things have gotten very overwhelmingly chaotic in my life. I think all my kids are going through some sort of hormonal crisis, which will be a blog post or two sometime in the next few days.
Honestly? I’m not doing well in my business law class and I’m studying a lot. Or, I should say, trying to study. A little. But for some CRAZY reason, I’m noticing my ADD is super active during this class. When I take the quizzes, the questions look like they are written in Egyptian hieroglyphics. I can’t figure them out. And the book? I have to sit VERY upright or I’ll fall asleep after reading 3 pages. It makes for good nighttime reading.
Also, I have to write these crazy, godforsaken poems. And I’m sure I mentioned that I don’t know how to write poems. My next one that is due on Wednesday, I have a choice of a Sonnet, Villanelle or Ghazal. The last two I’ve never heard of. I was hoping for Haikus. At least our next unit is in short stories. I think I can do that. No, wait. I KNOW I can do that. I think.
Not to mention, I think I have major blog post idea burnout. Life isn’t throwing me posts, it’s throwing me some sort of citrus fruits.
Oh yeah, let’s not forget. I don’t have internet until tomorrow night. Don’t tell anyone but I think I’m pirating someones internet signal right now. Because somehow, this evening, I was able to get online and not have to use my cellphone. Heck if I would want to write a blog post from my cellphone. That would be nuts and take forever. And really? I suck at texting so I can’t imagine trying to text a blogpost.
Lastly, I’m just fricking lazy.
But I’ll be back sometime tomorrow. With a real post. About a real event. That really happened. Not saying that none of this has not or isn’t happening. I’m just saying that tomorrow may have a more interesting, entertaining, heartwarming or just plain awful post. So good night. I’m off to figure out how to ruin the Sonnets, Villanelles and Ghazals as we know them today. Assuming anyone today knows them.
And those. Are my reasons. Good enough for me. But, I miss all of you and your lack of comments.
In the infamous words of some big guy with an accent…I’ll be back.
Since MonkeyBoy debuted on Wednesday, I thought it only fair that I write a post about my daughter’s birth. That is after all in my job description – make everything fair amongst children or face subsequent tantrum. I figure if I give the illusion of fair, I’ve succeeded.
