Meh
There’s really something to be said for writing first thing in the morning. It’s almost midnight and I’ve been sitting here staring at my blog trying to think of something to write. Then I re-read old posts about how I have nothing to write. And old posts about how no one is reading. Quite a bit ofnavel-gazing [...]
Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )Tired
I’m beat. But I’m supposed to write, so here goes. Today was an odd mix of productivity, reflection, procrastination, conversation and just plain craziness (which I realize doesn’t end in -ion. Did I mention I’m tired?)
I got no sleep due to the work issue. Then I got up this morning and tried to think about the [...]
Here We Go, Again…
Goal: To blog every day this week (yes, I know it’s a holiday), starting with this Monday morning freewrite.
I got out of bed and had a million things running through my head: my review today, the work I need to get done, the laundry I didn’t fold. Then I took the dog for a walk. [...]
For Reals
We’ve established that I’m horrible at blogging. In an effort to get better, here are some random happenings:
Some bratty kid kicked my dog at the pet store the other day. Just walked right up and kicked her. Then the parents SORTA said “sorry” before picking up the kid, hugging her and telling her it was [...]
Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( None so far )If a Tree Falls in the Blogosphere…
Does anyone hear it?? I’ve completely neglected this blog. Not because nothing interesting has happened. In fact, TONS of interesting stuff has happened in the last couple of weeks. But in a bad way.
No, I’ve been absent for a number of other reasons a) i’ve been dealing with other stuff [...]
Let’s Talk about Stats, baby!
I was going to do another morning freewrite when I logged onto wordpress, checked my blog stats (as I do obsessively 3 or 4 times a day!). So I decided to scrap the freewriting idea and focus on the sexiest idea I could think of–blog stats!!
Even before logging in, I was anticipating what I would find. I’ve [...]
Manic Monday
Manic is a “happy” state, right? Like the high part of manic depressive? If so, the title of this post is misleading.
Maybe I shouldn’t have read I Hate Your Job yesterday. Maybe I should have stayed in the “ignorance is bliss” mode of just mildly disliking my ‘career path.’
Today was my first [...]
Workplace Complacency– Not Good Enough!
I don’t know how *real* bloggers do it, but my system for organizing my blog topics is fairly arcane. I either make myself a note on actual paper. Or type it into notepad. But my preferred method is a list of “blog prompts” that I save as an email draft. Really high-tech I know.
Anyway, after [...]
Slacker
So, I didn’t do my morning freewrite because, well, I just didn’t feel like getting out of bed.
Yesterday my blog stats were high. I am *not* a numbers girl, but I love looking at them. I’m somewhat obsessed. I guess it helps to have “sex” as one of your tags. They’ve completely tanked today, however, [...]
Really?
I read a blog post* yesterday that said in order to determine whether a story is good enough to sell (it was a post about freelance writing) you simply have to guage people’s reactions to it when you tell them. If they say “Really?” it’s something that might be publishable/useable.
I wish I had saved that link [...]
