7 reasons I don't really feel like blogging lately
Sunday, December 14, 2008 at 10:09PM 1. It's the holidays and there's all this great food and baking and yummy caloriffic stuff, and it all makes me very logey (I would say bloggy, if bloggy meant what it sounds like it should mean, instead of what we know it to mean, which is adv., "having to do with blogging"). It's hard to be all thinky after that, unless said thinkiness occurs during the commercial break. Okay, I'm responsible for a lot of the baking myself, but that's just another reason I don't have the mental energy to blog; I used it all while baking stuff.*
2. My kid isn't doing anything great these days.
Okay, fine, yeah yeah, everything he does is inspirational and amazing and cue the symphony orchestra. It's just not anything I feel like writing about.
3. My witch elf on Warhammer, Stabitha, is really quite naked. Like NAY. KED. I need to get her something to wear. I suppose I could have picked one of the character types with more of a penchant for garments, but she's good wholesome stabby fun. It's just a little cringe-worthy to watch her take on lions and bows & arrows (oh my!) wearing only a bra and a loincloth.
Oh, well, and she has a belt. So, y'know, she's halfway there.
4. My place of employment shuts down between Christmas and New Years, and seeing as I was on maternity leave for 3/4 of the year, I don't have any holidays coming to me. So I'm trying to cram in extra hours where extra hours don't want to fit (when what I REALLY want to do is tell them to cram the extra hours where the sun don't shine) so I can be paid for that week and we don't have a starvey, starvey Christmas.
5. Other people's high-emotion holidays make me tired. No, really. I'm like an energy vampire in reverse or something.
6. It is FUCKING FREEZING HERE this week. It's hard to think past your next sweater.
6. Did I mention the 5 extra pounds I'm now lugging around due to Christmas calorie carnage?

I'm with you on not feeling like blogging. But then here I am, at 4:00AM commenting on your blog. Weird. My damn kid is still awake screaming bloody murder, what's your excuse?
Tell Xander to do something cute already so you can write about it over there, or better yet, complain about it over here!
Just think how cold you would be if you didn't have that 5 extra pounds. I call it my winter weight. Plus 5 extra pounds fills out wrinkles. So grab another sweater and show off that lovely youthful wrinkle free face. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! LOL
I'm with Michele, your just getting ready for hibernation starting in January, when it reallys is cold. I agree on the yumminess, we need that kind of yumminess in June too.
I am so totally there with you. I am like all ugh!! yuck!But heck, I just decided to go around commenting on people's blogs before I muster up the courage to write something lame or just all too crappy. Aren't the holidays fun?
I'm glad you blog anyway. It cheers me up ;)
5 pounds? Amatuer ;) Besides, if it's that cold, you need the extra warmth.
Those are all very good reasons! Now go make some clothes for your elf chick.
i agree.
although last weekend ... i got a spurt of energy and pumped out a couple of posts ... with delayed posting.
but now i'm bored...so i'm running around commenting.
