Waking up to The Misfits cover of “Monster Mash” was a surreal start to my morning, and as a result my head is not in the right place.
I hate it when I feel I have to apologize for lack of content – seriously, NO ONE updates as much as I do – but it’s the Canadian in me.
I am waiting for a bunch of things to happen/arrive/be released/be available, and it’s making me anxious.
Here are some funny things from the internets:
- Comic Sans has finally had enough of being everyone’s bitch
- .. this would have been a link to Newsweek.com with instructions to enter the Konami Code, but it looks like it’s been disabled. Too bad; it was funny
- Live blogging Wimbledon appears to have broken this blogger’s brain (the good stuff is at the bottom)
Yes.
I never think it’s worth saying, “Sorry I haven’t blogged in awhile, but…”
Just pick up and start posting again, however long the absence has been. Pointing out the gap doesn’t add anything, I believe.
I was really trying to point out the ridiculous of my apologizing for the gap, because it’s rarely more than 24 hours – people often apologize (or not, as you pointed out) for not blogging in weeks or months, but I experience the guilt if I go less than a DAY without sharing. I am pretty sure this is neurotic and dumb. :)
Damn these blogs and their lack of rules. How are we supposed to know when we’re failing?
I have a very non-official goal of trying to maintain an average of one post a day. Without really enforcing it on myself, it seems I’m at 3664 posts in 9 years, 8 months. Something like 1.04 posts per day, on average.
The nice thing is, after that long, I can miss a few days here and there and the average hardly budges, so my own one-post-per-day-on-average neurosis becomes easier and easier to maintain.
