For lack of a nuanced explanation, I was just plain tired.
When I come home from work, the first impulse is to get warm, have dinner, relax, go to sleep (oftentimes in the recliner, if not in the master bed), wake up, lather, rinse, and repeat. Said impulse lasted for a long period of time, and even into the Thanksgiving weekend spent in Southern California — which was compounded by the absence of television, no computer access, one faraway sister visiting from the East Coast, three nephews, one niece, four cousins, and a three-day diet of good, home-cooked food.
With that being said, I hope that your Thanksgiving holiday was a thankful one.
While I hope for more time and energy to write and post more meaningful entries here, I can’t promise that the blogging mill will be running at full speed. However, I’ll continue to do my best to make whatever gets posted here worth reading and talking about. Also, I’m looking for like-minded folk and kindred spirits who wouldn’t mind being featured guest bloggers here. The pay isn’t much (OK, it’s nothing), but you’ll have a dedicated audience of readers. If you’re interested, drop me a line and show me what you’ve got.
In the meantime, thank you dear readers for your continued patience and understanding. Your support guarantees that the sky will not fall and the world will not stop turning — even when yours truly gets a bit tired every now and then.
I can completely relate. A lot of bloggers are suffering from war and election burnout, among other things. Best bet, everybody will have their blogging mojo back by early ‘05.
DC - between an out of town major bridge tourney, visiting Mom and Dad in Florida - AND a fair amount of work on top of all that - my blogging has been pretty thin, too!
Here’s hoping our buddies & dedicated readers will continue to stop by when we’re ready to gear up again!
Ed and Peg said it right, a bunch of us are trying to get it back up and running. I think we will all get going again though. Glad your back DC.
Welcome back. Do what you can. We’ll be here.
