Time Flies

Holy cow Batman! Where did the time go?

May 23, 2009 was my last blog. And it was a rant at that. Surprisingly no hate mail from it either. So either no one cared, no one read it or no one reads me. That is Ok. No hard feelings. Honest. I have had nothing really to say. Well, I have, but I have had no blogging energy to do it. Have pretty much ignored facebook and Twitter too over the last year. Trying to get better.

Writing takes a lot out of me. Don't know why. It just does. The run up to the actual act I have LOTS to say. Sit down to do it and BAM! Nothing. Or it comes out WAY too long that even I don't want to read. I don't know how professional writers do it. I don't mean the people who write books (God I would kill myself if I knew I had to write a 200 page book. I don't think I have 200 pages in me for an entire life). No I mean the people who write everyday for a living like news reporters, PR people, Editorialists, etc. I slave hours over what piddle I write here. With this posting I am trying to do it all in one take with one proofread, not the over and over and over proofing and touching up I usually do. It seems when I do that, that is when my "few lines" grow into a novel.

I hate when others do that and I REALLY hate it, when I do it so I guess that is the real reason why I have been tardy in this endeavor, even though my life has been pretty full the last 12 months and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. Lots to write about, just need to be more brief and concise about it.

I am starting to fall into the old funk. OK, I'll stop now.
