Yep, not too much new or maybe I’m too inhibited to come up with something. I did enter the 21st century yesterday and got my first iPod! I love being way behind the curve. Now I’ll have to master it. I’m sure I’ll be able to pull it off – it’ll just take some concentrated [...]

I haven’t blogged about blogging in awhile, and I’ve been pondering the boredom of the blog. If only I could treat the blog as a true journal. I know there are people out there who do - who comment on almost every thought, pure or otherwise, post all types of pictures, and name names. Alas, that [...]
Struggling for a topic…

Once again, I wrestle with content. I just forced myself to do an inventory of potential topics and drew a blank. Every now and then, I try and force myself to write an entry even if I have nothing to say. I do think it’s good for me to occassionally struggle for a topic. Sometimes [...]

Blogging lull has returned – it always does. Instead of the hot chocolate January version, we have the sit-by-the-fan August version. Please stand by. Zzzzzzz…

April Fool’s Day is this blog’s birthday. Happy birthday, blog. Two years of ups and downs. A recent burn-out entry pretty much sums up what the state of the blog is on its second birthday. I’ve pulled back a little lately. I’m unsure again of what I want from this blog. I feel like I [...]

My oldest friend and I looked through our grade school newspapers last night. I hadn’t looked at them in many years. And I had a few entries over the years, plus honor roll mentions and a paper coeditor mention during eighth grade. I was struck by an eight year old’s simple but beautiful (maybe I am [...]
Blah about blogging…

For most of the past year, I’ve been fairly positive about blogging. Sure, I’ve had my blogging lulls, but it’s given me an excuse to find pictures of deserts. The last week or so, though, I’ve been somewhat negative. I haven’t had much to blog about, which means if I really want to blog about [...]
Reflections on the art of blogging…

I haven’t blogged about blogging in a long time. When I first started to blog, I spent a lot of time thinking out loud, or should I say on line. I started this thing as a “lovely experiment” on a whim and slowly determined what I wanted from it. I recognized that it was a [...]

South Australia photo by EsslingerBrian
This is a photo of the Nullarbor plain in Western and South Australia, a very flat desert/scrub area with, surprise, no trees. Pretty much sums up my brain waves right now. Time to go back under the covers and wait for double-digit temperatures…zzz……
Blogging lulls…
Posted in blogging on October 2, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
For some reason, I always feel pressure to update this thing. When I have blogging lulls, I feel guilty. I know some of this is relative to my entire life – I have always felt pressure, warranted or not, to keep on top of things, keep updating things, not fall into lulls. So a blogging [...]
