Diagnosing Myself with Blogging Fatigue


I have a confession to make.

I am officially sick of blogging.

It’s not you. It’s me.

I’m tired of hearing myself talk.

30 days is nothing to sneeze at.

The Red Kangaroo can make an entire baby kangaroo in just 30 days.

The adult life span of a head louse elapses in the course of 30 days.

But I didn’t sprout a marsupial.

Or spend my entire life feeding off scalp blood.

I just slapped some mental debris on a page and crossed my fingers that someone would come by and read it.

I am glad I did it. I proved to myself that I have the capacity for consistency and discipline, at the very least in small, insipid doses.

And I also proved…

Well, I can’t think of it right this second, but I’m sure it will come to me later.

You know, once my computer is powered down and I’m tucked in my pajamas.

Either way, it’s fine.

I made it to the end of the race without sustaining any major injuries.

So if you don’t mind, I will just snatch up one of those “participant” ribbons and be on my merry way.

Then I may or may not sleep for a week.

At the very least my laptop will be snoozing.

After I finish that damned paper of course.

I’ll be back. Just not tomorrow.

Thanks for reading.

  1. You are awesome. I am more likely to go thirty days without blogging than blog thirty day straight. I’d love to though. Life and work just keep getting in the way.

    Happy snoozing

  2. Congrats on making 30 days. I can tell you that I would never had made it so I admire anyone that can. And I admire you. Now, take some time off to nap. You deserve it.

  3. Well you are a better blogger than me, dearie. One of these days I’ll rejoin the blogosphere but for now, I want credit for driving my damn dog back and forth to Tampa for the past month. It’s sort of like posting, except nothing like it.

  4. I SO know what you mean. I made a commitment to post every day this YEAR. So far so good…. I’m down to the wire and barring any major catastrophe, I hope I will make it all 365 days!
