Blogging's Dark Cloud

Every once in a while, I get frustrated with this here blog. I do. Surprised? I didn't think so.

I've been blogging since March of 2004. I don't think that makes me an expert, by any means, but I've been around for a while.

Some times, I just can't think of a damn thing to post. Sure, there are a hundred things going on in my life, but none of them seem "blog worthy," you know? I ran across a pamphlet yesterday that made me giggle like an idiot, but also made me think...







This point I can totally relate to - I get around 200 visits per day and an average of what?...15 comments? Bleh. Yeah, I'm whining. Deal with it.


Let's see...
Biochemical Resistance - check
Content Anxiety - check
Self Loathing - check
Pressure - check
Uh oh...

Great suggestions! *cough*

LOVE his shirt! lol
"Blog for your own enjoyment or you're in trouble." Um...yeah!

So, perhaps I'm suffering from Blog Depression!? Do they make medicine for this? Blogzac? Wellblogtrin? *snicker*

Nah, I'm ok. I DO blog for my own enjoyment. So there.

...but you like me, right? Right? lol

  1. I can't tell you how many times I almost quit my blog for about three months in the spring!

    But, I can't, I'm totally addicted!!!

  2. YES WE LOVE YOU CELTI!! XOXOXOXOXO

    I never looked at blogging as anything more then an easier quicker way to throw out my thougths.

    I used to have a journal I would write in but that became time consuming for me. Now..I throw down a few lines of nonsense and I feel great!! *shrugs*

    Guess I'm the weird one, huh?

  4. I know how you feel. I feel like such a slacker if I don't post something for a while. Or that my life is somehow dull. Truthfully, I think I'm just a comment whore.

    I've been contemplating taking a break but can't bring myself to it. My biggest problem now is that the number of people commenting on my blog as grown significantly in the last month and I feel obligated to read their blogs (nearly all of which are good) so I don't have time to post on my blog and read others. This is becoming a full time job!

  9. On the second to the last page, did it actually say 'suck cock for higher goodle rank'?

    So that's how to do it... :)

  10. I know the feeling... at times I wish for my readers to vanish so I don't have the expectation, and then when I get one or two comments I wonder what I've done wrong.
    Do it for yourself, maybe you'll have success there where I've failed.

    I don't know what I'd do without my blog. I'd be lost... there isn't anything about blog co-dependancy in that thing!
