New Entries Coming Soon...
Wednesday, March 30, 2011 Yesterday my husband was meeting with a business associate for the second time. At the end of the meeting, his associate made an offhand remark about Free being a dad.
"Um... No, I don't have any kids..."
"Oh. But your wife hasn't posted on her blog since October."
HAHAHAHAHAHA! That is WAY better than the time a client asked if I was pregnant because my top was overly blousy!
Sadly, my long hiatus from blogging hasn't been caused by anything wonderful and exciting, like a new baby or a book deal. I got really sick in November, and in December I was furiously prepping for our first Christmas as a married couple. In January my job turned soul-crushing, and since then there hasn't been much I've felt like blogging about.
That's the problem with having a personal blog that's not really about anything. If I had a gimmick,* like What Claudia Wore or At Times Dull, I would have an impetus, a raison d'etre, and a formula to follow. Instead, I have to find something inspiring/interesting enough that I want to write about it, and then write something interesting enough to post. Sometimes that's a high bar to clear. In fact, there are several abandoned drafts littering my dashboard, posts I started writing and never finished. Honestly, who really cares that I like Fresh and Easy Rice Pudding with LOTS of cinnamon? Not even me, really.
But my husband's encounter made me think. There are a few things in the past 5 1/2 months that might be worth writing about. So new posts should be coming soon. Hopefully at least one a week. And who knows? maybe I could find a gimmick of my own. Like, I could learn a new circus trick every week. I'm sure the post about juggling chainsaws would be thrilling.
*I don't mean gimmick in a derogatory sense. I very much enjoy those blogs. They are just about very specific topics.
