I MUST keep ...I think Jen's got the right attitude. I MUST keep reminding myself that cyberlife should NOT take precedence over real life; that if I find I'm NOT getting things done in real life because I don't want to miss something in cyberlife or feel obligated to cyberlife, then I need to step back and re-prioritize.<BR/><BR/>Blogging should only be done because it's FUN or a creative outlet. I've got to make that my new mantra. Once blogging and/or following blogs starts to feel like an obligation, I'm going to make a point of taking a break again. Only hopefully not for so long.<BR/><BR/>Course now you've got me Twittering. We'll see how long I last on there before I'm totally lost.Bev(QB)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03571585694956752892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735803662029765939.post-28003070570214025872009-02-08T20:39:00.000-05:002009-02-08T20:39:00.000-05:00Am I the only blogger not secretly (or not so secr...<I>Am I the only blogger not secretly (or not so secretly) aspiring to be a published author?</I><BR/><BR/>Nope, I don't want to be a writer either. Just a critic... :D<BR/><BR/>By the way Bev, you give me hope that I can walk away from my blog and other blogs and get myself together, which would mean getting off the computer, less reading and more walking and exercising. I just might do it now. Walk away for a while. You've inspired me greatly. :DLVLM(Leah)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01344785501583933784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735803662029765939.post-18379307560741292382009-02-08T19:56:00.000-05:002009-02-08T19:56:00.000-05:00Bev - I used to have lots of blog guilt, but I fin...Bev - I used to have lots of blog guilt, but I finally found my "flow" and now I do an average of two posts a week, which seems to work for me. Honestly, I don't always have something to say...and if you don't have anything to say, why blog about it?<BR/><BR/>Yes, I believe my new reading habits are responsible for the crazy weather. And possibly the economy. My latest post was a request for historical romances that feature pregnancy. Frightening.

GEESH!<BR/><BR/>And I give you props, Jen. You blog when you blog and you don't seem to have any blog guilt about it. Of course, you're also Twittering or tweating or whatever the hell you cool girls call it. I joined but got so confused trying to figure out how to find people and how to follow conversations that I never went back. This is also why I don't hang out in Yahoo groups. Sometimes you CAN'T teach an old dog new tricks I guess.<BR/><BR/>And I just popped over to LB's place. I knew the book was coming out very soon but for some reason didn't remember just when. Am I the only blogger not secretly (or not so secretly) aspiring to be a published author?Bev(QB)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03571585694956752892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735803662029765939.post-22712895206256407502009-02-08T17:08:00.000-05:002009-02-08T17:08:00.000-05:00P.S.

The earth has shifted on its axis and hell has frozen over. I know. It shocks me too.<BR/><BR/>I haven't been able to comlpetely get away from blogging, but I have been pretty lazy about it lately. No reviews. I've mostly just been posting questions and requests for recommendations, which forces the commenters do all the work for me. :)<BR/><BR/>As I told Leah in response to a similar post a while back, I'm just a really good faker. I'm good at throwing together some half-assed stuff at the last minute and making it look like I tried...even though I really didn't try. Shhhhh. Don't tell anyone.JenBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02838413937781714488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735803662029765939.post-14688430166502056912009-02-08T15:43:00.000-05:002009-02-08T15:43:00.000-05:00I've got to try and do a bit of blog reading. I do...I've got to try and do a bit of blog reading. I don't have a clue what's going on with everyone. I'm not quite sure if I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling anti-social or if it makes things worse to know that there are a whole lot of people feeling the same way.<BR/><BR/>I didn't get into it in this post, but I think all the suck-ass economic gloom and doom is effecting everyone too. And that's on top of the winter weather- even you guys have had some sucky weather this year, haven't you? <BR/><BR/>That is so cool that you got to a booksigning. I have to do some traveling to get to most of them too.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and if you feel like laying on the couch staring at the wall, I say go for it. Screw it, sometimes we all have to just shut down for a while.Bev(QB)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03571585694956752892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735803662029765939.post-44476029006943703452009-02-08T14:28:00.000-05:002009-02-08T14:28:00.000-05:00Bev, I totally get you.

I'm still managing to get on blogs and do my own blog, but all my last blog posts have been major bitch fests. I have no patience right now for any kind of crap and am taking it out on everyone. <BR/><BR/>I'm also so antisocial at the moment that I don't even go out of the house for days on end. Although I did go to a book signing with Shelli Stevens and Lauren Dane because we never have those things here in the NW, so I had to take advantage. And I am up north with some women folk friends who are telling me it's all about my hormones. Probably true.<BR/><BR/>Your blog post tells me I'm not the only one going through a rough/weird patch. Hang in there and at least you're listening to books and watching movies. You could be like me, laying on the couch just staring at the wall. <BR/><BR/>And glad to see you're back. I was getting really worried that something bad happened.LVLM(Leah)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01344785501583933784noreply@blogger.com
