same_skyI want to do something different with bitchypookums.com, which I set up as a stand-alone blog last year. I don't have the time or the energy to maintain it, especially since so many of my posts are filtered these days, and the double-posting gets old anyway. I had planned to write more.. Stuff for the other site.. funny, witty things. Then I realized that I'm not funny or witty. No, I'm kidding. What I mean is that being funny and witty on a continual basis requires energy, and I don't have the motivation to become that sort of blogger. I love reading them, but that doesn't mean I need to be one. I like having the freedom to write about what's really going on in my life instead of constantly coming up with creative essays on.. whatever.
I originally wanted to have a separate blog because I didn't want to comment on other blogs with my LJ address, since.. well, face it, LJ is not the queen of prestige in the blog world.. maybe this is especially true for someone who identifies as a geek. I don't know. I am a horrible lurker, anyway, and almost never post a comment on a real blog even when I want to. But then I came up with the name and Could Not Live Without It. (I love buying doman names, I really do.) But now.. I don't know. It just didn't work for me. I've become less and less.. open than I used to be. Probably related to my job, but I was headed in that direction already. Anyway. I still think bitchypookums is a great site name, and I would like to use it for something fun. I just can't decide what that would be yet. A group blog of some sort, perhaps.
Speaking of domain names I own, I get very disgusted with myself sometimes when I think of how many times M and I have talked about how we need to do some advertisment for BjornInTheUSA. (Crap. Let the domain name expire. Must fix that.) I think it could be a good, useful site, but I haven't expended the energy to make it so. And I would say that I would get right on that, but.. I have a Project To-Do list a mile long, and I never really get anything done except for Mosaic Minds.
Not that I'm complaining about that, really, because I happen to be extremely pleased with what us fabulous ladies have produced together. I just wish.. I just wish I had more time. And that I would use it for good. The only reason Mosaic Minds ever gets done is because I have a deadline (which, perhaps this is not the best day to say that, since we just postponed that deadline for this issue) and I'm held accountable by all those aforementioned talented ladies, contributors, audience, etc. Of course, wouldn't it be nice if that accountability motivated me to write more? But you can't have everything, I suppose.
Complete new subject now. Most people consider a new paragraph to be sufficient for that without writing two and a half sentences about it, but what can you say? I'm finicky. Anyway. My husband installed a game, and got annoyed with the opening credits that he couldn't skip past, so he left it running while he went downstairs, cooked dinner and ate it, then watched TV a while. When he came back, he had completed the first mission in his absence, and also, won a medal for doing so well at it. I think it's probably a really good game. Challenging. Intellectually stimulating. Lots of fun.
Cough syrup is my friend. In other words, it's time for bed.
