Oops. It’s been quite a few days, and this blog has fallen by the wayside. Of course, it hasn’t been forgotten. Greg likes to remind me every day that we need to write. He also likes to remind me that we need to clean the bathroom and buy a house, among other things. In the spirit of productivity, we’ll cross one thing off that list at a time. Right now, let’s get this blog up to speed.
The thing about blogging is, more often than not, you’re just talking about your life. And sometimes, life is boring. Or aggravating. Or a little bit depressing. No one wants to read about those things. At least, I don’t think you do. If you’re interested in hearing about this week’s violations at the “lady-bits doctor” or how I locked my keys in my car, then by all means, call me. We’ll talk. Otherwise, I’ll favor a little absence over transparency any day. I think most would agree.
The other thing about blogging about your life is, sometimes, life just gets in the way. Take Greg, for example. He’s been working several industry trade shows a week for the past few weeks. This usually means he’s out of the house by 6:30, on his feet all day, and walking back in the house around 8, exhausted and smelling like a tortilla chip. After a shower and a snack, it’s off to bed. If he makes it to 9, it’s a late night. Blogging has not been his top priority.
(Something to know about Greg, though, is he that loves sleep. If given a choice between a solid 8 hours and ME, I’m not sure I would win. I’ve actually come down in the middle of the night to find him sound asleep and smiling. It’s not the early bedtime that’s been unusual lately, but the grunt work preceding it. I live with an old man.)
So there you have it. A little bit of an explanation on where we’ve been, and why it hasn’t been here. Hopefully, we’ll have something fun and exciting to report. If not, it’s likely the dog will eat something he’s not supposed to, and that’s always fun to talk about too. Either way, we won’t be strangers any longer. How about you do the same?
