And I thought I was compulsive. After reading this article in the NY Times about people who blog obsessively, my own blogging habits seem rather pedestrian in comparison. I’m not sure how these people manage to write so much; sometimes I spend a good half hour staring at a blank screen trying to think of an interesting topic for an entry. I could probably make things easier on myself by simply chronicling my daily routine: got up, went to work, sat in meetings, came home, wrote, etc. But I don’t think that would make for compelling reading material. I’ve even flirted with the idea of taking an extended vacation from blogging and coming back fresh a few months later. But like I said, I’m compulsive. Once I start something, I feel the need to stick with it until it’s done. And blogging is something that you never finish, so you can see my dilemma. I don’t think blogging will ever consume my life as it does with some of the people mentioned in the Times article. Even I need to get away from the computer after a while and there’s only so many interesting things a person can say in one day.
Oh, I almost forgot. My new wheelchair is almost ready. Yes, the State of Minnesota finally decided I had been a good boy and deserved a new chair before the one I have falls apart. I go in for a fitting in a couple weeks and then I’m me and my new ride will hit the streets in search of danger and adventure. I’ll call my new ride KITT and I’ll do up my hair like David Hasselhoff. Yeah, that’ll be so cool. Then maybe girls will finally notice me.
what does the State of Minnesota have to do with it?
