Is This a Theme Party?????

I haven't sat down to this blog in some time. Longer than I thought actually. What can I say. Been busy.

There is a whole community of industrious little bloggers out there rap, tapping their way through the day. Rearranging the ______ (fill in the blank--'english' for me) language in their own unique little plastic coated tide pools. Industrious, I say, expressive, even homy at times. I find links to blogs everywhere I go. I read, I click 'next'. I read...etc.. For several months it's felt as though this blog reading I do is actually research. Moving me inevitibly toward the answer to the burning question in my brain, "what do they have that I don't?" "Why are they able to keep up with their electronic journals and I cannot." Stamina?

Finally this evening I had a eureka moment. The one thing most blogs have that I do not have is a theme. Whether its knitting, or saving the whales, or peeping through their neighbors curtains there is almost always an underlying structure to blogs, a light at the end of the hallway toward which they move on cold fingers, one character at a time. Simple really. I must find a tether pole from which to tie this bouncing cursor that illuminates my thoughts.

Well, actually. I think I will divide and create more blogs. So that I can procratinate more productively.

Sounds like a plan.
