Another lazy Sunday. Nothing to say for today. I think I'm ready for this Christmas vacation to be over.
I find that as we're closing in on New Year's Eve, it's getting harder and harder to actually sit down and write these entries. It seems like I'm anticipating leaving this blog behind and moving on. While I'm glad that I've kept up with it, I will admit that writing this blog has sometimes felt like a chore.
I guess I'm just ready to be done with this blog.
I would say that this blog wasn't all that I thought it would be, but when I started writing, I didn't really know what I wanted this to be. A lot of it has been just me venting, mostly about work. I certainly didn't set out to make this blog a place to come and complain about work.
That's not to say that I haven't learned anything from blog writing. It's taught me something about discipline, having to write something every day (not counting the four days I've somehow missed along the way). At the moment, I have no plans to do daily updates on the next blog. I would also say that it's made me more aware of the value of preparedness in writing. I couldn't say how many times I've sat down to write an entry and I honestly didn't know what I was going to write about.
It might also help not to write in an environment where I'm distracted. Even as I write this, I find myself distracted by an episode of Speed Racer on YouTube, wherein a giant Monster Car powered by lightning is terrorizing the Scottish countryside. All of that is true, by the way. Speed Racer's plots can get that strange.
