Not (brain)dead (yet)

Posted on August 10, 2005 by Brian

I’ve tried. Honestly I’ve tried.

No blogging the past month or so because of

* a day-to-day schedule that has careened wildly out of control
* a new house (and related activity) which has limited my after-hours online play
* the ongoing deterioration of my frontal lobe
* a short vacation
* one of my periodic blogger funks

Regarding the last factor — it’s not a crisis of faith so much as a failure of nerve. It all ties into personal characteristics of mine that are far too tiresome to relate.

I came back from some time away from the office anxious to get posting again, and hopefully will do so soon.

    God to hear the lobe is still partially functional… I find tiling quite useful funnily enough 🙂

    Brian, perhaps there’s only so much blogging available in the universe and since you got me hooked on it via Megan Boler’s class, perhaps I’m taking up a bit of your quota??? 😉 Thanks for being such a great teacher. 🙂

    Stop worrying and write when you can… us who appreciate your work can wait.

    How do you tell a crisis of faith from a failure of nerve?

    Welcome back. I’m grateful you’re safe and sound and look forward to whatever resumption comes whenever it does.

    Hey Blamb, welcome back, take yr time. I’m ill and have about a million feeds to read and loads of posts to write & can’t face either. I read yours though! Because you are the Blamb! – Now go look in the mirror, arms akimbo, and say that to yourself with a straight face. Probably other stuff will seem slightly less ridiculous.

    Take your time Brian. It’s summer! When you’re ready, we’ll still be here.

    After vacationing for 10 days on your side of the border (Toronto and Niagara Falls), I can understand the value of being away from the office and then being anxious to post after being away. Looking forward to whatever.
