Sporadic

I must apologize for the lack of diligent blogging, these days. I feel like May was a big slump and June just kind of happened. And I'm still slumping.

Well, at least when I compare myself to the "giants" of the blogosphere.

I read some of those blogs and think, why didn't I write that? I mean, I'm funny (when I try... really hard), our life is sometimes normal enough to be absolutely absurd, and I've at least got a couple of people who think I'm a decent writer. So why not, right? Well, the whole computer mess has become my excuse, not to mention a big helping of "I'm not good enough" to boot.

And then, just when I think I'm on the brink, I realize there's far too much nonsense in my head to make sense of anything. Like, would you rather hear about the second graders (excuse me - soon to be third graders) I've been spending my week with at our church's Vacation Bible School, the joys of pet-sitting, or this funny thing we call marriage. Or what about friendship again? Or the conversation I had in the elevator today with a woman about how "beauty is pain"?

I think I'm the type of person that doesn't handle options well, and that seems to be a problem in other areas of my life, even beyond blogging.

Take for instance restaurant menus.
Or traveling.
Or hobbies.
Or a career, for goodness sakes.

Too many choices and no idea what to do next...
