Wow - I was just going through my blog roll and I've noticed that many of my friends blogs out there are inactive. Where are you people? I for one know it's mentally straining to maintain a blog, come up with a creative topic that's not going to bore the 5 regular readers you have, then sit down with some free time to actually write the dang thing. But this masochist won't give up, dammit, and neither should you!
Even though my posts aren't that regular, I refuse to admit defeat. I will continue to pick my brain for oh-so fascinating topics such as sex, drugs and rock 'n roll. Oh wait, I'm a suburban mom now so I guess it will rather be subjects like martial hardship, self-medicating with alcohol and singin' the I'm Getting Old blues. And since I really love to torture myself, I've recently signed on for NaNoWriMo and will be writing a 50,000 word novel (that's 175 words, baby) during the month of November. Yeah right, you're thinking. Well, me too but November's a ways away and probably by that time I'll be snowed in the house anyway. Come join me and we'll be novelists together!! I can already tell mine will be somewhere along the lines of Judy Blume's Forever meets Jim Carroll's (RIP) Basketball Diaries meets whoever wrote Bridget Jones' Diary, but a little low-brow writing lightens the soul, right?
Now off to help needy children communicate.
