Blogging gets boring


Lately, I've been spending way too much time in the coffeeshop section of Google groups which I stumbled on a month ago. It's kind of a wasteland, but I get sucked in by people who want tips or readers for their blogs. The thing that's so annoying and weird is that half the time people don't post a link to their blog so you kind of get why they need help. Some blogs I read there are pretty cool but suffer from being over promoted and some just suck. By over promotion I mean when people post their link every few hours despite there being no new blog content. I don't get that. I guess people are just hard up for readers and need comments to feel good about what they write. Not me, I never get comments and yet I blog away like a busy beaver because I enjoy it. I truly have no idea why, either.

Uggghhh!! I now have to meet up with Harry Potter girl at some point this week to give her back her book before she moves. This got me thinking about how I was seeing this real idiot last summer who never gave me back my special edition Kid A CD. That still pisses me off, but I know that the girl is an emotional nutjob and Kid A was probably the best thing anyone had ever given her. I don't usually like to throw people under the bus, but with her I see no problem with it. I got that CD from someone very special and it pisses me off that this girl now has it. Oh well.

Today I need to get out of the house and soak up summer's last remaining goodness. I can't believe it'll be over soon. Then the blackness of fall will be here as violent as a spooked horse. I really don't want fall to happen this year. Unless I win the lottery or something, it's going to just be the same long, cold trial that last autumn was. Winter is OK for some reason, but fall, a season I used to absolutely love, has really lost it's luster. Maybe this year, with my new job, it'll be cooler than last year, but right now I can't see that being the case. Anyway, models are coming back full force.

The difference between your blog and the coffeeshop addicts is that people actually read your blog. We may not comment, but we're here for you. Did you finish Harry Potter? Opinions? As for the nutjob ex, the bright side is at least you have something entertaining to blog about :). Happy Monday!

i wrote something short about people not giving shit back once. it was one of the only things i was really proud of even though it wasn't great. the coffeeshop is pretty useless but it's all i've found to try to find useful people. like you.

No Jane I haven't finished the first Harry Potter book yet. I probably will today or tomorrow. I'd like to, it's a good read.

My favorite Harry Potter book just happens to be the next movie which they delayed.

The Half-Blood Prince. Terrible name, incredible content.
