Blocked
I’ve tried to come up with something, anything, to write about today and I’ve consistenly drawn a blank at each attempt to sit down and write a blog post.
I start to write a sentence only to stop halfway to look at the garbage spewing across my page. Blogger’s block is a mutha-you-know-what.
I wanted to write about my visit to a funeral home to pay my respects to my friend Peter. Then I grew sad and weepy and I knew I couldn’t finish without red eyes and tear-stained cheeks.
I attempted to talk about Dawson’s new, and very much welcomed, attitude. He hasn’t had a major meltdown in 24 hours.
I know. I just shot that to hell.
I’d love to discuss women’s issues and politics but it seems to always get me into trouble with people who don’t agree with me. So I scratched that out.
I was going to write about my plans this weekend, but I can only say so much about going to a Family Fun Fest with Dawson. Oh yeah, and I could tell you there are train rides, games and face painting fun. See? Nothing earth-shattering or really exciting.
So, here I sit. I’m at work. I should really be working and not writing, but I needed a break from the busy day.
Perhaps it’s time for me to find some topics to talk about, yes?
I know I’m looking forward to relieving the boredom that is called my blog. Wish me luck.
If you have any topic ideas to throw my way, I’d be more than grateful!

I love your blog…I just started reading it a couple of weeks ago
Anyway, I totally know how you feel…I feel like I have to come up with something, but sometimes I’m at such a losss, or the things that I think are neat really aren’t interesting to anyone but me

Hi Dana
Just wanted to let you know that I’ve been trying to accept your rent my blog bid but BE keeps giving me an error message. I even have your welcome post all ready to go! Your bid will expire in 23 minutes. If you’d like, I’ll let you know after I hear back from BE and repost the offer.

Dana–don’t worry too much about getting “in trouble” with people who don’t agree with your views. I read a lot of blogs that I don’t agree with, and frankly, I think that’s more fun. Plus, like you said, there’s a dirth of conservative bloggers out there. Let them have their voice.

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your friend Peter. I completely understand that coping with grief and other things makes it difficult to blog (particularly in a light-hearted fashion). Don’t force the writing, wait until you feel ready to write again.
((hugs))
