Back to basics


I was lazily going through the blog trying to decide whether I like or hate the new look and I realised that, even if I have made it with six posts per month so far, I have not posted anything with much content in 2013 yet, not that this blog ever had much content, but at least there were always a few posts were I could let go the frustrated writer within and go with the fun ironic part of daily life.

Maybe I was putting too much preasure on myself with all the "You have to post more often" thing, maybe it was better to wait for the right story to post, maybe I was doing this all wrong, maybe Lizzy Bennet was right, and I should be “unwilling to speak [write], unless we expect to say [post] something that will amaze the whole room, and be handed down to posterity with all the éclat of a proverb”. When did I stop thinking post-savvy and decided that a quote and a doodle would save this blog from oblivion?

Were those ideas a sign that I was becoming a boring person? The lack of fresh stories had turned my blog cheap. Easy. All in all... BORING. I couldn't remember the last time I posted a "Ten worst things..." and boy! those were fun posts to write.

Is it time for a break?

I don't think I need a break, I just need to set things right, and maybe, if I take this week of holidays from work (if they ever let me) and relax, maybe my fingers will be itching with stories to type yet again, maybe, hopefully.

I'll see you soon, but until then... have fun.

Such is Life
