Missing Weblogging

Lloyd’s prompt: “How long can you go without having to post on your weblog? Days? Weeks? Months? Do you miss it somehow? Or not?”

Somehow, I managed to get into this current groove of flipping everyday. And I have to say, I like it. So, now, I don’t want to miss one day.

However, just recently, I missed 5 days because my weblog and website were down due to webhosting issues. I did miss weblogging. When I was writing, it was hard to think of new ideas. But just a few days after not having the weblog, I started thinking of new topics to write about. In fact, I ended up writing an entry on paper for when I got back to blogging.

How long could I go without a weblog? Realistically speaking: forever. I mean, if I absolutely had to, I could stop. Anytime. I’m not addicted to it.

If I’m not addicted, then how come I wrote an entry on paper? That’s because I knew I was getting my weblog back soon. But yeah, that does sort of make me contradict myself. Let’s say I was on vacation, away from the computer. I think I could probably go a week without writing anything. But after 7 days, I think I would have to write something.

Before I got into this 7x a week groove, I could easily go a few days without weblogging. However, for now, I’ll repeat that I don’t want to miss one day.
