Writer’s Block
3 Comments I’m quite often sitting at my computer, but it rarely occurs to me that I should be spending the time posting to my blog. I mean, I’ve spent this money to host and pay for a domain, and other than the occasional theme change and a post about the new house, my site gets utilised. I’d really like to make more of an effort around here, and I could make all the excuses – work, housework, shopping for groceries, going out – but you know what? Today I did absolutely nothing except sit on my ass, play games, watch TV, then cooked dinner. Why didn’t I take the time to write a blog post? I do have some theories.
1) Twitter. Now that I’m using Twitter pretty much daily, I find myself using that more often to talk about my daily life.
2) Facebook. The same reasons above, I’m using that more often, and thus there’s less that I feel I should be writing about on my blog.
3) Michael. No, it’s not that he prevents me from blogging. It’s more that because he’s in my life, I have someone to share my days with, and again I feel there’s less to talk about in a blog entry.
What do you guys think? For those of you who are regular bloggers, how do you come up with things to say on a daily (sometimes more) basis? I need something to cure this writer’s block.

I don’t blog every day. Or even every other. But I usually just write about whatever I feel like at the time. Sometimes I’ll sit with wordpress open for an hour before anything really strikes me. So my cure for writers block is just to write! You don’t have to write about your day. Write about something you saw six years ago that made you laugh. It’s your blog! Write what you want, when you want.
