Blogger Burnout

Some of you may have noticed my absence in blogland as of late. Some of you couldn't give a flying crap. I have been spending ridiculous amounts of time surfing blogs. It was too the point were I came home and turned on the computer and ignored everything. It was my way out of real life. I enjoyed reading what others were up too even if it was what they ate for breakfast. I read blogs to get to know the blog owner. I say blog owner since most of us are not writers nor do we claim to be. It's a place where we can put our thoughts and ideas no matter how screwy they are. While reading I always look for similarities between myself and the blog owner. It's amazing to learn how different we all really are. I can't find one person that is even similar to me in my ways of thinking and life. This is what keeps it interesting. I still can't figure out why reading about people that we will never really know or get a chance to meet is so intriguing. It's something I cannot explain to people in my life. I try to tell them that it's like having an interactive journal with penpals that can let you know their feelings on things that are relevant in your life and theirs.

So, I decided this last week to take it easy and quit worrying that I haven't posted something everyday or commented on all of my friends' sites. I hope you can all understand that sometimes we have to take time for what is "real" in our lives. I have a feeling that I'll be back to posting regularly soon because I still think about things to blog about but sit at the computer and draw a complete blank. I assure you that I really did at one time have something intersting to blog about.

I thought I would throw in a laugh. I found this picture in with some high school stuff. I'm on the right. Check out my Swatch watches on each arm. I think that is my Kung Fu kick ass pose? How about that 80's hair ? Remember those huge owl eye glasses. Good times I tell ya!





Now, if you want to talk about big hair, I had it. This isn't even as big as it got! Please keep in mind that there is a shadow behind my head that makes my hair look much bigger than it actually was. I can't tell you how many hours I spent bent over at the waist scrunching my hair as I dried it. After that, you had to tease it and hairspray the hell out of it. If you got caught in the rain you had to run for cover because you and your hair were done. What a sticky mess that was!

Notice my penchant for jewelry. I have my great grandma's Bavarian crystal necklace on. Not bad with the dress, right? Move on down to my wrists and notice my beautiful gold and silver bracelets on my right arm and my trendy Swatch watch on my left. You can't really see my rings but I'm sure they were shell rings I got in Florida on spring break. Gawd, I was such a fashionista!

Bring on the comments! I'm ready to take a beating (I think)!
