…sit down to write tonight. It seems as if autumn has finally arrived. It’s cool and grey and the perfect weather to place letters one in front of the other. The only problem has been the drugs. Over the past few days I’ve been affected by the pain medicine and I think I haven’t fully recovered from the anesthesia. So basically whenever I sit down to write something I cannot type. Then, if I manage to make the fingers behave, the words on the page have been the ramblings of a second-grader with ADD and spelling problems. Not my normal way of doing things.
So October is 5-days gone now. The Halloween decorations have all been taken down to make way for Thanksgiving and Christmas stuff. I’m really excited about the holidays this year. Less than three weeks until Spawn of Scarydad Part II The Sequel is released and I can’t wait.
Spawn of Scarydad loved Halloween, by the way. She dressed as Snow White and charmed all the neighbors out of their candy and goodies. Then she ran around the cul-de-sac about 15 times before passing out cold in her costume. I manned the candy bowl. It wasn’t too bad for having had major surgery earlier in the day. Given the circumstances, Halloween was actually pretty good.
So, I’m announcing something of a hiatus but not really. See, writing for the blog is something I really enjoy and something I look forward to doing each day. But at the same time, I’ve sort of built up this expectation of myself to stay disciplined and write stuff several times a week, even if I’ve got nothing going on. That is totally not a problem. Some of the more fun posts and projects have come from evenings where I sat down with no idea what I was going to write about. It’s not that, it’s that very soon, I will be dealing with a newborn and a 3-year-old and a recovering Bride. It’s not that I don’t want to write several times a week, it’s that I don’t know if I’ll realistically be able to.
But what I don’t want to do is announce a “hiatus” and intentionally not write for however long. I’d rather just keep it open-ended and do what I feel like. If I feel like writing every day and I am able to, then that’s what I’ll do. More likely, however, I think you can expect one or two posts per week or longer times between posts. I don’t know. We’ll see what happens. I just felt like warning you that posting frequency might get inconsistent and that’s why.
Well, that’s it for me for tonight.
Take care.
