Limitations and Other Nonsense

I had a much better title for this post. I am so brain dead that I cannot remember it. I am weeks behind on my reading. Actually, not the reading but the commenting. I have kept up on everything but that. I feel very bad about it. I really do. It makes me feel guilty, not because it is expected but because I love the stories I follow and wish I had the time. Suffice it to say I will try and make it up. Been thinking it would be nice if I could just set aside time, say Saturday night after work, just to read and comment. Once a week. Possibly doable. Then maybe I would be able to focus on my own writing. An hour a day. At least.


I am staring down the barrel of another surgery. I've put it off but it is getting worse. It drains me. I'm in pain. I overdo my computer time especially considering I do it for 8 hours at work. And yet I can't turn away from it.

Other real life issues have compounded the insomnia issue. I won't even go there. If I stick my head in the sand maybe I'll escape notice.

Oh yeah! The original title was Hump Day! It's my hump day anyway.

Haven't done one of these in awhile...



You Have a Wild Imagination






You can think or dream anything. You have very vivid and colorful thoughts.

You have an easygoing and calm attitude. People can count on you to take life in stride.

You are chill to the point of being a little lazy. It's hard for you to get motivated at times.

You are a very emotional person. It's pretty easy to touch your heart.

  1. I know what you mean about feeling bad about the not commenting. I have no good reason and I haven't been commenting lately either, just haven't felt like it/haven't had much to say.

    Don't worry about it. Hopefully you'll give yourself permission to let the commenting go. You sound like you've got a lot on your plate right now and the most important thing is to take care of yourself.

  2. Lunar you are among those I have yet to comment on. I've read your updates in my Reader...guilt abounds and it is self-imposed.

    I know I am not the only one on earth who has RL stuff to deal with. Sometimes it just helps to air it out and then let it go.

    thank you...

  3. Well I hope you know my theory and it helps. I just like seeing people lingering and actually reading, so don't worry about the comments on my stuff. I just hope you find some enjoyment from it. The last thing I want is for it to be associated with guilt or obligation!

    So tell yourself not to be too hard on yourself.

  4. Oh believe me the way I feel is strictly self imposed with regard to commenting. I love to express my feelings and I love LOVE your story! I never feel obligated to comment...I want to comment.

  5. Another surgery coming up? :( Whenever it is, best of luck.

    You've got a lot on your plate right now, and sometimes it can be difficult to comment as it is. Happens to me all the time--I'll read a really great post, but then I'll get to the blank comment form and have absolutely no idea what to say and no energy to think of what to say, and that's just on a regular day with nothing too stressful happening in my life. Really, if you've managed to keep up on reading with everything going on in real life, that's impressive in itself :)

    Heheh. I got the same result for that blogthing.

    Take care of yourself, and good luck with everything!

  6. Oh sorry to hear you are in pain! if surgery is the only exit, then go for it! Don't postpone it, it could get worst!
    Good luck and don't worry about commenting, RL and your health always come first!

    Take care and good luck!!

  7. Van, yes I've been putting it off, the surgery.

    I do that as well, read to catch up and then think get too overwhelmed. And I do feel bad because I want to support those stories, let the author know how much their stories mean and how they make me think or feel. Time passes and I almost feel like it is too late to comment.

    I love blogthings...

  8. S@ndy, I have postpponed it for several reasons, not the least of which is my job. I will get it done before it gets worse, that much is certain.

    Thanks!

  9. Oh no, not another surgery :( Hopefully this will be the last one and though you'll be in pain you might really need the down time anyway; it rejuvinates the soul.

    And don't worry about commenting either, do it when you can.

  10. Muzegoddess, it had better be the last one...it won't be as invasive as the first so my downtime will be much less. I just worry...job security and all that.

    And thank you...

  11. Oh no - more surgery :( All I can offer is the sooner it happens, the sooner you are on the other side of it, healing and getting better. Work will just have to deal, put you getting better first.

  12. Goodbye_sun I actually informed my manager about the need for a second surgery. Of course they said that I need to put myself first. However things are...unsure I guess is the best way to put it...at work. I will definitely do it before things get worse. Timing is everything though.

    Thanks! I saw your finger post...frankenfinger eh?

Thanks for leaving me your thoughts ~ they always mean a lot.

In Perfect Harmony

In June of 2007 I posted my first chapter of Dark December. Since that time, the story has evolved and changed in part through a collaboration that developed and lasted over 4 years. During this time a friendship was forged. Thank you Beth, for unwavering friendship, support, and generosity over these last 4+ years. It has been a journey I will never forget.

In dreams, I'll promise you'll never be alone
How much I wish your voice could send me home
