How to be a terrible blogger

1. Is it bad that I have only been doing this for a couple of months and already feel like I don't have things to write about? Don't answer that.

2. You go weeks (plural) without posting anything. My bad.

3. You feel like you have writer's block every single time you think of your blog.

4. You think your life needs to be more interesting, and when it is, that's when you'll write. In the meantime, keep doing whatever it is you do all day that's so uninteresting.

5. Start writing a post. Pause to read the same Strawberry Shortcake book to your kid for the 234038th time.

6. Conveniently forget to take any photos when you do fun things with your family. (The Clay County fair was fun, Grace loved the animals and Joe loved his chocolate covered bacon, thanks for asking.)

7. Forget about your blog for awhile until you read a friend's. Think, "I should blog sometime." Then go back to reading people's obnoxious 'the facebook changes are ruining my life again' comments that are blowing up your newsfeed.

8. Spend less time on the internet, so less time blogging. This one is probably healthy, so I won't feel guilty. (Not that I lose sleep over my lack of writing, but you know.)

9. Stop writing for a bit because you don't feel like your work is good enough to send out to cyberspace. Push that publish button anyway, if for no other reason than to show that writer's block who's boss.

10. I don't really have anything else, I just felt like there should be a number ten. Happy Thursday.
