February 17, 2005Blog-as-Tamagotchi
Blogs are voracious, hungry beasts when it comes down to it. No sooner have you written a post than it goes cold, and your blog needs yet another top-up. On endless loop, your blog develops a demanding persona, ungenerously demanding fresh blood NOW. Somehow, Other People find the time to blog when they have newborn babies and small, mobile children, or high-powered Scary Jobs, or other such real-life distractions. I, on the other hand, am finding it hard enough to squeeze blogging in between sleeping, sightseeing, eating and exchanging currencies. Perhaps I am not a multitasker. Apparently, you could leave a 'sick' Generation 1 Tamagotchi untended for two days before it carked it. Thank god this blog is a little more hardy :) Comments
Tiff, You are doing very well with your voracious, hungry beast. Your blog is awesome, in fact. I carried a travel diary right around S.E. Asia and it never saw the light of day. Patrick Posted by: Patrick on February 17, 2005 04:37 PMP, That's very kind! I have many, many empty diaries (travel and otherwise) that stretch back for years. My first o/s trip diary (age 10) began with the fateful entry: 'London is very cold, but I saw rabbits at the airport in Paris. We did not get out of the plane.' Sadly, I didn't manage to get any further than that!! Consider this my attempt to atone for past sins :) Posted by: Tiffany on February 18, 2005 04:37 AM |
