A Conversation (Argument?) With My Blog
A quick conversation with my blog this morning:
BLOG: Are you going to write something? (say yes)
ME: Ssh. I'm busy. And I gotta leave in 20 minutes
BLOG: You can write a post in 20 minutes, just write something - anything. Have you looked at your schedule? If you don't write something now, it'll be Friday before I get something new.
ME: Sorry, I need to finish this up. Deadline is Thursday COB.
BLOG: Just finish one these drafts I've been carrying around. Or post to a bunch of links. A Quote n Note - something!!
ME: (Stops typing, turns from other computer) Look. I agree that not every post needs to be a home run. Some of your most read posts were done on-the-fly, but I've got a business to run. I've not gone three straight days without posting-- and you've had nine posts already this month. Take a day off.
BLOG: I just think a new post--
ME: I won't fall into a Loser's Limp (it's in the draft queue), but I won't get into a Blogger Blimp (another draft) either. You work for me (yet another), not the other way around. Take the rest of the day off. I've got work to do.
