False Starts
Hrm. I’ve stared this post a few times now. I’ve ranted about my terrible finances, I’ve ranted about details, I’ve ranted about ranting. Now I’m all out of ideas. I had a pretty horrid weekend, I’m having a rough time in both of my jobs, and I’m just not feeling well. Not sick, just not well. As in I feel off-kilter. I’m anxious, nervous, depressed.
This feeling will leave me, I’m sure of it. But on the whole? I’m feeling like a terrible father and employee. This is sucky. No one wants to read about this. Let’s talk of nicer things tomorrow.
Final note: Is this what blogger burnout feels like?
Go read a much more interesting and funny post over at Jim's site.

Yes! You've described how I've been feeling lately and why I haven't updated my own site in weeks. It's a serious case of Blah. I don't know if it's the weather changing, seasonal depression, general burnout, or what. But I've really felt off lately. I hate to say it, but I'm glad I'm not the only one.
Yeah, I think I know what you mean, man. You feel like you need some sort of change, but nothing comes to mind. Thats why I'ma job huntin...
I'll tell you what blogger burn out is to me. Blogger burn out is when you find blogging, blog madly for a 12-18 mos, then stop. This is what I experienced. I blogged almost daily for quite a while, then I just completely lost interest. It didn't help that I was trying to write my own CMS. Between the two I just had no drive to write, which led to no drive working on the CMS. You have blogged daily for, what, 2-3 years? Maybe its time you let yourself back off some. I say this for partialy selfish reasons. I would hate to see one of my favorite reads go dark.
Thanks for the kind words guys, but I'm feeling much better today.
I call myself a writer, so I must write.
