Have you noticed an increase in the hits you make on your favorite news site since 9/11?

Yeah, I thought I had that habit kicked too.

Like... am I going to miss news of the world blowing up if I don't hit Drudgereport at least a dozen time a day?

Somebody needs to focus...

See... perfect example of why I was concerned about starting a blog...  Look at how many days since I last posted.

My problem?  I'm a lazy perfectionist.  I desire to craft a thoughtful, correctly spelled, meaningful piece.  Since I know that will take me some time to do that right, and I have so many other things I should be doing, I wind up putting the whole process off.  I guess it's not good enough for me to just post a single daily thought.  :-/

Not that I accomplish all those other needy projects... I wind up bouncing from one thing to another, never finishing any of them (adult ADD).  Then, next thing I know, the day is over and I start looking for something to watch (DVD or TV).  Sure, it's important to input info... but a balanced mind outputs also.

I did have a thought for posting last night (after watching a DVD).  But after thinking about it, I thought, "Wow, this is way too personal!  You never know what friend or family member might read this.  I need to back it off and relate it to a general observation of the human condition."
That's when it turns into a creative writing project (bad memories of high school English kick in), and I think, "That's going to take too much time!".

So here we are.  No insight from me... because I'm a lazy perfectionist.
