Maintaining

Filed in: blog

I have to remember that when I ignore the blog, spam sets in, almost like a reminder of my frequent “blog atrophy…” I still remember coming in after an absence and finding 65 porn spam comments…took forever to clear them out.

Truth is, I’m barely treading water these days. I’m still not writing much because my day job is consuming me. Too much work for too little staff. I have been working on projects this weekend, and still have lots to do tonight. I’ve also been ill, which took the wind out of my sails Friday and most of yesterday.

But I had a long talk with one of my friends/spiritual advisors last night. I’m going to be more mindful of the good things in my life, and spend less time moaning about all that I can’t get done.

But I’ve also JOINED a couple of groups lately, and I’m a little befuddled about it. One has had good results, which I’ve mentioned here before (I think). Back in December, I joined Weight Watchers, so far I’m down 10 pounds, with way too much to go. But working on it. I also joined eHarmony, sort of a last ditch effort at online dating. I’ve had lousy luck with the other sites, and not always because of my looks/weight, although that’s been an issue with a lot of guys.

This is to be expected, and I always post my picture, usually full length. If this is going to be a problem, I don’t want either of us wasting our time. I don’t mind if guys don’t want someone overweight; we like what we like. I have my own physical preferences as well, although I try not to rule anyone out because of the way he looks.

Usually, I don’t have to. I have enough trouble finding a match that works above the neck. For some reason, I seem to intimidate men.

ANYWAY…I’ll try to blog more. Right now I have to review a manuscript for tomorrow. More later. Promise.
