Seven Quick Takes Friday : Yes, I'm still alive. Shocker.



--- 1 ---

Number of times I have thought about blogging in the past month: at least a dozen.
Number of times I have actually blogged in the past month: zero.
(I don't count that naggy little thing about Word and Question, which I probably needn't have bothered with...)

Topics I have considered for blog posts in the last month : Seven Quick Takes, Daybook,
Seven Quick Takes, Daybook, Seven Quick Takes, Daybook,.........
Lather, rinse, repeat. As you can see, Quick Takes finally won. Because I don't even have to answer any questions.

Oh, wait. I lied in the last take. Because I also considered doing the "2011 in recap" meme. For about 17 seconds.

I am very tired today. On Wednesday we drove 5 hours each way to a family funeral (RIP, Dick...) Yesterday I changed beds and cleaned bathrooms, drove to a not-so-nearby town to serve as a reader for a Quiz Bowl meet, and went to choir practice. Today it all caught up with me.

Fortunately, I can say "Nine!" Which is counting down days until our Stratford visit. I intend to alternate reading in the jacuzzi with sitting in a booth sipping Strongbow. Bliss.

In preparation for Stratford, I just requested eight books from the library. I suspect that if they all come in, that might have been a little over-ambitious. But I couldn't whittle the 20+ books on my list down to a readable-in-a-long-weekend number. I'll just have to renew some of them.

Since I have now put together a (very rudimentary) semblance of a post, I think I'll go and take a nap. See you!

A nap sounds lovely right about now, and I would say you've earned one! So good to hear from you !

I'm so sorry you had to be "naggy" with W&Q (although I thought it was pretty cute--LOL!). I could do something like your #1, too:

Number of Times I Have Thought about Blogging in the Past Month: 100

Number of Times I Have Actually Blogged in the Past Month: 4

And I had to look that up because I really didn't remember! =P
