Blogging 2008
I've written dozens and dozens of great blog posts in the past few months. In my mind. Usually while hiking or just before falling asleep. A lot of them were well-written, entertaining, and insightful. Unfortunately, none of them have made it onto the intertubes.
I can't count the number of blogs I've seen that haven't been updated for years. Almost always, they end with a post that says, "I haven't blogged in a while--I promise I'll be better from now on." Who know, perhaps this will be another one of those.

Being a good blogger
In the past few months, I've come to realize that 90% of doing something well comes from just giving a shit. I could elaborate, but really this is one of those common sense things that everybody will nod their head at, but doesn't sink in until maybe one day you just learn it for yourself.
At this point, I'm pretty sure I'm not a good blogger. I've got to figure out whether or not I actually care about this, or if I'm just wasting my time on something that feels like a chore rather than a passion.
