Taking a Break

I'm burnt out on blogging. When I first started doing this thing eight years ago it was a way of venting my frustration at the direction the country was going, but lately it's just become an excuse to bitch about life and repost pictures of men in various stages of undress.

I'm over it. I need a break.

I don't know how long this will last. It may be days, or weeks, or even months until I'm fully back into it. I may still post occasionally if I happen to run across something online that I think is share-worthy, but the scheduled features are done.  I may pass on some interesting tech tidbit I happen to run across, or opine on politics now and then, but even there I'm suffering from severe outrage exhaustion. At this point I can't even go through all my politics feeds without hitting "mark all as read." The level of stupidity infecting this country on all levels has left me emotionally and mentally drained.

So keep checking back.  I may surprise you.

  1. I am sorrowful, but I understand.
    I hope you merely need a break and will come back – soon.
    I will stop by from time to time to see.

  2. BUMMER! but i totally get it. i'm also gonna continue to stop by on a regular basis with the hope that you will throw us a bone. 😉 hope you guys have a great summer.

  3. I will also miss you. I'll keep checking back every once in awhile looking forward to more critters and inked up dudes. Oh, and the rants too.
    Peace.

  4. I'm with all who will miss your blog but understand how difficult it is to do everyday. Now that our country seems to be going completely crazy, with more and more wanting their god to rule everyone else, it's time to do a "Larry Ellison" and buy an island somewhere. Oh, I forgot, we have no money.

  5. I understand. I have given up watching MSNBC for the same kinds of reasons. The level of idiocy is just too high to put up with anymore. Keep in touch.

  6. I have always been impressed with your ability to post so often on so many topics. I love your attitude and outlook. I will miss you so much but will check to see if you have posted frequently. Glenn and I are always here in Los Angeles, and you have my email address. A big hug for both of you. Mike Wilson and Glenn Miller

  7. Right there with you, and I've only been at it for five years! But don't totally go away. . .You're one of my few dailys! Rest up, and thanks for the entertainment.

  8. As a long-time reader, just wanted to let you know that I will miss your blogging, but I get where you're coming from. It is always nice to find someone else in this country who shares my political views, religious views and sanity. Oh, and similar taste in men! I wish you and Ben the best.
