Blog something

Blog something.

But what to blog about? I don't want to do one of those blogs where people talk about how they've got nothing to talk about. That's fucking sad.

You're getting rusty.

I've totally fallen off the horse. I thought the blog would be a good way to keep my writing skills piqued, but it turns out I do my head in about blog topics most the time rather than, y'know, thinking about work that could get me paid.

I'm typing at about a million miles per hour right now though, so maybe that means I've still got it.

Maybe that means you're so obsessed by not having it, you're gagging to brag about it. What are you now, narcasscistic? You can't even spell it.

Think of something with substance. What's been on your mind lately?

So You Think You Can Dance has been playing on my mind a bit. Like, how did they land on that as the best title? It's a mouthful. Totally not catchy. Did they sit around in a board room meeting and go, "C'mon guys, we need something. Bailey suggested 'Dance Off'; any other ideas?". "Oh! Oh! I know! How about Dance Idol!" "That's been done, what else? Just think... it's contestants who think they can dance. Why don't we call it So You Think You Can Dance?"

Lame. Lame lame. Think harder.

That's the thing - I can think of a ton of things to blog about. But the tone of it always feels the same. Raise topic. Become snarky about topic. Close with a joke.

Isn't that what all writing is?

That's what all bad writing is.

Well, I had an accident this week. On my bike. Was riding home from work, and a taxi driver opened his door right in front of me. Stacked it hardcore, spent five hours in emergency only to be told the doctor couldn't really do anything. Got Maccas on the way home.

That's a bit self obsessed, don't you think?

True. But what's a blog if it's not self obsessed?

Meaningful commentary interspersed with personal anecdotes.

Oh. That's pretty concise when you put it like that. I'll get back to you.
