This Is Why I’m A Bad Blogger

January 14, 2008 · 5 Comments

I can’t remember anything. There, I said it. I’m forgetful, and I think I’m too young to be.

At least three times, yesterday, I told myself to file something away in my brain to blog about, later. Today, when I get a little break, I can’t remember any of these things. Gah!

I do remember thinking that I should start a blog, anonymously to protect him, with the theme of “things my boyfriend says that are extremely funny and probably even more so if taken out of context.” I think there’s one like that, already, though. Surely I wouldn’t be so creative. Alas, I can’t remember any of the funny things he said that prompted such a whim.

So, I’m forgetful and not very creative. Yay! That makes this blog just like 90% of the other blogs out there. Sweet! I always wanted to fit in.

    That happens to me all the time, too. I started keeping a notebook handy to jot ideas down. This is how you’ve been lucky enough to read about things like the crazy stuff people wear in DC. I’m sure my readers are thanking me.

    As for the “Things My Boyfriend Says,” you’re right – there’s already one like that (I link to it on my site), but it’s not updated for months and months at a time (oooh, maybe they broke up), so if you start one and update it regularly (no pressure on Jason, though!), you’d be ahead of the game!

    You know? I think I used to do the notebook thing, too. Of course, I can’t remember if I did, or not. The past few weeks of work have completely fried my ability to have meaningful brain functioning power. Thanks for reminding me to do that.

    Maybe I will start it. He was less than thrilled with the idea, though. Now, I’ve talked about it, though, and everyone will know it’s me.

    You are a good blogger b/c you try.

    And you are cute.

    And I know that I like reading anything that isn’t work.

    Me too! I do that all the freaking time. I think, “oh, I’ll blog about that” and then 20 mins later, I can’t remember what that thing was.

    We’re only like 28 y/o! No way we should already be forgetting things!

    We can start a club, OK?

    Or maybe we’ll forget about starting the club so it’ll never really happen :o )

    Just make shit up. I’m pretty sure that’s what most of us do anyway.

    What?
