Other Things That Keep Me From Blogging
Aside from life in general, you know the part where you have to work, relate to your loved ones and take care of personal health and hygiene, there are a few things that discourage me from blogging.The biggest is actually the smallest. I hate the Blogger verification thing in the comments. I hate it enough to blow it up. Those twisted font word jumbles that I NEVER type right the first time are more annoying than a mosquito in the ear. Late at night. When you have to get up early. To blog before your day really begins.
Somebody tell me what you gain from annoying your readers, please. I've gotten about five spam comments in two and a half years of blogging. What's the big deal? My Gmail box gets over a hundred pieces of spam a day. I promise to never include that on my blog.
I would have far more time to read and comment even the blogs that could be easily edited down to three short paragraphs, if I didn't have to deal with the typing quiz. A quiz designed to make me fail. I promise to keep my posts short. Even if I have to write in installments
I was forced to switch to the new Blogger even though I'm not assured that it won't screw me up on my Mac. I was going to promise to switch when I get assurance from Mac users that it works seamlessly. Something tells me I just found a new reason not to blog.
I hope your weekend is going well. I promise mine is.
