Nothing

by Jodifur on April 20, 2007

Is there anything more intimidating then hitting new post and staring at the screen, with the cursor blinking? And thinking I have nothing to say? Nothing interesting is happening to me. I'm not funny. There is nothing there.
Topics I have considered and rejected are:
1. How I'm trying to lose 10 pounds for the gazillionth time and nothing is working. And I hate my scale.
2. Doug is looking for a new job. Anyone need a good web designer, or know anyone who needs a good web designer? Because when your spouse is miserable and there is nothing you can do to help, well, that is just miserable.
3. My upcoming birthday, which is going to be spent sans husband because he will be away on a business trip, unless # 2 happens right away.
4. Michael now speaks in paragraphs, not sentences. The other day he said, "I'm messy. I need a napkin. Follow me." Just like that, clear as day. This kid is 2 going on 16.
5. I have a phone interview for a new job at 9:30 am. Let's hope Michael will sit still and watch Cars for 30 minutes so I can be somewhat intelligible. I'm not sure I want the job, but it would be nice to have an option. Who am I kidding? Michael is going to spend the whole time saying "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy."
6. How pitiful is it that I am dying to see Legally Blonde, the musical? It's not going to be any great piece of art, but they keep playing the same song from it on the Sirius Broadway Channeland it's kind of catchy and stuck in my head.
But even with all these topic ideas, I still can't pull a post out to save my life. Good thing it's Friday. Maybe something post worthy will happen over the weekend. We have no plans, except to go to Total Wine. The wine fridge is empty, and that is a total crises in this house.

Legally Blond, the musical, huh? I’m not sure what I think of you anymore. lol

Zoe has started linking multiple sentences together too. It’s so strange when they say something… and you have to look at them and for a minute think “oh my, when did another actual person start living here with us?”

Good luck with the phone interview. I was on the phone this morning for work and Emily was at her most whiney and clingy the entire time. Now, granted, this is not a good day for her, but STILL. Clearly she could tell that I didn’t/couldn’t pay attention to her for those 5 minutes and so ramped up her requests for attention right! now! 12 more minutes until nap time.

This is the third blogger–not including me (it’s happening to me too)–that is having the same problem. Are we now guilty of seeking drama or excitement in our lives in order to make our blogs more read-able?

Make Michael write a book, sell it, and you both can quit your jobs!

While talking to someone in the office (yes, I was driving) I mentioned I was playing “phone tag”.

To which someone yelled from the back seat “WHAT’S PHONE TAG?”
