I'm finding this particularily true now that I am a parent. Anyway, if you do start posting again, trust I'll be there too. You are better than reality television any day :)<BR/><BR/>Kat,<BR/><BR/>I'm amazed you juggle as much as you do. I've found that writers, social or not, are observers. Some observe from the inside and some observe from the outside.<BR/><BR/>I kind of gave up on Web stats. It seems that most people that stumble onto my blog are looking for porn or places to buy mechanical monkeys playing cymbals. But I suppose everyone needs a hook :)Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07838683246636045823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861874.post-74042881446214721802008-04-16T06:48:00.000-07:002008-04-16T06:48:00.000-07:00I am social, more so in life than blog world mostl...I am social, more so in life than blog world mostly because I entertain real people five and six at a time, here things come in ones and its really hard to keep up. But every time I try to give up blogging, I miss the people who's blogs I read. Do you ever check your stats Tim? I bet you'll find there are many people that read your blog and just don't comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861874.post-3657316186954494872008-04-16T06:05:00.000-07:002008-04-16T06:05:00.000-07:00I admire you Tim. The bug analogy was so perfect....I admire you Tim. The bug analogy was so perfect. I don't know how you do it. Seriously... I just can't seem to come back to it. Paritially for the reasons you mentioned. I can't get into the community. I used to. I really liked the blogs I read, I just couldn't keep up with it all. A new person would come in and initally I was all excited to have the opportunity to get to know someone new... but... then... every new person was a new blog to read and comment on and respond to comments and try to engage in witty banter. I can't maintain a lot of friendships at once, not in the blog world and NOT in the REAL world. Maybe it's a bit selfish, but I just can't take an equal interest in the lives of many people. And apparently, I don't mind that they don't take an interest in me. <BR/><BR/>I'm still reading yours. I don't comment often, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate what you've written. I will celebrate with you when you reach 1000. Without a doubt, I will still be here reading every word.Naughti Biscottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954505278010003963noreply@blogger.com
