un-titled out
hey-o how is it february already?
ok, let’s talk about what the heck is going on with my blog and either a) retire before it turns into a completely dead blog or 2) suggest ways to get me writing again*. i couldn’t tell you why i have dwindled into a nothing sandwich for keeping up with this; i can’t even get myself around to doing a decent KABLAMO in november, which should be a reasonable ask of myself.
maybe i’ve gotten to the point after nearly 20 years (!!!) where i just have run out of material, LOL.
to be fair, i’ve really let go of much of anything social related. i post to instagram sparingly and twitter not even as much. if i can’t even microblog, i guess full on macroblogging is way too much to ask? or have i decided that my life is actually not that interesting and who would want to know more about it?
i wonder if there’s some connection to all the emails i write throughout the day – am i so burnt out from writing emails that i can’t bring myself to writing for fun? is this like when you don’t read for fun while you’re in college because you just can’t deal with reading anything after trying to figure out the symbolism behind 42 poems in a collection compiled by someone your prof knew from 1962?
(i have been reading a lot lately, if that means anything. but i’ve also been doomscrolling a lot as well, so i’m not sure what to make of anything.)
********
on another note, i’ve started training for the earth day half marathon in two and a half months. here’s hoping that it’s warmer than 25ยบ and not windy! that was miserable.
i have integrated speed work into my weekly runs, which has actually made my weekend long runs reasonably “easy” (knock on wood). this is what they’ve been trying to tell me for years; i should have listened earlier! welp, it’s getting warmer out, so more good news on the running front. that’s all i’ve got for a run update!
*i also just renewed my hosting, so i feel like i need to keep this up for at least another year and get the most out of the money i spent.
