Hilarious that I decided to pick this month to blog about excuses that keep me from writing considering I’ve got a mountain of excuses keeping me from blogging. All pretty legit too, if I do say so myself. Just call me Lindsey Vonn – the mountain’s proving too much for me. (I’ll admit, I just caught a Yahoo News headline …
If time was money…
…we’d all fall into the exact same financial bracket, wouldn’t we? ‘Cause as much as we love to say – okay maybe I shouldn’t speak for you, scratch that. As much as I like to say, “I don’t have time,” truth is, I’ve got just as much time as anyone else. Excuses. That’s what Tag(g)lines is all about in February …
I’m back, I’m back, I’m back!
After a month-long hiatus, I am back and recommitted to this blogging thing! Commitment isn’t exactly the easiest thing in the world for me – especially if it doesn’t involve immediate rewards. Which is true of blogging. (Unless you count the fact that I fully intend to reward myself with a can of Diet Coke with Lime once I hit …
It’s Saturday and I’m feeling…
Good, ’cause I got an amazing night’s sleep. Guilty, ’cause this is my very first blog of 2010 and it just isn’t going to be an exciting one, my friends. But also, liberated. ‘Cause I’ve decided to give myself the rest of January off from blogging…or at least from doing anything crazy exciting with the blog. It’s what I’ve got …
Yep, he just asked if I’m an elf…
Buddy: First we’ll make snow angels for two hours, then we’ll go ice skating, then we’ll eat a whole roll of Tollhouse Cookie-dough as fast as we can, and then we’ll snuggle. He tugged on his mom’s coat until he got her attention. And then, in complete sincerity, asked, “Mom, are these people elves?” It was all I could do …
Happy Anniversary…to me!
“Why, Melissa, I didn’t know December 19 was a significant milestone for you,” you’re thinking, yeah? Well, okay. It’s not. But December 1 was! December 1 was the six-month anniversary for Tag(g)lines. Yay! “Why didn’t you celebrate the anniversary on the actual date?” you’re now asking, correct? (I know, I’m being rather presumptive with your reactions, aren’t I?) Answer: Uh, …
Hey Town Mouse, the country’s not really so bad.
I was a bad little blogger in November. (See the archives list over to the left?) Okay, not bad. (‘Cause, you know, I thought my Thanksgiving post was kinda nice.) Inconsistent, that’s the better word. Then December came. And – in addition to buying Christmas presents, putting up Christmas decorations, traveling to see family and friends, making Christmas goodies, attending …
Happy Thanksgiving!
The blog and I have been a bit stranger-ly (word?) lately. I could throw out a bundle of reasons why, but really, is a blog full of reasons why I haven’t blogged lately truly any better than no blog at all? So, no excuses. (Although, I have to say, near the top of the list would’ve been my recent trip …
Call me lazy but…
…I am cheating tonight. Because I can, and because, well, I’m busy. I currently have four windows open on my computer screen shouting “Work on me!” while simultaneously my body is saying, “You’ve been sitting all day – get up and do something exercise-ish!” So, one by one I shall complete my work and close the screens in front of …
Embrace the confusion!
Okay, so, I woke up…and I literally could not remember what season it was. Not even kidding here. For no less than a full minute – maybe two, my time estimating skills aren’t so good in the morning – I laid there thinking, “Dude, is it spring? It can’t be summer ’cause I’m wearing my fleecy pajama pants.” Now, lest …
