Lofty Goals: I want to waste your time.

I love to hate blogs. I love to read them because they can 1. Make me Laugh (Dance, Clown! Dance!) 2. Teach me New Things (and make me feel inferior and want to lie down). I also get really irritated after, like, an hour of reading blogs – because while, I just sat down to check out what Heather B. Armstrong has balanced on her dog’s head today, I proceed to be led like a lemming to fifteen other blogs and all the while I should be working on my own. Ironic, no?
The University Professor suggested that I needed to be social media savvy. I need to demonstrate that I can use Facebook and Twitter and LinkedIn to promote my writing. I, essentially need to prove that I can waste peoples time too! Way!
Not that there are not a million other things to distract me from my dire need to earn a living. My cat is in the next room singing an unholy aria that announces there will be something to clean up soon.
My office looks like a paper monster vomited.
I forgot my Grandfather’s birthday.
I wish I could get it out of my head that River’s Cuomo called blogging stupid.
