Blog Blues
I’ve noticed that the blog has had a big drop in activity lately. I don’t know if people are simply busy, if I’m losing readership, if I haven’t been blogging about anything worth discussing, or what. It’s probably a combination of a lot of things. I’m feeling really burned out on blogging lately and it appears I’m mostly just shouting into the void anyway. Maybe I should take a break? I don’t know.
I’m just…uninspired.
Enjoy this article?

Late to the party, as usual, but i’ll chime in as well. I’m a frequent reader and an occasional/rare commentor (commenter? or? sounds sort of evil…The Commentor) and yeah, if you’re getting burnt out, feel free to take a break. I have no idea why traffic has gone down but I would wager that it has nothing to do with your content, but it’s due to the fact that most of your readers are grown-ups, and unfortunately, things like work, babies, houses, and whatnot get in the way.
I check in almost daily, but I’m sure those who don’t still enjoy popping in once a week to see what’s going on in Freakgirl land. Because, really, your blog is the F*(&ING FROSTING ON THE INTERNET! Emily’s spot on, comparing it to a personalized little Daily Show.
I know you didn’t intend for this to turn into a big ol’ compliment fest, but there were three blogs that eventually inspired me to start my own. Two of them were by college friends, and the third was by a hilarious girl from Jersey whom I had never met.

How dare my readers grow up!

I’m also guilty of not posting most lately. I’ll use the excuse of being busy at work with a site redesign launching in 2 weeks and being busy at home with a baby launch in about 3! I do read still every day and I also check your flickr page for kitty pictures because I’m that much of a stalker ;).

I’m a stalker, too, then, because I check your flickr page to see how preggers you are looking lately.

You know, it just occurred to me. You know what you haven’t done in a long time? Ask Freakgirl. Any interest in doing one of those? I guess you’d have to do a call for questions.

Yeah, nobody sends me questions anymore. I guess I solved the world’s problems. Yay me.

no way—I’m sure SOMEONE has a roommate’s room-pooping cat SOMEWHERE!!!!! HAHAHAHA :)

It’s me, isn’t it? I haven’t read for a couple of weeks. It’s nothing personal! I’ve just been busy. ;-) Please don’t stop blogging, ever.
