Bloggy blahs

I can't explain this. I'm having problems right now. Not bad problems. Just ... problems.

Problems with the blog, if you really must know. I think I have enough stuff to write or ponder about. But right now I'm having mental blocks about reading. What happened is that I fell behind on my blog reading when we went out for our trip to the lake last week. It was only two days or so. But since then, I don't know ... I've done a little blog reading. But not a lot.

Can't explain why. The Olympics, OK, maybe that's a factor. But you know how much I love the Stanley Cup playoffs, and I did try to keep up during that time despite watching everything on ice I could find. And I did keep up for the most part. So maybe the Olympics has nothing to do with it. But I feel pressed for time.

Maybe I've got a touch of the blues, with summer nearly over and the fall onslaught of sports work nearly here. It doesn't usually bother me, and you know I like covering football. So ... maybe it's not that either. The John Edwards thing. I had thoughts on that, at least as a jumping off point. Stuff at work.

Even my visit to my mom last week, on our way home from our trip. She wanted me to stay longer--but I was getting very tired and just wanted to go home. We'll go down and visit her tomorrow, and this time we'll put aside more time. That's been bothering me, too.

Just don't feel motivated right now. Just don't feel a lot of things. If I knew where the switch sits, I'd flick it. I know it happens, and I know I'll snap out of it before long. Then I'll be happier. Not yet, though.
