its close enough to a pony

On my last post I mentioned that I would start blogging regularly soon. Whoops. For some reason in these hot summer months I just don't feel like it. There. I said it. I don't feel like blogging anymore.

So from now on I'd like for everyone to think of me as an anomaly. Sort of like a Yeti, Bigfoot, or Unicorns. Maybe you'll see me again, maybe you won't.

then you may heart this.

PS-I'm thinking about returning to regular blogging soon. But who knows (except for me)? Some days, I wish I never discovered this thing called "blogging" that you do on this thing called the "internet" where people can't see you do "air quotes" unless you "embed a video".

since abdc season 2 sucks...

burnout

Fellow Bloggers,

When I first started this blog, I intended it to be a mixture of posts of fun things. DVD reviews, TV chat, clothes, cupcake talk, the occasional political post, and any fun or informative happening that was going on in this blogger's life. Unfortunately, I feel that lately my blog just hasn't been what I wanted it to be. Let's face it, I wanted it to be "all that and a bag of chips", but recently I have felt like its just been crumbs. If there is one thing I know for sure it's that my readers don't deserve it’s crumbs. They deserve a whole chip. With a beverage.

I'm afraid to say that I may be suffering from blogger burnout.

This is actually a lot to keep up with. Blogging for myself, then visiting other blogs (which don't get my wrong, I do enjoy.) But what once started out as a hobby, now seems to be taking up a ton of my free time. It has also caused me to lose touch with just writing for myself.

A few days ago I was reading my journal that I kept before I started blogging. In fact it made me want to blog, because I was mentioning miscellaneous things that I thought others may want to read.

In one entry I wrote about a story idea that I had in mind, and to be honest hasn't left since. That was over a year ago.
I've taken blog hiatus's before. But they never really lasted too long. I would still pop up on other's blogs. I'd even pop up on my own, even when I said I was going on a break.

So starting June 1st, I'd like to take a break from the blogging world. It may last one week or one month. I'm really not too sure. But I just feel like I should let you know.

I need to take some time and write that story for that voice that keeps nagging. I owe it to, well, me.

Thank you for all of you lovely comments over these past few months. It's really meant a lot. Also thank you for letting me get a tiny glimpse into your lives through your blogs. It has been wonderful.

Don't worry, this isn't the end of me for good. When I come back I hope to be better and bloggier than ever.

-Steph

Just promise that you won’t hold it against me if I still do Office Quote Thursday. Every one deserves a little Michael Scott in their lives. :)

sex and the city

I was planning on discussing the movie in detail, but to be honest, I'm lazy right now and really don't feel like it. Now, wasn't my honesty refreshing?

Instead, I thought I'd share my movie going experience. Yeah, it is almost more interesting than if I were to dissect every detail of the movie. Almost.

• When I asked for two tickets to see the movie, I was carded. Seriously. You mean to tell me that I don't even look 18 years old?! I handed it to her and said "I'm 23." She just kind of laughed. Thanks a lot.
• My bladder decided to shrink to the size of a walnut. Five minutes into the movie, I had to use the bathroom. I realized that if I didn't go then, I wouldn't have been able to even enjoy the story. When a scene came up that I kept seeing in the previews, I made a quick exit and ran to and from the restroom.
• Forty-minutes later I had to pee. Again. This has never happened before. I apologized to the two women I had to scoot by. I felt really bad that I actually had interrupted them a total of four times. But then I figured I was the one being punished by missing the movie. My guilt quickly went away.
• The movie is coming to an end. Charlotte goes into a restaurant, then spots Big. There is a close up on her face and an alarm goes off. Oh, it didn't go off during your viewing? Followed by the announcement "An emergency has been reported. An emergency has been reported. Please go to your nearest exit." Hubby and I made it through the emergency doors which led outside. Then we walked to the front of the building to see what was happening. On our walk, we passed an elementary school class, with a teacher saying "Did any of you pull the alarm? Did you?" Evidently someone did. We were able to go back inside, and a few minutes later the movie picked up where it left off.

What did everyone else think about the movie itself? I LOVED it. It was really fun to revisit these characters and see what was going on with them now. I kind of wouldn't mind if they did another one. But I tend to have a problem letting things go. I even hate for a book to come to an end. It's much sweeter to feel that these characters are still continuing. Maybe I do need to get a life. Nah. This thought is more fun.
