I Sure Do Post A Lot

NPW here; just perusing my past entries and I realized I'm well over the 300 posts mark. That gave me pause for a moment. How, I pondered, is it that I have no problem updating this here forum of farce almost every day, and yet sitting down to actually work on some writing that might make me some money proves nearly impossible for me to accomplish?

I didn't have to ponder long before the answer came to me: I'm lazy. No, really, it's as simple as that. Here I can just freestyle, I can wing it, I can pontificate on the most inane, ridiculous, or amusing thing I can think of and then ramble on for a full five paragraph essay. But when I'm working on something with direction? Not so into it. Ok, so good- at least I have that much figured out: sheer laziness.

Then I started to wonder at my complete inability to ever keep a journal or a diary in the past. It's obvious I enjoy writing, why wouldn't I have wanted to fill page after page about my angst-y, drama filled days? Well, duh- journals and diaries are meant to be kept secret, hidden. Why would I want to write hilarious and often apt entries about my life if only I get to read them? Seriously. I don't have to go far to amuse myself, I do it all the time. And if I wanted to keep a secret diary, I don't think I'd choose to do it on the world wide web. This is no livejournal, folks. This here is the real deal.

Second conclusion: I want to amuse the masses.

So basically what it comes down to is that I'm a lazy ass, but if I can make people laugh in my own lazy ass way then at least I can feel I am contributing somewhat to life in general. Here's to all you other lazy asses out there. I tip my hat to you.

Totally get it. Plus, I figure is it my fault that the publishers in this world don't understand the appeal of Dana-speak? Of course not. Not that I've actually tried to write anything lately...

I get it, trust me on that...I used to think that I hated blogging, now it gives me an absurd, and rather geeky high...
